We did the x-rays today (she's been coughing every now and then and vomiting, but otherwise seems fine - http://thecatsite.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=connie and http://thecatsite.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=connie). The vet is also doing a heartworm test and running another blood test to see...

She has been vomiting a lot, but I'm starting to wonder if it's respiratory and not digestive...? I am setting up a vet appointment, regardless, but wondering what, if anything, I need to ask about. My vet is a cat-only vet, but I need to get Connie's vomiting under control, and I wonder if I...

Connie is an adopted Siamese girl who will be nine in November. I had the vet do bloodwork in September, and everything was perfectly normal except for the globulin levels being on the high side of normal. She has been vomiting her kibble since I brought her home (Labor Day), but we initially...

Lucy is apparently too good for anything but raw food and...bread. Since switching Lucy to raw (we just tried to the Nature's Variety tonight, and it was as big a hit as the Aunt Jeni's), she is turning her nose up at anything "cat". Cat treats, wet food, dry food, etc. It's pretty silly for...

She's been eating Aunt Jeni's for about two weeks, and she wolfs it down like a ravenous lunatic at every feeding. She was never a picky eater, but she was never this enthusiastic about food, either. Dave bought groceries tonight, but after lugging them up four flights of stairs, sat down to...

http://www.auntjeni.com/homemade.htm Anyone use this? Any comments. I know it has garlic in it. I bought the rabbit and chicken varieties, since I've been wanting to get the kitties on a raw (but not homemade) diet. The store also has Nature's Variety, so I will probably end up trying...

The unnamed (I know! She needs a name!) Siamese girl is a dry food addict. She switched very easily to Nature's Variety Instict (from the Avoderm the shelter fed, and the Purina ONE her previous owners fed), but she keeps vomiting. She doesn't appear to be sick, just puking every now and then...

Lucy is eating like a pig and had normal poop! Her regular vet called me at work today completely flabbergasted at my luck with kitty health. She had already planned to call me to check on the Siamese girl's URI and arrived at work this morning to find the e-vet's faxed report about Lucy's...

For those of you who have been keeping your fingers crossed and sending vibes, doing voodoo, or whatever you do ...it worked! They didn't offer her food at 4am - the night doctor wanted to wait a little longer and test her for some blood parasite I forgot the name of, but her attending vet...

I have been posting about my cat, Lucy, and her ordeal this weekend. Long story short, she began vomiting (pink), had diarrhea (became bloody after I got her to the e-vet), no appetite, went to the e-vet, x-rays/ultrasound didn't show any specific obstruction, but her intestines were bunching...

The surgery should be starting soon. She was very happy to see us (she even cried a few times when we first got there) and purred up a storm, but was still very pathetic. She does not feel good. The vomiting and diarrhea continued, and the gas has started building up again (based on the...

I just had to leave Lucy at the e-vet with a suspected intestinal obstruction. She threw up several times in the wee hours of yesterday morning. She threw up a few more times while I was at work (I skipped her breakfast to let her tummy take a break). By the time I got home, she had no...

Took the new girl to the vet this morning. She came home (late Monday night) from the shelter very congested and already on Clavamox for URI. I got her in ASAP for the URI. It seems better than it was in the shelter (wet sneezes, but not slinging snot everywhere anymore - still...

In my other intro, I mentioned that I had been looking for a Siamese when I found my girl, Lucy. As fate would have it, the shelter had gotten a Siamese after I applied for Lucy (the woman who did my home visit mentioned her to me), and she was in the cage above Lucy when we went to pick her...

I adopted Lucy, a black DSH, from a shelter last week. She isn't my first cat, but she is my first black cat. I always wanted a black cat as a kid, but my mom was a Siamese fan who wouldn't budge (until I grew up and started fostering kittens; her three current cats are all rescued foster...
