Hi catwoman707,
Thank you so much!! Very helpful!! I wish my vet think as you do!
My two cats were fully vaccinated as kittens and up until they were 9 years old. I'm afraid of side effects, too.
Hi MServant,
Thank you! We moved to the same city, so we still can go to the same vet. Oh good point, I didn’t think about the pet insurance require specific vaccinations! I think we have the petplan, I’ll check it! I really don’t want to take her to the vet if it’s not necessary. She always...
I have a question about the vaccine titer.
My cat, Tabby is an indoor cat, does she still need to take a FVRCP Booster vaccine?
She is 10 years old, and she has IBD. She had a hard time last year, very fortunately, she is doing really well this year. She hasn’t taken any medications since...
Hi missmimz,
Thank you so much for your response!
She is 10 years old. She is doing really well, play well, sleep well, and eat well!! Haha. Her BUN/Creatinine Ratio is 11. I can’t find SDMA though. BUN’s Adult Reference Range is 4-33 Ratio, so 11 is normal, right?
The vet also mentioned...
Hi everyone!
I took one of my cats to a vet for annual exam this week. The lab test shows that her Creatinine level is 1.8. Even though the adult reference range is 0.6-2.4 mg/dL, our vet said she has the mild elevation in her kidney enzyme. She told me to feed her commercial renal diets...
Hi GoHolistic,
Thank you so much for the information! That made me feel less uncomfortable giving Tabby the medications.
The reason why is Tabby’s energy level is high, she wants to play her toys a lot! She sleeps well, too. Other than her fussiness, she is doing well. Also, I wanted to try...
Hi LisaHE,
That’s great that the homemade food keeps Ireland’s stomach happiest! My vet still thinks the prescription diets are the best for Tabby.
Tabby is doing well. The vet advised me, even if she doesn’t eat her plate, I shouldn’t open other canned food. Just wait 10 minutes. That was...
Hi LisaHE Thank you so much!
I took Tabby to the vet Saturday. The vet said it may be a flare-up, and suggested me to give her Pepcid (Famotidine), and Cerenia. I don’t know these medicines are really necessary for her right now… Because she hasn’t vomited for a while… Cerenia is the strong...
Hi LisaHE,
Thank you so much for your kind words!
YES!! She ATE her lunch and dinner!!! She couldn’t finish it, but she ate more than a half of the plate! I was going to give her tuna, but she was fine eating NV 95% beef!I really hope her fussiness is just she doesn’t want to eat NV… not a...
Thank you Artiemom for sharing the Artie’s story and your kind words!
So, no vomiting nor diarrhea when he had a flare up? Tabby’s main symptom was vomiting, and she lost a lot of weight. Very fortunately, she’s been well this year. I finally could stop giving her Prednisolone in March!
Even...
So this morning, she didn’t want to eat at all…
I opened three different canned foods, even Lotus Just Juicy Pork for the first time, but she didn’t want to eat…
I called and made an appointment with our vet… The earliest appointment available was tomorrow morning. I’ll try to feed her, maybe...
Good morning GoHolistic!
Thank you so much for sharing Sebastian’s story,and your thoughtful words. I'm so sorry for your loss… Sebastian must had a wonderful life, because of you!
Hi Artiemom,
Aww Artie is so cute!! Thanks for sharing his story and a picture!!
Tabby never had a flare-up, If you don’t mind, could you tell me how was Artie’s flare? and how did he come out of the flare?
So too much fish is not good for cats… Hmm… so I shouldn’t keep giving her salmon… ...
