Lots of healing prayers coming your way, Tigger!!! Mary shadoww

Hi hon, So sorry to hear about your kitty's troubles. I also went through a very similar experience with Whiskers my (mostly) Russian Blue. He had started to not eat and drink anything and got really bad. His eyes and ears and just skin in general were positively YELLOW! The vet told me that...

Well I'm being cautiously optimistic regarding Whiskers. He acts like he's feeling some better and came in the kitchen this evening wanting some Fancy Feast. He ate a little bit of the can, (you know how small those cans are). Dr. Stone gave him another vitamin/antibiotic shot and more fluids...

Whiskers ate a tiny bit of his food this morning before my husband went to work. I'm crossing my fingers that the antibiotics are kicking in and that he's getting better. Yesterday Dr. Stone told me that our county animal shelter had to euthanize over 300 cats and kittens this last month...

When he had that liver infection or whatever it was, we thought for sure we were going to lose him. The vet said if it was his cat, he'd have him put to sleep. We almost did, but kept taking him back and he'd give him more cortisone and antibiotics. He was so bad his liver count was off the...

Yes me too hon....good vibes going your way also.....I'm getting a sick feeling in my stomach and it scares me to death. Whiskers is such a unique cat, (I know everyone thinks that, ) but its true. Everyone says they broke the mold when they made him.....I'm taking him back in the morning...

Hi everyone, I no sooner get the 2 kitties straightened out then my Whiskers gets sick. I've noticed for a couple of days he hasn't acted quite like himself, but was still eating some of his Fancy Feast. He even ate a little of it last night, but I just wasn't comfortable with it and took him...

You all have been really super. I was so stressed out I didn't know which end was up and really needed the encouragement and best wishes. I told Sicycat the other day that my Whiskers looks like her Zoey but I just took a close look at your babies, Sue, and your Polly and my Whiskers could be...

Hi everyone, Just wanted to let everyone know that Scrappy is doing great! Since he was the most scardest (is that a word???)and wildest of my ferals, him being sick really helped to calm him down, from all the handling of him I had to do. Although I guess its true what I've heard, that ferals...

Some of you may know, Scrappy (runt of litter) almost died with distemper and is really well on his way to recovery. Yaaay Scrappy!! He's been isolated from his brother for a week so he could recover in peace, but now however since they are back together, Scooter is really giving him a hard...

Your li'l cutie is adorable. Thank God Scrappy is doing better. He's on his way to a full recovery.....(crossing fingers). I have to agree with you on the way people just dump their pets and never get them shots or fixed. I feel responsible for Gateway's death in a way(Scrappy's brother)...

Yep Whiskers is terrible with rubberbands. He knows when we catch him with one, we take it and as soon as he gets it then he runs from us so we can't get it from him. Its amazing how much he looks like your Zoey. He was another "throw away kitty". He was dropped off at our house when he was...

those are some good ideas hissy. I'll give the toy thing a shot. I don't have any marbles at the moment, not even many of my own! Thanks for the nice compliment, I really am trying my best. Even though these babies were ferals they have come a long way. I just wish Scrappy could warm up to...

yep you are 100% right about the rubber bands. It seems like Whiskers has built in radar when it comes to them. Scrappy still seems to improve. He hasn't had any diarrhea since last night when I gave him some plain yogurt with kaopectate in it. Dr. Stone just called to check on him, he'll...

Just had the scare of my life, other than with Scrappy. His brother Scooter just climbed on my desk, with a pink plastic string sticking out of his mouth and seemed stuck. I didn't try to pull it out, just panicked slightly and wrapped him in a towel and woke my husband. We got his mouth open...

She's absolutely adorable! Also glad to hear her leukemia test was negative. Only advice I have is just please be sure and get her distemper shots as soon as your vet says. I just had one die and one fully recover and Scrappy in recovery now. It was touch and go for 5 days. It's a deadly...

Have you checked out the local animal shelter? You can also run an ad in your newspaper. Some papers will run missing pet ads for free. Its worth a look-see anyway. Also sometimes, at least down here in our Fla. neighborhood, the local radio stations will run missing pet ads. Anyway, anything...

Thats great, thanks a bunch. I really was afraid to use the vaseline but needed a good tip. I have some cod liver oil, will that help? And if its ok to use, do I need to mix it in their food or just give it to them with a syringe? They're pretty picky eaters and if there is any additives...

Hi everyone, can someone tell me what's really good for hairballs? Sassy, my long haired kitty is 13, blind and has a bad hairball problem. I had read that you could put vaseline on their feet and when they lick it off it helps take care of the problem. Since it says "petroleum" I was just...

We just finished our vet visit. He says Scrappy is getting better but he's still a sick kitty. He is a very cautious vet and just won't come out and say that he's definately getting over this. But I know from how he's acting and he's having the same behavior that Scooter did when he started...
