Well it's Saturday. How is Tangerine doing? Still nervous?

I hardly doubt putting the cats "nose" in her own pee or crap is going to make her do it more but it's just plain wrong. Why is your cat "living" in your bedroom, anyway?

and they tell us cat food is healthier than table scraps

Wow this is strange!!! My cat sleeps under my bed and I often time hear snoring from her!!! I thought my cat was the only one! I guess not!

Thanks, Tangerine. Your advice as been very helpful. Now that I read your post, I remember reading it somewhere in the beginning when this thread first started. I hope your cat gets well soon. Looks like you have more on your plate than even I do. I think I am going to talk to my vet about a...

I guess she's doing it b/c she's been sick. (She's got fatty liver). She never had this problem before. I am trying hard not to lose faith. She's suffering really badly. I am starting to wonder if I should have put her to sleep. I hope when your kitty comes home Saturday that things work out...

Ok after I posted here last night, I was laying in bed with Isis. I had just fed her about 30 minutes prior. She threw up alllllllll over my bed, down the side, onto the bed skirt and then onto the carpet. THEN to make matters worse, she hopped down off the bed and peed on my floor! I HAVE...

Can anyone help offer advice to me on keeping my kitty's tube unclogged? I try propping her legs up like everyone suggests, and I always flush the tub with water to prevent clogging, yet it still is getting clogged. I am wondering if maybe my formula is too thick and maybe I should add more...

I am becoming overly stressed. Feeding Isis through the tube is hard. It clogs very easily. She doesn't seem to want to sit still. Every time I feed her the food/water goes everywhere. On her, me, the carpet, etc... Each feeding is taking me about 30 minutes. I get about 5 to 10 cc's in and the...

When I volunteered at the animal shelter, we had the hard task of getting stray cats and dogs used to human contact. Some would hide in the corner cowardly and others were aggressive. From working with the animals, it seemed the best thing was giving them treats and playing with them. But then...

When cats are stressed, they can lose so much hair that you'd swear they're going bald! To help with the shedding, maybe try brushing kitty. That is if he'll let you get near him! When you wrap the towel around him are you insuring it's wrapped around his legs, too? If you just throw it around...

Good luck with the little man. When cats are sick it sure does put your life on hold, doesn't it? It's all you can think about! I hope you find a solution. Keep us updated

Both options probably would have stressed kitty out. It probably doesn't matter either way. And it's only for a day or so.

I am to start off with feeding Isis 10 cc's 4 times a day. Then tomorrow I increase to 20 cc's, then the next day 30 cc's and I keep increasing until I reach 60 cc's. They put the tube in my kitty's neck and wrapped her neck up with ace bandadge type stuff. She seems to be doing just fine! I am...

I'm sorry to hear about your cat! I'm sure he'll probably be ok. I mean hey... if he's got the energy to hiss and growl, how sick can he be???

Two of my cats have extremely long hair. One of them in particular (a huge 16 lb black fluff ball) has very long hair between his lil toes. It's so cute. If he runs he does seem to slide on the tile surfaces. hehehe. Be careful cutting their hair b/c you could easily cut the cat's skin. Believe...

If you're looking for a way to help out cats (or animals in general) try volunteering at a 100 % no kill facility. Let the pro's do the dirty work (trapping them) and you could just go to the shelter and play with them! Showing them love and affection. I used to volunteer one evening a week. I...

It probably doesn't actually HELP with the cold, but it'll probably help make kitty feel cozy for a little bit. Warm up a nice big fluffy towel in the dryer for like 15 or 20 minutes. Take it out and wrap kitty in it. My cat loves it (she is sick, too ) I hope your kitty gets better soon...

Ok, well I just got back from the vet a few minutes ago. They are keeping her to give her some fluids and they're doing the tube thing. He said he thinks my cat will be ok!!!!!!!
