Have to share my wonderful news... I've not been on this board for awhile as I've been busy being a foster mom - but not to kittens, instead a darling set of siblings! For their privacy I'll refer to them as Bunny (9), Bear (8), and Monkey (6), two girls and a boy. We will hopefully be...

Well, Sasha came out of the radiation therapy for her cancer just fine. She did well during the treatments and her one month follow up was very promising. But on Sunday morning she had a 10-15 sec grand mal seizure.  It was very upsetting for us but she has been normal since it happened. I...

Two weeks after I lost my Angel Kitty Kinko I got the news that my littlest sweetheart, Sasha, has Neurofibrosarcoma. It's extremely rare and in an unusal spot (her nose).  They believe radiation therapy will work but I'm uncertain of the procedure and if she might be radioactive after her...

About three weeks ago we noticed a lump on our smaller female's nose. You could easily touch it without bothering her, no discharge, no respiratory or smell issues - all in all just an odd bump on the nose. She tends to poke around where she shouldn't so the vet thought it might be a cut or...

My little champion... Diagnosed with small cell lymphoma in July. He always had very sensitive kidneys. Many ups and downs. Diagnosed with HCM, CRF, probable pancreatitis, and probably mega colon. He fought hard - went to very visit, took every needle and probe, allowed every scan; in the...

Not sure if this is where this should go but I wanted to start a thread on Kinko's two month progress as well as have any one else with a cancer kitty to chime in. I have found this site to be very helpful but have never found enough threads. The more information the better I figure and I would...

So poor little Kinko needs to remain separated from his brother and sisters. One reason is he can't groom them, another is I need to track how much he is eating and his bathroom habits, and finally he is just a little too delicate to be near them. But we want to make him as happy and...

Since the second surgery it's been a little up and down. One weekend of heavy vomiting and we have discovered Kinko suffers from constipation. A change in diet (Miralax and pumpkin) has seemed to help him quite a bit. In addition to that I've begun Sub-Q fluids daily at home as he seems...

Well, two weeks after Kinko had a hairball obstruction removed and biopsies done (he has small cell lymphoma) there was another obstruction caused by a kink from where the biopsy in the intestine healed. Poor boy had to go under the knife two days after he got his stitches out. Our vet has...

Hello! Okay so as some of you know one of my cats has just been diagnosed with small cell lymphoma. I'm switching him to the Royal Canin Z/D combined with Nature's Variety in Duck, Rabbit, Venison formulas. I also have a cat named Harley who had struvite bladder stones removed last year and...

This is going to be a slightly long post - but I'm hoping some of you with more experience can give me some feedback or advice into what may be going on with my cat. About a month ago my cat began vomiting and had diahrrea about once a week. Often there were hair balls in it but it was all his...

I'm going to broach a very unpopular topic with pet parents, one that I have been slightly critical of myself. But, I am honestly at a point where I think my cat needs to be put on some type of prozac to calm him down. Harley was a very sweet cat until he was fixed. Then he became skittish and...

So my darling skittish cat Harley has begun to defecate and urinate all over the furniture and the house. At first I thought he was stressed as we had moved around some furniture plus a neighborhood cat began spraying our door. I've tried the Cat Attract, tried the Feliway, tried other herbal...

A little back story - when my husband and I moved into our townhome complex nearly 3 years ago, we saw 3 little kittens that for the life of me I couldn't get near (2 b&Ws and one dilute calico). Each time I would try and coax them they would run into a fenced/boarded off empty lot that is...

Both of my new kittens are starting to loose their baby teeth. Sasha was licking her mouth in a funny way and when I lowered her jaw i saw one fang just dangling on. I couldn't pull it as it seemed to still be slightly attached so I figured she would either swallow it or it would fall off. Then...

I have some questions regarding a purchase of a used PS3 and was wondering if anyone knew how to find the correct California Law regarding used items or if any lawyers here had advice on how to proceed. My husband bought a PS3 for cash online that was said to work perfectly. The seller tells my...

... And the pet rescue that organized it. So first off, it took over 3.5 weeks for this rescue to finally do their job and set up an appointment for me. I paid an additional fee to the rescue to get a reduced rate spay/neuter and the woman in charge just kept brushing me off. I would set up...

OMG! The funniest thing happened! So my husband and I like to "squeeze" our cats to hear them give those indignant squeals. It's akin to what the engineers are doing in the cat yodeling video. Anyway, I picked up Harley and gave him a quick squeeze and he let out the loudest (pardon my...

About 2 days ago Chloe started to spit up yellow foam. I called the vet and they asked about her bathroom habits and if she was eating - which both seemed fine. So they told me that if she was eating and going regularly then she may just have a hair ball blockage. Well, tonight she vomited her...

So the other day my husband and I were out of the house for about 12 hours. We had filled bowls and everything and made the bedroom comfortable for the kittens. When I got home, Kinko was on the stairs as he usually is, I turned the corner and Chloe greeted me with her chirps. And then guess...
