    My Tom

    I'm a bit depressed because my Tom has been trying to avoid me. (He's been sick with kidney issues, urine blockage...) Could it be because he thinks I am going to give him meds again? I gave him his last pill on Tuesday. I try to pet him and he walks away. He only likes to play with my mom! He...

    Update on Tom 3-28

    I think that Tom is doing well. He had the urinary blockage and the beginning of kidney disease. He is running around outside with Mixy, getting on top of the roof and meowing for food. I had to take him for a check up but right now, I can't afford it. I still owe $1,200 for his recent treatment...

    Friskies for Tom?

    When I took him, he was blocked. Blood tests showed he's starting kidney failure. From 1 to 10, vet said he was about 3. Right now, he is peeing very well.

    Friskies for Tom?

    Thank you for your advice. I just want him to eat and not be weak. Before giving him the Friskies, I did call the vet and they told me to give him the KD mixed with chicken broth to see if he'd eat it. He didn't. Angie

    Friskies for Tom?

    Thanks. I decided to give him that food because I found it on a page which had alternative foods for the prescribed med. Again, this is a diet food for cats with urinary problems. Thanks.

    Friskies for Tom?

    Since Tom wasn't eating the prescribed KD food, I bought him Friskies Special Diet for cats with urinary tract infection. Is that safe? At least he is eating that. I do mix in some of the dry KD food but he eats around it. By the way, Mr. Tom gave me a scare today. I took him outside for a bit...

    Healthy cat with chronic bloated belly

    Back in 2007, I had my Sassy, Tom's sister. One night, I noticed that she was also bloated. I took her to the vet and she found nothing wrong. She did blood work looking for any kind if disease. Also, she did an xray and didn't find anything. She sent her home without any meds. A Few days...

    Update on Tom...Please send vibes

    I will call and ask. He finished one of his meds (zeniquin) today. I sill have that gel and the Azodyl tablets. Mixy is still a bit afraid when she smells him. Good thing is that they were sitting close to each other for a while. Thanks. Angie

    Update on Tom...Please send vibes

    I want to update Tom's contiditon. Please tell me if you feel that he is improving. (He has early state kidney problems) He has been peeing in large "balls" on the litter box. He has gotten an appetite and is eating wet food, not the prescribed medication. He wouldn't eat that. I bought him...

    Am I being cruel?

    Tom seems to be ok. He wants to eat but not the presciribed meal. I saw him running today. I did give him some canned chicken and he ate a bit. Unfortunately, he went outside and ate some of the dry food. Can I feed him ocean fish canned food? Thanks.

    Am I being cruel?

    That's what I want for him. To be happy. He's been outside all day. The thing I am worried about is that he won't eat his prescribed food. He just doesn't like it. I tested him with his old food and he quickly ate that. I just don't know what to do. He is in the primary stage of kidney...

    Am I being cruel?

    Thanks Taryn. I think that I will let him be like he was before. I just let him go outside and he looks very happy. He has the beginning of KD. They were able to take his blood levels to normal so I don't really know how long he can survive. Like I've said, I love my cats so much. I just...

    Am I being cruel?

    So what can I do? Do I take my chances and let him be free like always and wait for the unevitable? I just want him to be as happy as he was, when he was free to be outside. I feel so guilty about him being locked up in one place. He meows like he's desparate to get outside. I would not hold...

    Am I being cruel?

    Some of you may know of my Tom's recent problems with his kindeys. Unfortunately, I've been suffering from depression and anxiety since 2001, when I lost my first cat Tabby after 16 years. Right now, I am overwhelmed with Tom's illness I actually get sick to my stomach worrying about him day...
