    My Cat Wants Me To Pet Him When He Eats

    Hi there: I give him so much attention. He is always either spread out by my side, playing with me, or I pick him up and love him up. When he is sleeping in the sun, I can trim his nails and he doesn't wake up. So much trust. I know why cats knead, I am saying that he just started kneading...

    My Cat Wants Me To Pet Him When He Eats

    Hi, I have not written in a while. I adopted a cat named Sushi. We are together today for 10 months. I cannot think of my life without him anymore. He started some new behaviors in the past few months. Now, I have to bend down and pet him when he eats. He will walk away from his food if I...

    Update on Sushi

    I have had Sushi now for 8 months.  9 months on March 29th.  From the moment I adopted him, I knew he was meant to be my little companion cat. His kidneys have not deteriorated much since the last exam, as he is eating his Renal with enthusiasm and drinking lots of water. He is not in pain or...

    Dealing with my grief

    Dear Filomail: I read your post.  I grieve with you.  At least you have two other fur balls to love and cuddle.  When I adopted my rescue cat Sushi, the vet did not know that he was already in a stage of kidney failure.  We found this out when I had an untra sound performed with a bunch of...

    Comment by 'jkuras' in article 'Playing With Your Cat: 10 Things You Need To Know'

    Hi, My cat Sushi is so interesting.  He created games with me - one of his favorite is hide and seek.  He initiates it.  Then I call out where is Sushi and he runs around and hides.  When I find him I say Gottcha.  He puffs up his tail and runs and hides again.  I laugh so much, it brings me so...

    My cat has a bad reaction to any canned foods

    Hi:  Thank you.  Again, I had my vet consult with a kidney specialist for cats.  He looked at the ultra scans, blood workup, urine directly form his bladder, and other tests on the blood and urine. There is nothing I can do to prevent kidney failure.  He has deformed kidneys that are going to...

    My cat has a bad reaction to any canned foods

    Hi:  Thank you for your kind response.  No more tests.  He went through hell already. He has had every single test imaginable, including an ultra scan.  That is how we discovered his kidneys were not fully formed.  As my vet explained and I also had a specialist look at the ultra sound and blood...

    My cat has a bad reaction to any canned foods

    I have had my rescue cat 6 months.  We already know that he has deformed kidneys but also would frequently stop eating and drinking which had nothing to do with that problem.  After putting him through all kinds of tests over a period of 5 months, medicating him, and then trying different wet...

    Hi all:  I needed to clarify that I have been seeing a vet as I explained and she came to my home today on Saturday when this was her day off. He is good.  They already took so many tests.  He has an underdeveloped Kidney.  I had a Kidney cat specialist look at his xrays when they discovered...

    Does Anyone Recognize these Symptons

    Hi:   My cat Sushi is getting sick too often.  He does have underdeveloped kidneys, but so far he has been OK as I am feeding him fancy feast pates and Renal for Kidney function. I adopted him 5 months ago.  He did have a virus which an antibiotic cleared up immediately.  Several months ago, he...

    Sushi just stopped eating

    Hi:  Ever since Sushi is home,  he clings to me even more.  He also wants me to pet him when he is eating.  So sweet.  At night, he goes under the covers with me and puts his head next to mine on the pillow.  He cannot get enough of me.  I think he is exhibit a cat appreciation.  So good to see...

    Sushi just stopped eating

    Hi All.  The vet discovered that what Sushi has is a form of urinary tract infection which he cleared up.  Sushi was not a good patient.  Screamed and howled for both nights he was at the vet, while hitting himself against the cage and trying to rip out the catheter that was feeding him...
