I got my cat Susie Q (you see her in my avatar) from a shelter,  the board of health have since closed down due to health issues in the cats, about 2 years ago. The cats there were known to have respiratory illnesses, among other illnesses, but I felt sorry for my little sniffling cat. She has...

Both times by the way, my cats got the bugs I believe from the shelter - they were entirely indoor, and the two different groups of cats showed no symptoms beforehand - just wanted to add that. 

Sorry to hear they were feeling under the weather. I do believe (having volunteered in many animal shelters) that you can bring things home from them. There are some common bugs going around a few of them, one starts with a c, it's a common shelter cat stomach bug - and my cats got it when I...

Obviously I'm not a vet but I've had cats with similar symptoms. Some of the vets just called it old age, but obviously that's a short cut for the real problem. I've had cats with IBD (just because she's not responding to the diet doesn't mean she might not have it, there are other treatments...

I hear you SeaTurtle and I"m so sorry you and you're cat have to go through this. It's never easy at this stage. We all have had those fears and insecurities I believe - I know I do. My cat and I ended up in the ER at the same time tonight (no joke). I kept thinking - if only I wasn't sick too...

So hard to take pics of her other than when she's sleeping / tired - she's always moving! Very "on the go"  I'm new here and I got a request to post some pics of Susie my cat - here she is the pictures I did get.  Halloween 2013 - she hated that we carved "Her" pumpkin, she used to sniff...

I always thought Susie Q my cat for over a year now, looked a little asian with her checkbones/eyes, and possibly Russian Blue. The shelter said she might have been a little siamese - what do you guys think? My mom says she's your regular outside ally cat lol but she's indoors only now. Her eyes...

It's in my avatar - except you can't see her grey nose (so cute) She's a DSH 1/4 siamese mix, with maybe some russian blue mixed in. I love her so much, she's such a cutie. 

Thank you, she got over it, again, for now. I'm glad she's acting healthy but from past experience I'm not holding my breath. She's such a sweet cat it's sad to see her this sick. I'm feeding her Fancy Feast Classics, and want to transition her dry food to something grain free as well. The...

I'm not going back to that vet - don't get me wrong..., it just seems like every vet I take her to are like "she's healthy". So I'm like 'why does she do ... this, this, and this"? And they either have no answer or look at me like I'm lying because they can't find anything in the...

I've started her on L lysine... She seems to be the same, better then worse then better. She is still having the stomach symptoms. She doesn't really play much anymore. She's been sick (with a variety of things - see above) since I've gotten her but this most recent episode for about a month...

Thank you, it's nice to meet you :) 

Hey I'm new here on the forum, my 1st post was in cat health about my cat SQ. Right now she's the only cat I have, a grey and white Russian blue/  siamese / DSH  mix. She definitely has an attitude (see her breed) but I love her with all my heart. I feel so bad that she has to be sick the entire...
