Thank you for your post!  I've also read that vomiting wasn't a primary sign of FCov, but I was interested in the experiences of others.  I'm cautiously optimistic about Mia.  She's still very energetic and playful (or as playful as she gets-she really doesn't play with anything except for my...

I posted a couple of days ago about losing a kitten to FIP.  That was heartbreaking, but I was somewhat consoled by my other sweet cat.  Mia is 5 years old and has always been very healthy. I first noticed her throwing up a few days before Blaze died.  Honestly, I assumed it was a fur ball or...

Thank you for your replies!  I'm still in a bit of shock.  He seemed so healthy, until he wasn't.  We went from thinking he had a simple eye injury (his left eye developed a "bruise" like spot) to possibly stomatitis to discovering he had FIP to euthanizing him in less than 2 weeks.  The last...

We just lost our baby boy to FIP.  He had only been with us for 8 months and was barely a year old when he died.  It was heartbreaking to watch him go from being a playful kitten to such a sick cat.  We made the decision to have him euthanized last week. Now, we are full of so many questions. ...

I wish I knew of some good hotels, but good luck with the move!  What part of GA are you moving to?  I moved from CT (Milford area) to TN several years ago.  VA used to be our regular pit stop when making the trek back and forth.

Mia is still new to us so we haven't tried too many new foods.  But my late kitty Taco LOVED green olives.  They were like catnip to her.  She'd eat one and start rolling around on her back!

I don't exactly sit out to get sun, but I'm outside a lot.  I spend as much time as I can working in the garden, playing outside with my kids or swimming in the local pool.  Skin cancer also runs in my family so when I am outside, I wear SPF 100 cream with SPF 110 spray over it.  The amazing...

Mia jumped up to the middle level and curled up for a bit, then jumped back down.  Of course, we were all standing there watching her...no pressure!  She scratched at the carpet, the box and the rope for a bit, then curled up on her favorite bed and went to sleep.  I took the feather toy down...

Thanks!  So far, Mia shows no interest in any toys.  I've tried the feather wands, little mouse toys on a string, laser pointer, crinkle balls, cat nip toys and even simple pom poms.  Nada.  I ordered a treat maze for her and I'm hoping that will help keep her stimulated during the night.  And I...

Thanks!  I bought this one today.  Mia shows no interest in it yet, but it's on the porch and she spends most of her time outside during the day.  Hopefully, she'll be happy when she comes inside tonight!

Wow!  Thanks!!!!  I absolutely see a tree in our future soon!!!! One more question...is there a better brand or style?  I'm looking at something that's solid wood or at least pressed wood of some sort.  Anything cardboard would be destroyed on the porch.  It will be away from the rain, but it...

What are your thoughts on cat trees?  I never had one with my previous cats, but I'm thinking of getting one for Mia.  She's outside during the day, but locked on the screen porch at night.  She already has quite a few things to play with out there, but nothing she can climb on.  So, I'm...

I'm so sorry for your loss.  I completely understand how devastating it is to get that news.  My first pregnancy ended when I was just starting the second trimester.  Please take care of yourself and feel better soon!  (((HUGS)))

@moochnnoodles-are your cucumbers on the ground or raised?  I had a rough time with mine on the ground when it's too wet.  This year, I made a simple trellis out of a few wood stakes and some plastic fencing material.  They're doing MUCH better!  And if it is powdery mildew, you can make a spray...

Garlic is very easy to grow and fairly easy to store.  When it's time to harvest, I dig it out rather than pull it...that leaves the stems intact.  I brush off as much of the dirt as I can, but do NOT wash.  Then, I braid the stems (my braids aren't neat and pretty like the ones online, but...

I think I saw a post about gardening before, but I thought I'd ask again.  Is anyone else into gardening?  Where are you and what are you growing? I'm in Tennessee and have only been gardening for a few years.  I live on a mountain and have a fairly good size yard, but not a ton of direct sun...

I've never had a pregnant animal either, but I wanted to say good luck and congrats to Kali!

I wasn't sure where this post fit, so I thought I would start it here. What are your kitty's favorite toys? Mia is primarily an outdoor kitty, but she stays on our screen porch at night. So far, she seems pretty happy out there and I have some things to help make her comfortable...food and water...
