Hey everyone, I had a house visit from Rockwell's new vet who looked him over and told me he is far older than the first vet said (pegging Rockwell at around 10 years).  He has intestinal lymphoma, which explains a great many things (the vomiting, diarrhea, appetite but loss of weight, elevated...

I'm not entirely sure why he wasput on W/D.  The vet had him on I/D but Rockwell almost never ate it (he's pick at 2 or 3 pieces then give up and beg for wet food).  I might request the wet version of the W/D.  I did have a question about the probiotics.  Which type of probiotic do you give your...

Thank you, Pinkdagger for the swift response! I've bought several types of catnip which didn't work, and valerian didn't either.  I was hoping to be filled with hours of entertainment.  The vet said it was probably parasites that was making him so thin, and he's been through 2 rounds of...

Hello All, I'm new (as of 3:26pm on 5/30!) to your site but have been haunting it searching for answers to my cat issues. The story: About 8 months ago, I was coming home from getting coffee and a small kitten-sized cat came off the street, started meowing and rubbing on my leg.  I'm...
