I'm so glad he's doing better! It sounds like he's healing well. I know it's a lot of work to care for a kitty that's recovering. You're doing a great job!

How is Zeus doing?

Aww, poor guy! That cone looks really nice. That was a great idea. Can you call the surgeon and ask how to clean his ear?

It sounds like you've found some good ways to make him comfortable and happy. The soft cone makes sense, and I would think that would help. It looks like he's healing well!

I have no idea why I didn't get the notifications. I did get one tonight! I'm glad to hear that Zeus was able to settle down and is getting some sleep. It is so stressful to go through things like this with our kitties! I am thinking of you and am hoping you can get some rest.

I hadn't seen any of your latest updates because I wasn't receiving email notifications like I usually do! I'm so glad he's home and doing well, but it looks like it's going to be challenging to take care of him with the cone and confinement. You are doing a great job with him! Keep us updated!

Thanks for the update! I hope all goes well with Zeus's appointment!

Ok, I'm convinced to try the Canna-Pet now :) My vet actually suggested that as an alternative, since my cat also developed a tolerance for Mirtazapine after it worked great for 2 years. I tried Cyproheptadine, but it worked no better than the Mirtazapine, and made my kitty too sleepy. I was...

So sorry to hear about your kitty Tiger! My kitty is on Cerenia & Zantac as well. She actually doesn't seem that nauseous, and has a fairly good appetite considering her issues, but only for baby food! I have tried almost every brand of cat food there is, including Max Cal, and she'll only eat a...

My cat has been only eating baby food for some time now. I have tried everything, including appetite stimulants, to get her to eat cat food, but it doesn't work. My cat has CKD, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and anemia, so I pretty much have to give her whatever she'll eat. However, I'm worried...

My cat was diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypercalcemia 5 years ago. I switched her from Lactulose to Miralax, and the problem never returned. However, I also started aggressively treating her IBD at the same time, so I am not sure if the uncontrolled IBD or the Lactulose caused the Hypercalcemia.

I'm so sorry to hear about your relative! Let me know when the results come back.

Just checking in to see how it went today!

Let me know how your appointment goes! I'm praying that you get good news and helpful advice!

I also forgot to mention that my cat's ears were previously itchy & waxy. My vet recommended using Zinc Otic, 2x a week, and it really cleared up her ears & stopped the itching. The Zinc Otic is a mild cleansing solution that you drop directly into the ear. It's another tool to try :)

My cat has had these types of cysts in her ears for many years, but she only has a few at a time and they are smaller. My vet calls them inflammatory cysts, and since they don't really bother her, we have not removed them. Prednisolone is the most common treatment for inflammation, and my cat is...

It took her at least 24 hours to process the fluids. She has never been diagnosed with a heart problem. Part of the problem is that she was on a steroid, and we increased the dosage. Of course, steroids can cause fluid retention as well. For whatever reason, she couldn't handle all the fluids we...

I began giving my Tigger 75ml SubQ fluids, 2 days on, then one off a week ago, due to a Creatinine level of 4.9. Her Creatinine went down to 3.0, but she stopped eating and became extremely ill. I noticed that the last time I gave her fluids, they weren't absorbing. I notified my vet, who...

Prayers for you and Lazlo!

I don't have advice, but just want to say that I'm so sorry for your loss!!
