My vet had us do Zithromax for 6 weeks. We did 1 week every day then every 3 days for the remaining 5 weeks. It was a miracle for Rosie. I had done several courses of other antibiotics, lysine, and the lactoferrin. Now I just do the lysine in her wet food twice a day. She is a whole new...

Rosie update: Went to the vet on Friday, this time she did have some bacteria in her urine (vet wasn't sure if true UTI or contaminate since they just needle aspirate the bladder rather then wait for them to pee).  But between that and her ongoing upper respiratory flare we got 14 days of...

Usually the chases are because Rosie see's Lilly as a toy, or because Lilly is in a spot Rosie wants to be.  Lil sometimes will run under a bed, give her a swat, sometime it ends with Lil just looking at her with a "are you kidding me" look.  There is never a fight, hiss or anything violent. ...

All her peeing is outside the box, she does still poo in the box. Nothing that he took furniture wise was a favorite hang out for her, but it was stuff that she'd occasionally hang out on. She is chasing her sister slightly more then normal. She will sometimes chase Lilly, but other times like...

Thanks so much for your great response.  Rosie is never aggressive with me and gets nonstop loving when I am home.  Even sleeps on my pillow at night.  I've been stepping up her play time as well she is only about 2 1/2 or so and she has been getting some extra catnip too.  When I do go to work...

My husband recently left me and our cats.  The girls were fine at first (they never really liked him anyway) but now that he has taken some of the furniture and the house is different Rosie is having litter box issues peeing near the box, but not in it.  To add to the fun the house is on the...

What microchip companies do you recommend?  I got a year free from 24petwatch when I adopted my "girls" and now they are up for renewal.  I asked our vet and they said any company is fine to use.  Are the free sites as good as they pay ones? 

Thanks so much. She is acting like her giant kitten self playing, loving, and chasing her sister lilly.

Our first cat licked us, toes were her favorite, she loved it when the flip-flops came out. We took it as a sign of affection and loved kitty kisses. It's one of the things i miss most about her.

One more question for those who have dealt with herpes, will Rosie always sound "stuffy" or will she be "normal" she has been having this flare since we got her in April.

Thanks for the help.  I have taken her in the bathroom during a long hot shower, it helps a bit.  When she was more acutely ill I did saline drops and 1/2 strength afrin  (she did get a lot of mucus out with the afrin).  We even bulb suctioned her nose (the respiratory therapist in me came out...

When I adopted Rosie and Lilly in April they both had the shelter crud and did 21 days of doxy given to me by the shelter.  After they were done Rosie seemed to get it again so I took her to my vet.  The vet guesses she has Herpes (she came from a hoarder and had kittens before she was 1)  We...

After a UTI that we verified is cleared my cat was still having pee issues with the litter box (she would go on the picnic table cloth under the box).  We have 2 cats and 2 litter maids.  Thinking the litter maid may have been a bit small I changed it out for a tote with cat attract litter.  And...
