    Kitten needs thoughts and prayers

    I have not been on this site since 2012 when I had my cat Merlin. He ended up getting an obstruction in his bladder and at the time I didn't have the money to help him. But thanks to a few people on this site, I was able to get him the vetinary care he needed and he pulled through it. So if you...

    Stubborn kitten won't use litter box!

    I was thinking about getting another litter box as my next approach. I will look into it. And I scoop the litter once a day and change it once a week. I am picky about it just as much as Merlin is lol. Thanks for the advice. I will update whenever I get the other litter box.

    Stubborn kitten won't use litter box!

    I have had this kitten for awhile. I got him a few days before I got my adult cat (Merlin). He was using the litter box just fine until he showed up. Now, Riku, goes everywhere but in the litter box. I don't want to give him away for a matter than can be solved. I am determined to get him to go...

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    Thanks for the advice. This is scary stuff. I really hope it just works for him and nothing goes wrong again. I've noticed he goes to the litter box to pee more frequently now. I have water for him at all times. I have also noticed that he seems to be more trusting of us. He hasn't gotten up...

    They started him on the wet diet. The CD wet diet. I want to get the cans of that brand but they are 1.50 a can. I am going to talk to the vet about when I can change his diet and if I ever can. I am in no hurry to change it though. i am just worried he will fall ill again.

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    Yes, I am glad we are getting out this rut finally. I am going to start buying the CD wet diet eventually it's just that the cans are more expensive. I am hoping he will do well on the cd diet but time will tell I guess. I never want to see him like that again. He is still on his med for another...

    Merlin has been home since Friday. I am able to come to the library to get on the internet. he is on CD diet. It's dry but it is meant for his bladder. He is doing really well on it. Merlin is still on medication for another 4 days but he takes the pill with no struggle. He is back to his old...

    I set up a wish on a website if you want to chip in and help. I am not sure how it works but I set the goal for 600. I really have no clue what the vet costs are going to be in total but right now it is at 382

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    They told me that we could stay as long as we wanted. He perked up when was saw him. His levels are still at 90 but he ate a little bit today. I could tell he didn't want me to leave. He was sitting up and his ears were perked up. His percentage rate for making it through went up. His creatinine...

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    Oh I sat and held him even with pee all over him when he was still home. I was petting him yesterday before his bladder was drained and he kept opening his eyes and looking at me. I forgot to add that in the update. The vet said that his central nervous system was being attacked because Merlin...

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    We are going to go see him after lunch. They said that I really can't or shouldn't pet him much because he is covered in his urine but I'm going to anyway. I haven't asked about much. I'm not sure they've figured out what is caused this to happen they are just trying to get him to stabilize. I'm...

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    Got an update on Merlin. They said last night his BUN was 180. They did another one and it is now down to 90. They are shooting for 40. He IS responding but he is still pretty ill. Right now they are just giving him fluids and they are shooting for that 40. That is a pretty big jump in one night...

    Can someone help me with these symptoms?

    I intend on bringing Merlin home one way or the other. I told my husband that if it comes down to it, which it's looking in that direction, we are selling our tv. It is a flat screen 3d tv. We have other ones we can sell we just have to find someone that will buy it. Thanks for the support you...
