    Itchy Ears and Head Shaking

    Babe was very wary on the morning of the appointment.  But once she got into the kitchen I nudged her easily into the crate and off we went. She has an ear infection in her left ear and is being treated with Baytril and Surolan drops.   No mites were visible.  She has fibrosis in her ear canal...

    Rolly has pancreatic cancer

    I am so sorry about the loss of both of your cats. That must have been very difficult. There will always be a trade-off when owning our pet animals.  For the love and enjoyment they gave us during their lifetime, there will be unfathomable pain when they leave us.  It's the price we pay for...

    Rolly has pancreatic cancer

    This is my first post on this forum.   I'm writing this through tears because yesterday I had my beloved cat, Rupert, put to sleep because of his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.  He was twelve.  I guess it's human nature to second guess our decisions and today I'm struggling with my conscience...
