    Need support.. eye enuculation tomorrow :(

    Thank you!! The appointment with the opthalmologist is this Tuesday. If he thinks he needs surgery, it will happen that day. Hoping he doesn't see any raised spots and will maybe just monitor it... we'll see. I'm prepared either way. I have a feeling if he doesn't have the surgery, he won't like...

    Need support.. eye enuculation tomorrow :(

    Thanks everyone for your support. An update this morning - the vet doing the surgery didn't see any raised spots so he recommended a second ophthalmologist to take my cat to for a second opinion. He is the best in the state and is about an hour away. Because he didn't see any raised spots...

    Need support.. eye enuculation tomorrow :(

    Thank you all so much. In tears right now. He is beautiful and I'm trying to think positively, that I'm saving him and hopefully it hasn't spread. His eyes are actually a deep gold, the pic doesn't do them jusice.

    Need support.. eye enuculation tomorrow :(

    Hi all, My 6 year old male cat, Optimus Prime, is having surgery tomorrow to get his eye removed. He has had iris melanosis (brown spots on his right eye) and I took him to the ophthalmologist today for a second opinion and because it's spread the past 6 months. She said because some spots have...

    Iris melanosis - pupil size and spreading?

    Thank you so much! I did make an ophthalmologist appointment for next week but I can always cancel it. I'm going to wait for my husband to come home from out of town and get a better pic of his eye. I worry about him like he's my kid!

    Iris melanosis - pupil size and spreading?

    I have a 6 year old male cat that has Iris Melanosis (freckles on his eye). The vet checked them out and said his freckles were flat and to keep an eye on them.  If they spread quickly or if his eye looks bulging, like it's bothering him or if his pupils are different sizes, she told me to call...

    Tidy Cats Breeze litter box- Anyone use?

    My cat liked the Breeze litter system until shortly after we moved, which was odd. He started going outside the box and I couldn't get him to go back in it. After watching him walking around in it, it looked like the pellets were uncomfortable to walk on. I switched to Dr. Elsey's cat attract...

    Does anyone else have a complaining/demanding/scolding/naggy-like cat? ^_^

    My cat has IBD and seasonal allergies. In the fall and spring when his allergies act up, I give him steroids for a couple of weeks to help with the itching. This makes him sooo hungry, more hungry than he's ever been. He will beg the crap out of me for food by meowing constantly, staring up at...

    Royal Canin food change?

    Agghh.. seems like there is hardly any good food for pets nowadays. The inflammation in his intestines is thick (last time we did an x-ray about a year ago) so that frustrates me that carageenan can cause inflammation. I want to change him to another rabbit food but it's hard to find one that...

    Royal Canin food change?

    Interesting. I have an old and new can with me too, I only looked at the first line of ingredients, didn't read all the way through.  The 2-3 cans that I fed him before realizing the name change (I saw 'rabbit and pea' on the box and fed him a few cans without realizing they no longer said...

    Type of Litter

    I use Dr. Elsey's Cat Attract unscented litter since my cat had problems going elsewhere in the house after we moved. It's been great - no accidents anywhere, no litter tracking (we also have a litter mat outside the box) and it doesn't smell. Good clumping too.

    Royal Canin food change?

    I just called and am posting in case it helps others. So the standards by which the food was produced under the Hypoallergenic label will be the same with the new Selected Protein label. It will have the same 'hypoallergenic properties' as the food with the Hypoallergenic label. The food...

    Chewing on wires/plastic etc

    My cat, Prime, has been obsessed with chewing wires since we got him at 4 months old. Even after spraying bitter spray on it, he still wanted to chew. We have to cover with cable protectors or just keep them hidden. He also LOVES to lick you. Must have been weaned too soon or something.

    Royal Canin food change?

    Hi all, I have a 5 year old cat with IBS and food allergies. He is allergic to chicken, beef, and fish. He is on the Royal Canin veterinarian diet, rabbit and pea (canned). I know this isn't the best diet for him, but his tummy does well on it, no throwing up or diarrhea. I noticed the cans...
