I can no longer afford to take Barney to specialists. The cheapest I found in my area a few months ago wanted $65.00 to just walk through the door then $35.00 an hour over and above the $65.00.

I've watched "my cat from hell" and like it a lot .. the show was why I ended up putting up kitty shelves which are probably going to end up as odd bookshelves since both kittys won't venture past the one in the corner shelf even though I've baited them with kitty junk food and catnip. I would...

I forgot to add that Barney is happy and content for the most part but that changes in a heartbeat if something changes that he can't cope with. He is also the most photogenic cat I've ever seen .. you can't take a bad picture of Barney.

At the moment they are eating the Blue for Indoor Cats. Barney was put on elavil and the dosage played with for 3 months with...

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Barney has always been like this - even as a kitten. I've been to many vets and spent tons of money on blood tests & such. I have done everything I can think of to help Barney. They have open boxes and covered boxes for sleeping. I've even made what I call...

I'm really desperate .. I have 2 cats - American Short Hair, a brother and sister, Barney & Feif .. I've had them since they were kittens going on 9 years now. They are both strictly indoor cats. The female Feif has always been pretty much easy going but reacts to her brother, Barney who has...
