    WARNING: Graphic Post - Euthanization with anesthetic

    I just had my 21-year-old cat euthanized and it was horrible. Not the having to put her down part -- she was blind, in pain and generally ready to go -- but the act. I had the vet come to the house thinking it would be less stressful for her. He said he'd give her an anesthetic first...

    Three Sick Kitties

    I'm just asking what experiences others have had with multiple cats getting ill at the same time and what turned out to be the cause, and/or with cats showing an interest in food but not eating (after trying multiple brands and flavours). Nobody has had this this happen?

    Sudden Blindness in Geriatric Cat

    I went to put Putty's food down last night, and realized she couldn't find it. She's always had a terrible sense of smell, I'll put a piece of food on the ground and she frantically looks for it even though it's inches from her nose). But I checked her out, and she's blind as a bat! Her...
