Hi! I need some help with getting one of our cats to adopt the cat genie. We thought that she was using the box on a regular basis but we found her hiding spot for going #2 in the dining room and we just found out that she was going #1 in one of the boxes (we just moved into our house four...
We moved over the weekend from an apartment into a house with our two cats, Sassy La Rue and Lola Rocket. We didn't expect instant acceptance from the cats and Sassy took to the new house like a champ but Lola was a lot more hesitant. We put both cats in 'safe rooms' while moving and the movers...
We have two cats: Sassy La Rue, a CRF'er and Lola Rocket - healthy, way too energetic one year-old.
Since the vet doesn't recommend cleaning her teeth, we've never had a kitty cat dental cleaning (and her mom has a true fear of the dentist so she has no problem helping her feline avoid it) but...
Lola is almost a year old and we've had her in as a part of our family since December. The only problem we had with her was she and our other cat, Sassy La Rue, getting to know each other.
But starting last Thursday, we've been coming home to rolls of toilet paper being shredded all over the...
We got Lola from the Vet's office and she and Sassy seem to get along just fine. It only took a week before they became completely friendly. I was in shock by this quick bonding.
Lola is 8 months old and Sassy is three years old.
Lola Rocket!!
Lola and Sassy
And Lola with Daddy (who...
We just got a new cat, Lola Rocket, and she and Sassy La Rue are getting along great.
But tonight, Sassy won't close her left eye. It doesn't appear to be bothering her but she looks like she's persistently winking at us. I'm trying to figure out what could have caused this issue and if/when to...
Sassy La Rue is 2 1/2 calico/torty mixed up cat. We know she's sick and is a special needs cat but we'd also like to expand our family. She needs a couple more siblings.
Everytime we've tried to introduce her to some kittens she goes all diva on us and hisses at them. What's the proper way...
First, I apologize that it's been a while since I've been on the boards. I started a new job that is taking up much of my time and you'll find out where the rest of my time has been spent in the second part.
Second, we've been doing our best to find treatments for Sassy's very aggressive CRF...
You guys have made me some beautiful signatures but when I post them to a hosting site, such as flckr, it doubles the file size. Is there something that I'm doing wrong in the saving of the file?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I figured out a solution- I think!
Sassy La Rue was given can food from the vet for her kidney issues. He didn't tell me how much to feed her or how long it can stay out. She weighs 12lbs and is use to free feeding dry food but how long can canned food be out before it needs to be tossed?
As an update, her creatin is up from...
A little background...I got laid off at the beginning of August. It was a bit of shocker and a blow to the ego but I took it in stride. A couple weeks later the headhunters started to call. One job in particular got my interest, so I decided to pursue it.
I thought it was going to be for an...

While giving Sassy her SubQ tonight, she got upset and moved, dislodging the needle and the needle tip scratched my thumb causing a small bit of bleeding.
I washed up the small wound with first aid antibacterial cleaner, put neosporin on the...
Typically when I take Sassy in for her check up (she had a major kidney infection/failure) I'm put in exam room 2. The other day I was put in another room and on the wall was a picture of George and Barbara Bush along with a note thanking the doctor for his years of service taking care of their...
Sassy got home last Saturday from being in the hospital all week with an IV and antibiotics. I took her in yesterday for a check up and they called today with her blood work. Her BUN was up to 63 and Creatine rose to 3.5. Now, we're going to be doing SubQ at home three times a week to see if...
Now that Sassy is home, we have to give her three different meds a day in pill form. What's the best way you have found to get your cats to take pills without having to force it into their throats?
Thanks!
Edit: Ooops I didn't see a similiar post down a bit!
I had to take my cat, Sassy - a two year-old domestic short hair, into the emergency vet this morning because she continued to throw up through out the night. The vet diagnosed her with kidney disease/failure and Sassy is going to stay at the animal hospital overnight.
Has anyone had any...
Miss Sassy La Rue, Supermodel Diva Kitty Cat!
She is two years-old and is an only child that requires a lot of love and ear scratching. Most days you can find her where ever her mom is, near the computer, by the couch or under the bed. And, when she's not busy playing shadow, she loves to...
My cat, Miss Sassy La Rue, is two and just killed her first lizard. (She's an indoor cat and we live in Texas, the lizards like play inside sometimes.) Since her kill she's thrown up food and today started to throw up a foamy/white vomit. She's been eating, drinking, peeing and poohing and...
