So just to post an update, I ended up speaking to my vet again.  The only thing she said was to get her more scratching posts and remove the carpet from the apartment if at all possible.  I rent and am in grad school so that isn't really possible but I am ordering her a faux fur and rope covered...

Hi! I have a year old kitty who I think may have Pica.  This started about a month after her twin brother got sick with pancreatitis (diagnosed with blood test, etc).  I finally got him healthy and she started out with loose poo, then full out diarrhea then vomiting blood prompting a trip to...

Just for fun, here is Ollie!

Hi all! I am excited to report (and really ready for no more litter box checks, ugh!) Ollie's stool is blood free and firming up already.  He also LOVES the RX food with probiotic in it and unfortunately his sister does too so feeding time has been "fun". So far so good minus how much he HATES...

Hi!  We just got back from the Emergency Vet.  They ran a fecal, gave fluids just to be safe, gave shot of Cerenia, and antibiotic.  He came home with RX Royal Canin for two weeks, they want to do another fecal to rule out parasites and he has a probiotic, metronidazole chewies, and de-wormer...

Well, he's definitely going to the vet now, potentially the ER vet if they are even open.. we are snowed in at the moment, yay crummy VA roads.  He didn't eat dinner again last night and didn't want his breakfast but drank lots of water.  The result of the water was liquid poo with what looks...

Hi @missmimz Thank you for responding.  I looked into those foods and of that batch, and at first I thought they all either had peas or gluten except for the Young Again one (I cannot afford that one unfortunately) but Natures Instinct has two flavors on my short list that have no peas and no...

Hi! I posted a long thread in cat health about one of my three cats having stomach issues on and off and now more consistent issues this week after I fed a friskies can of shreds containing wheat gluten.  Ollie is 7 months old and has had on and off stomach issues.  I've always fed my older cat...

Hi! Thank you for your response!  I have him scheduled for an appointment but for now since he can keep the wet food down just fine, I'm supposed to feed him just that.  Hopefully he keeps on this route since this afternoon his poo was even a little more solid, woohoo! We're operating on the...

Hi! I have a 13 year old cat and two twin 7 month old kittens that were foster failures that I officially adopted in October.   They spent the holidays (Thanksgiving through just after New Years) at my parents house with me where they ate blue wilderness chicken adult cat food and occasionally...

He is on a pain med in the morning, and 1 anti biotic and ointment twice a day... I dot know their names they're not on the bottles haha, and I'm not sure exactly where I put his copy of his charts. HE's eating and drinking ok but he's holding his urine until I force him to pee in the newspaper...

The vet sent him home today finally, he's doing well so far, had a fit at the prospect of using a new (not his litter box) so while we have him locked in the living room with all of us, his escape artist ways won out and hejumped the gate and I followed him to my room (had to let him in his...

He's on a bunch of meds, uhm i dont know which ones though.. I know they told me probably 3 or 4 times but I'm so stressed I was more worried about him than what they were giving him, the vet we have (the one who took overhis care) is super and I definately trust him with Shadow. I'll find out...

Thanks, I'm doing better today having vented and kitty had his surgery today, his name is Shadow I don't even know if I made that clear haha! He had the PU surgery done.. I see Coco in your signature and ironically, Shadow looks similar.. let me find you a picture of him to add here if I can...

I'm mostly just posting for my own sanity. So please understand it's one long ramble filled with typos and the like Last monday night I got home from some friends and noticed my baby Shadow was acting kind of funny about the litter box (he did it once before and we facve him petro malt and...

MY vet and the other vet we go too are both closed until monday though and I really dont want to take him to the emeregncy vet due to problems with them in the past and at how horrifically over priced they are..I have a credit card I can so that's fine but I just need to know if I should wait...

the kind of ribbon from christmas presents (the worse kind, he found it in a bucket I had stacked, he got it open and got the ribbon out).. he has been drinking and eating just fine, he acts like he's normal but every 6 hours or so he throws up.. I'll take him to the vet if I need too but the...

Ok.. My cat is about 4 yr old.. yesterday afternoon he starting by throwing up a hairball.. ok.. no big deal.. later that night he asked for food (he's a smart cat, asks to be fed, ect) so I got up and fed him but I gave him really cold water and thoguth that might have been what made him throw...
