    7 year old cat with grade 4 heart murmur

    So I took both my girls into the vet the other day and found out my 7 year old hs a grade 4 heart murmur (on a 1-6 scale). Now, we don't know what is causing the murmur and an echocardiogram is 600 dollars and 3 hours away. Do I have any other options to help my baby girl?

I'm hoping to take her into the vet ASAP, however I work all week AND go to school :/. I was thinking it is possibly kitty acne, but at...

    will she forgive me?

    So earlier this morning, I had to crate my baby Felix to take her to the vet for a teeth cleaning. Needless to say, there was a lot of wrestling around to get her in there and she was very upset with me. Just last night we were snuggling and I really don't want her to be mad at me when she gets...

    Kitten not learning?!

    So my kitten, Maya and her much older sister, Felix had seemingly made a lot of progress. Felix no longer bats at Maya, but still hisses often. Unfortunately, it seems as though Maya has stopped listening to Felix's warnings. Before, Felix would hiss and Maya would know to be more gentle or stay...
