Hi all,
It's been awhile, but I've been dealing with some mouth issues in my older cat, Katie. She was drooling and we thought it was a tooth issue but she has a mass under tongue. Vet thinks it is squamous cell carcinoma. We had already decided not to do chemo or radiation due to her other...
Hi all,
It's been awhile but I have a question to run by you guys. Here is the back story. Well I took Kattie in to her vet back in June as she had lost some weight and looked kinda scruffy. We did some bloods and urine and she had a slight elevation in her BUN and Creatinine. Everything else...
Hi all,
It seems my 7 yo male cat, Oscar, gets a sterile cystitis once a year. He has never been blocked though has had struvite crystals in his urine. This time it started over the weekend. I noticed that the pee clumps were smaller and he was visiting the litter box more frequently friday...
Hi all,
This is going to be long so bear with me. Anyways, my cat Katie has been somewhat of an unusual cat but we've managed her health issues rather well. She basically has chronic constipation due to an old pelvic fracture that narrowed the pelvic canal so stool can easily build up. She is on...
Well, Katie went in for her recheck UA today. She had a uti a few weeks ago, but has since been normal. They did a cystocentesis and in house UA to start. The vet called back and said for the most part everything was normal. There were no WBC but she did see RBC's. Not many but they were there...
Well I posted about 3 weeks ago that my cat Katie had a uti. She is doing great now and goes in on Friday for her recheck UA. Well now tonight I got home after going out to dinner and while I was preparing the puppy and cats dinner I noticed Oscar going in the litter box a little too frequently...
Hi all,
I'm back again with a health issue. Anyways, my cat Kattie has been diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. We got a puppy 3 and a half weeks ago and I am wondering if stress has anything to do with it. We have been giving everyone equal attention and preventing the puppy from...
Hi all,
I've been a bit obsessive about my cats health lately. My older dog has recently been put down due to terminal cancer. I took the cats in for well checks then Oscar had basically a high normal on his ALT. Reference range is 5-65 and his was 67. Hardly something to really worry about...
Hi all,
Well Katties paw is back to normal and that is good, but I brought Oscar in for just a well check and over all he is healthy but needs to lose 2 or 3 pounds. He's a chub at 18 pounds even though he is a big cat already. Anyways, we did a baseline bloodpanel to make sure he wasn't...
Hi all,
Its been awhile but I've had a busy few months lately. Anyways, I've been dealing with my older female kitty limping off and on on her left front foot. She is 10 years old or will be sometime this year. I got her when she was 3 and she was previously declawed before I got her. I would...
Hi guys,
I have a quick question. This is probably nothing but wanted to get opinions. My 4 yo male kitty, Oscar has decided to regurgitate his food. He did it today and one time earlier this week. Occasionally he'll regurgitate a meal and then nothing for a long time, so twice in a week made me...
Well it's been awhile since being on here, but things have been going pretty well til Sunday. Katie has been completely normal aside from a little itchy and extra grooming due to summer allergies. Anyways, Saturday she was her normal happy self. Sunday morning she tried to throw up a hairball. A...
This is really strange, but I was wondering if this has happened to any of you guys. My male cat Oscar, who has never had an issue in his life seems to not be able to tolerate this brand or this particular flavor. It is the Wururva Cats in the kitchen pouches. The Chicken and duck formula. I...
Well Kattie had her recheck today. She is doing great! Even gained 2 ounces lol. The doctor checked her over, he felt her lump which he thinks is probably inflammation from the other doctors injection. We are watching it closely but since it has gotten smaller we are comfortable watching it. Her...
Hi there!
i am wanting to put Kattie and maybe Oscar on a fish oil supplement for health. Oscar is healthy and fine but I know it wont hurt them. Kattie has chronic allergies and she is the one that could use it. My dog is on a liquid supplement of salmon oil, but I did find that it has...
Hi all,
Well Kattie is doing great from her ordeal a few weeks ago with the bad vet and second opinion. She is eating well and acting great in all respects. Well at the other vet that we will no longer go to, They gave a covenia injection pretty much against my wishes. They said they were going...
Yay!
Just got back from the vets for Kattie's workup! Bloods and urine are absolutely normal. No evidence of liver or kidney issues. Even her calcium was normal which was slightly elevated in July. Maybe a fluke or blood draw error. It was 9.5 when in July it was 12.1. her xrays look excellent...
My poor defectiive Kattie! I took her into the vet today because she is being a little finickier with her food. She is still eating, but not as much. She is a megacolon kittie so I thought she was backing up, or got a hair accumulation because of her shedding and over grooming. Anyways I take...
I had bought this food as an alternative for my parents to feed when I went on vacation. My cats are currently on grain free canned, a little kibble and raw every few meals. They are still deciding whether they like it or not. Some days it is gone, the next I have to throw it out. Anyways, I am...
Well I am still working on the raw conversion, but am leaving on vacation in a week. My parents are taking care of the cats and dog and don't want to feed raw. They are also gone for 12 or so hours a day on some of the days, so a little long to go between meals. Anyways, as some of my posts have...
