    Cat Depression?

    Thanks for the link.  There was a lot of helpful stuff on it.   The vet called and he is doing much better today.  He is eating and normal body functions are returning.  Tomorrow, she will re-do his blood work so we know where he is.

    Cat Depression?

    His sister, Maydela, died in the hospital.  So from his perspective, his sister left and just didn't come home.  When we got the "kitten," we did everything that we were supposed to do to introduce a new cat, but Maydela was ticked off.  That following Friday, she got out of the house and...

    Does your cat come when you call it?

    My cats come when I make the right clicking noises, but we have never had a cat who responded to his/her name.  We may not have trained them to come to their name, but it never seemed that important, at least to them.  I honestly do not believe that cats have the same ability to process language...

    Sad Day

    Thank you so much for your kind words.  Since we were diligent on making certain that she was always up to date on all her vaccinations, she had regular check-ups, we are confident that we had done everything for her and nothing could have saved her.  As the critical care vet acknowledged...

    Sad Day

    I am new to the forum, but needed a place to share our very sad new.  Yesterday, our cat Maydela, lost her very short battle with cancer.   She started acting odd just about 2 weeks ago.  She was always a little love bug, and always wanted to be around us and loved spending the evenings in my...
