Thank you.  I'm in so much pain right now, six days after I put her to sleep and I still can't pull myself together.

Good advice, Vball.  I will do that.

Oh thank you all so much for your support.  You cat-moms/dads are the most caring people! To answer you all at once, yes, it was the buprenorphine not senility!   Because today I gave her none and she's back to her old sweet self.  And I am being careful not to touch her tummy.   I do believe...

Hello, Yesterday I gave my pancreatitis kitty an oral injection of buprenorphine, and she did not sleep a wink from 8am to 10pm when I went to bed.  As you know, this is abnormal for an ailing & elderly kitty.  Today I gave her no injection and she is sleeping some.   She looked pretty unhappy...

Thanks so much Bval.   This is so hard, I needed to vent.   I take your point that I need to take care of me too.   Thanks for listening and responding.  This all makes me realize I need to talk to the vet some more about all these concerns.  I don't want to inflict my pain onto all of you....I...

I am feeling very stressed from my 15 y.o. kitty's chronic illnesses.   I request your support. My kitty Blue developed IBS a year or so ago.  It has by now progressed to pancreatitis.  The last few days I have been wondering if now we are moving into senility territory, or drug reactions. Her...

Why would a 14 y.o. cat cry when she is using the litter box?   Her litter box is in the closet so I can't observe her when she's in there to see what's going on. My vet thought she might be constipated and told me to give her Miralax, which I did but she still cries.  She had a recent urine...

Thanks! LDG....I didn't think of opening the capsule and putting it on her food [DUH].  I'll try that.   Poor little gal already has to put up with the pred pill every day, but she is totally good about taking it.  By the way, every day after I give her the pill, I give her a big hug and stick...

Guess that few minutes turned into 12 hrs!   I was tired from the rough week which included 24 hrs in which she would not eat her food but kept meowing. Anyhow, I guessed right and found another food she would eat:  Wellness Turkey and Salmon.  I guess she didn't want the chicken in the Evo...

You guys are incredible!!!!!!! I am getting far more help here than I ever dreamed when I initially stopped by with a question! I'd have to say you guys are passionate about this...that's great! Here's a round of applause for you all!!! I am going to be back with comments in a few...

Hi.  Sorry it took me so long to reply.  I was pretty tired last night and some other things going on, but anyway.... Let me tell you about today.   Well a few days ago she was eating the 95% Evo turkey-chicken well.  This morning she wouldn't eat it.  I had to run to work, so I left it there...

Hi, My 14 yr old kitty, Blue, has eaten dry food (Science Diet) for the last 4 years.  Before that, I don't know what she ate because I adopted her from the Pound when she was 10.  I think she has probably eaten dry all her life.   I now know that is not the best idea, but I unfortunately...
