Clementine would be a security guard.

Thanks for all of the helpful replies. In case anyone is interested, I called my vet and it turns out that I had misunderstood what he had said. He explained that the wet food is best for her main diet (the Friskies). He said that it was 75% water which should be adequate for her but if I have...

Thanks for all of the responses. I did find a can of 100% natural solid pack pumpkin (not a pie filling) in the pantry which sounds like what you are describing. It is pretty old though so I don't want to give it to her. I'll just get a new can next time at the store and try a little of that.

Thanks for the response. Our vet says she needs to be eating both dry and canned foods (and he's an excellent vet, one of the best in our state) and also that she needs to start drinking water without just getting it from her food.

I have a 5 yr old female whom I’ve had since she was a kitten. She has always eaten Friskies Pate canned food which was recommended to me at the time I got her. She needs to be changed to a different food however. She has lately been having problems with constipation and our vet wants her on a...

Thanks for the response. This is not an oral medicine so pill administering techniques don't apply. I am trying to apply "Frontline Plus" which has to be applied directly onto the skin on the back of her neck (so that she can't lick it off). It can't be applied to the fur or it won't spread...

I just wanted to post a follow-up to this thread. It has now been 7 days since the spaying and she has been doing just great. You would never know anything had ever happened to her and she seems good to go. She is behaving like her normal self with the exception that she still is not flying...

Last year, I got my cat a scratching post that had sisal rope around the post itself but with a flat carpeted base and a carpeted "cap" over the top 3 inches of the post. The rest is sisal rope. She loves the sisal rope and is using it as I write this but after slightly over a year's use, it is...

I thought I would share a story I saw on "Animal Planet" not too long ago. The San Francisco Humane Society happened upon a stray cat roaming the streets of San Francisco, rescued her and took her back to their shelter. They checked her for microchips and found one. They tracked down the owner...

Thanks for the helpful responses.She has definitely perked up today. She is eating more, even playing a little and generally acting more like her old self. Her incision still looks fine so I guess we are on the way. And the best part?  No more sleepless nights while she is in heat. Yay!

[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:AllowPNG/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings></xml><![endif] My 22 month kitty was just spayed 2 days ago and I am worried about several things. First of all, she saw our regular vet (who is an outstanding vet and considered to be one of the best in...

Thanks for the replies. They have been most helpful. I have gone ahead and scheduled her surgery with the Humane Society vet. They have assured me that she will be getting a shot of morphine for pain just before coming out of the anesthesia and I also get pain medicine to give her at home...

I have a 21 month old kitty who I will be getting spayed in a few weeks. I have two options for getting her spayed. One is via a special program by our local humane society where they subsidize the spaying and the total cost to me of getting it done would be $40.00. The second option is to take...
