My Allie Cat, at the age of 16 crossed the Rainbow Bridge tonight at the cancer specialist group where I'd been taking her since last May. I've been posting about her on this board since I got her when she was a kitten. She was a beautiful Maine Coon mix. She was my sweet, fiesty, sometimes...

Hello - My little Allie Cat (pictured in my profile on the floor) is now 16 years old. I posted last year that she was diagnosed with mast cell cancer and lymphoma. And this month, we can now add pancreatitis to the list. She's been at the hospital for a flare-up the last couple of days, and...

Hello - My cat has been diagnosed with lymphoma. Last Saturday, she had her spleen removed, and I'm waiting for the results of her biopsies. In anticipation of her potentially needing chemo, I wanted to start looking into alternative therapies, and wondered if anyone might have holistic vets...

Hello - My Allie Cat - the Maine Coon mix lying on the floor in my thumbnail - had her spleen removed and biopsies done this past Saturday. It's been a whirlwind of diagnostic steps to find the cause of her illness: she started vomiting several times a day a couple of weeks ago, and since then...

I've been transitioning my 1-year-old to wet food for reasons I posted about here. She ate some yesterday, but not much and she was becoming lethargic. I remembered that I had some Forti-Flora in the cabinet and sprinkled a little bit over her breakfast. She couldn't get enough of it! She...

My 1 year old calico, Zora, developed a very stubborn UTI. It was stress-related, due to my older cat, Allie, freaking out when she goes to the vet for her annual check-up and stressing out Zora; she hasn't been prone to them otherwise). Zora seemed to be recovering with Clavamox, but then she...

My older kitty has had gastric issues ever since I brought in a new kitten. She's been eating Lotus, which hadn't given her problems until I took her in for her annual vet visit, and she freaked out and developed diarrhea. I got that cleared up with probiotics, but now when she purrs for too...

Hello - I've a really old tv that works perfectly fine, but I'd like to save space, and I'm thinking of getting a flatscreen. But I've been putting Video Catnip on the DVD player for my kitten, and I'm afraid what she would do to a flatscreen when she gets worked up  and jumps up and paws at...

Hello - It's been 11 years since I last posted, when I was having problems with my very first cat adjusting to a new kitten. Since then, that elder cat has passed away, and the kitten is now a senior cat. I'm posting again because I have a similar issue with the now-senior cat and a new kitten...

Hello, me again. I'm so glad I found this forum - it's so helpful! My latest question is that my cats prefer each other's food to their own. Problem is one is a senior cat and the other is a kitten. Same brand (Nutro Natural Choice), but different types of food. The older cat's a little...

Hello - I have a 7 year-old cat and I just took in a stray kitten. I'm looking into health insurance. When I did a search, I found many policies and I couldn't get a sense for which ones would be best for me. Any advice for which companies to avoid? Alternately, my vet is now offering...

Hello - I'm Emile, I live in Los Angeles. I have a cat, almost 8 years old named Tabby Sebastian (picture attached). She's the first cat I ever had - she walked into my friend's house. Before her, I hated cats, but I've loved her ever since. So much so that I'm constantly having stray cats...
