I'm absolutely devastated... I found out today my precious Angel has a spinal infection. Some of you may remember I posted in December that she was wobbly and I went to the vets and got told it was just some pressure on her nerve, was given anti inflammatories and sorta left it. He acted like it...

Thanks again everyone. x

cprcheetah- I will get her some supplements then :) raintyger - Thank you, I have seen a website advising against the use of metacam, and I was quite alarmed that I saw it in my vets surgery today. :( I would always ask for an alternative wherever possible.

Hi cprcheetah.  I will definitely be adding some glucosamine to her diet. Do you happen to know if foods that contain it have a high enough concentration of it or should I be getting the capsules? But yeah thats all he gave her as he checked her legs and hips/pelvis pretty thoroughly and...

Yes please see my previous post about what the vet said. No tests were done, but I am actually quite unhappy with his suggestion because it happened alll of a sudden and wouldn't disc damage be a gradual process? Hopefully next week I will be able to take her to another surgery to get a 2nd...

Thanks for the suggestions :) Just realised another problem... shes fine going up the stairs but can't get down the stairs at all, she falls down them... I don't know what to do... I can't confine her to a pen... seems like every few minutes I find a new issue...

Thank you both for your replies. I assume there is inflammation if he's given her a shot but I don't think he actually said for certain. I will look into Krill Oil. :) 

Well I don't know how I feel right now. I felt really bad for her driving up there as she was crying, poor thing. :(  I guess there is good news and bad news. Good news - it isn't anything life-threatening and the vet seems to think shes got a few years left in her yet :) He thinks it's nerve...

So sorry to hear... my Angel is having problems too... its horrible this happening at any time but xmas just feels worse. Sending positive thoughts your way. X

Hi :) yes ill do an introduction when im on my computer. She has maybe lost a bit of weight but shes a very small cat naturally so its hard to tell! She doesn't feel inordinately skinny to me but hopefully the vet will weigh her. Not noticed much difference with her drinking to be honest in...

Also sorry for double posting but shes 13 if that helps. Im having such a hard time emotionally as I have my grandfathers funeral on friday too. :(

My cat Angel is pretty much my best friend. She means the world to me. Yesterday afternoon my mum and I noticed she was being clumsy and walking weird, like tilting over to one side. One of her legs seems to be b bit 'off' and she was being very wobbly. She couldnt jump up then but later on she...
