    Cat depression?

    Hi all, Well, unfortunately, Max didn't pull through and he just couldn't fight anymore. I had him euthanized this morning, after the hospital called to tell me he wasn't stabalizing, and declining rapidly. Between the liver problems, an infection and a very large and painful absess, it was...

    Vets for Pets

    Thanks so much all... he's unfortunately still not out of the woods yet. The absess is fairly severe, he's lost about 5 pounds, but his blood is coagulating, and his fever's down. I'm going to see him in about an hour and I just can't wait to see my baby! These vets almost go into TOO much...

    very new, but feel very old!

    Thanks for the kind welcome! I unfortunately don't have any, I've always been bad about taking pictures of anyone or anything, even my angels! My hope is that people from everywhere write in about vets, and if it goes 'international', or there are lots of posts from all over, to create...

    Vets for Pets

    Cat depression?

    Hi all, Well, actually it looks like I should have posted this on the health site after all, as I decided to take him to a fancy-shmancy vet in Manhattan (I currently live in Astoria, Queens). While he seemed not *too* bad at the outset (they did find he had 105 degree temperature-- ACK!-- and...

    Cat depression?

    Thanks so much for the speedy reply! I'm confident that this is a behavioral issue and not a physical one, as he's just been to the vet and had all this done to him. When he was at the vet for the infection, he was there for three days, being poked and prodded (i.e., IV'd, blood tests, he also...

    Cat depression?

    Hi all, I've got two fabulous 6 year old cats, one is very well adjusted, loves to play, very happy, loves my company, just super. Her brother, however, has always been a little emotional. He has always loved to eat, and has in the past year or so really come out of his shell. I got them...
