    Cat with chronic crystals/UTI issues.. WWYD?

    I've posted here before about my cats issues, but not for quite some time. I thought I'd come back to try to get some opinions from others. This will be long, I apologize in advance. Some back story.. Sneak will be 6 in November. His UT issues started in '08, then again in '09. Both times they...

    I just can't win with either of my boys.. Urinary tract issues & foods

    This is probably more of a vent more than anything.. but any input would be great! I posted awhile back about one of my cats, Sneak, and his UT issues. After about a month of trying different meds. to clear him up, we FINALLY got him to settle down when we put him on Science Diet S/D (100%...

    Can being a cryptorchid cause UTI's?

    In an interesting turn of events, my cat, Sneak, who I posted about here a little while ago, may in fact NOT be neutered. A little back story, for anyone interested.. I got him from a friend as a feral 8wk. old kitten. She worked at a vet clinic at the time, and when I picked him up, I was told...

    Wet food suggestions for male with urinary "issues"?

    My cat, Sneak, has now had 3 instances where he's had some urinary issues. 2 of the 3 times, he has NOT had any crystals, but just red/white blood cells in his urine, which antibiotics have always cleared up. One time he did have some struvite crystals, and was put on Royal Canin S/O for a...

    Dragging back legs, lethargic, x-rays/bloodwork normal, vet stumped. Suggestions?

    My aunt's cat is having some weird health problems, and has her regular vet stumped. She is planning on taking her to get a second opinion somewhere, but in the meantime, I told her I'd post her symptoms on here to see if maybe any one had suggestions. Here is the direct email from my aunt...

    Nutro Recall, what to feed now? UTI kitty.

    Now that my cat, Sneaks, food has been recalled (he was eating the Nutro Max Cat Roasted Chicken), I'm wondering what to switch him to now? He's done well on this food since I switched him to it after he got a mild UTI. He's only had the one UTI in his life (will be 3 in Oct.), so I'm wondering...

    Throwing up after eating too fast, suggestions?

    My cat Toby acts like he has an eating disorder. He has done this throwing up thing for years now, but now that he's back on wet food, it's a once/twice a week occurance. He's currently eating Royal Canin Urinary S/O. He gets 1/4 cup dry in the morning, and 1/4 6oz. can at night, so not much...

    Pooping in my bathtub!

    I swear, if it's not one 'poop issue', it's another. I've finally succeeded in getting my Ragdoll, Brody's, stools normal (see my previous threads if you're confused), and now this. I guess I shouldn't say now this though, as they (we have 2 Ragdolls) have done this before on occasion. But now...

    TF Parasite - Test was Negative.. what the heck?!

    Well, I can't update my original post title (have no idea why). Since I know a few of you wanted me to update you when I got Ozzy's test results back, I figured I'd post this. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, see my previous posts Vet called last Tuesday and said the...

    Sample sent in for TF parasite test, anyone know how long for results?

    For some reason, I can't update my original topics title (located here: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=182604), so I decided to make a new one. On Saturday, I took Ozzy, who was worse in the loose stool department, to the vet to have a fecal done and sent in to test for TF. He...

    So tired of loose stool. Possible IBD, suggestions? Kind of long.

    My Ragdoll, Brody, who I've posted about here before, is now suspected to have inflammatory bowel disease. He has been on the Royal Canin Limited Ingredient Rabbit & Green Pea for about 6 months now. We switched him from Chicken Soup (had also tried Felidae & Natural Balance Duck) because we...

    Good Dry Limited Ingredient Diets?

    I posted awhile back asking if anyone had suggestions of a food that's similar to the Royal Canin Veterinary Diet, Rabbit & Green Pea. Didn't get much response, so I'm trying again. Here's a list of the ingredients: Ground peas, rabbit meal, rabbit, pea protein, canola oil, rabbit digest...

    Royal Canin Veterinary Diet - Green Peas & Rabbit, any alternatives?

    My Ragdoll was having constant loose stools, and after trying a few different things, my vet & I switched him to the Royal Canin Green Peas & Rabbit veterinary diet to see if the loose stools were related to what he was eating (He was eating Chicken Soup). Well, it worked. He's been on the new...

    1yr. old with intermittent loose stools, occassional sneezing. Suggestions?

    I have an almost 1yr. old Ragdoll kitten that seems to have loose stools every so often. I'd say this happens maybe once a week, sometimes more, sometimes less. He's UTD on all shots and has been wormed, and tested for worms, all negative. He has always eaten the Royal Canin Kitten since I got...

    Food for cat that throws up after eating (too fast) that had UT issues

    My oldest cat, Toby (he's 4), has always had issues with throwing up about 10-15min. after he eats. It's typically a twice a month thing, so not that often (although it happened twice in one week last week), but often enough to make me think that he's eating too fast. He doesn't get much, 1/4...

    Totally confused about the death of my kitten. Thoughts? Long.

    On the 26th, I had to put my baby Logan to sleep. He had just turned 7 months old , and was a gorgeous Ragdoll. This all happened SO suddenly, it's really shocking. On Christmas night around 10pm, he was perfectly fine when my boyfriend put him in 'his' room for the night (I kept him in a spare...

    Logan, one of my new Ragdolls (have 2 from the same breeder) has had a pretty consistent runny nose since I brought him home (end of Sept.). He's been to the vet twice, last visit was Oct. 16th. Vet gave him Chlorpheniramine tablets, 4mg. He took 1/2 pill twice a day for 3wks. It really didn't...

    Trying to find a new food for Sneak. Suggestions?

    I know that's a pretty vague title. But it basically sums it up. Sneak, my almost 1yr. old kitty is sick of his current dry food. He's eating Eagle Pack Holistic Select (chicken flavor) mixed evenly with Chicken Soup. He does get wet food, about once every other day, because he's really not...

    2 new Ragdoll kittens! Need some name help (pictures included)!

    On Saturday, my boyfriend & I went to Rags2Riches Ragdolls to pick up ONE kitten for my mom that I had reserved. Well, ever since I found their website, I had my eye on this little boy with a freckle on his nose. As soon as I saw him on Saturday, I knew he had to come home with me as well. I...
