    I'm desperately trying to save Shenanigans

    I am so worried about my 12 year old rescue cat Shenanigans and I feel helpless. I just lost 3 of my babies, after doing everything  that I could to try to save them, and I don't want to lose another. I had a full work up and blood panel done on him yesterday and it showed nothing definitive...

    older cat, back legs going out

    I hope you have taken your baby to the vet by now and I hope it is something that can be treated. When I read that her back legs were going out the first thing I thought of was kidney failure. Then when you wrote that she is urinating on the floor that also supported kidney failure. I know this...

    At wit's end

    I read in your first post that you said blood work revealed "a perfectly healthy feline" but I have had too many instances where, for whatever reason, a test result was skimmed over when it should have been a red flag for the vet. In my experiences when a cat is suffering from kidney disease...

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    Thanks!!So far so good, she is still eating I didn't look in her mouth to see if her tongue looks any better,  I am just going to let her do her thing and eat away. I'm going to keep her on the Zithromycin until it's gone (she is on the once every three day regimen now) and I hope this ulcer...

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    Good news...Cheeto is eating!!! I don't know if it was the Zithromycin, the Buprenex injection, or even the butter, but she has a voracious appetite and seems to be eating with no more pain, no chattering, head twisting or drooling. I am so thankful!!

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    Mouse is so fortunate that his lesion healed up. I had one other cat, who passed away about 5 months ago, that had a tongue ulcer very similar to Cheeto's and she too healed up. I really didn't do anything aggressive for her, I guess her immune system was just stronger than Cheeto's, or her...

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    I took Cheeto back to the vet today, got loads of medicine. She got an injection of Buprenex for her mouth pain and although she is completely stoned right now, I don't think it helped her pain because she is still chattering. I probed the vet more about what caused this tongue lesion, and now...

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    Thanks SO MUCH for all the suggestions, advice, and sympathy.  I didn't even suspect a yeast or fungal infection but i can definitely question the vet about that. If this poor cat is suffering like this because of something as simple as Calici virus or something that has a treatment I will feel...

    Need help for a tongue ulcer

    Cheeto is a super sweet 7 year old rescue that I have had since she was 5 months old. She developed stomatitis a few years ago, nothing new for me, it seems like 1 out of every 5 or 6 cats I rescue developes this mouth problem. I currently have 2 cats with stomatitis and I keep it under control...
