My heart goes out to you and Milo!  It sounds like you've made peace with your decision, and know that you're doing what's best for him.  I just came across your thread while waiting for test results on my 18 year old Sparky.  The vet thinks he either has hyperthyroidism or cancer, so I came...

Lyrajean is right.  You just need to spend time with him, talk to him in a calm, soothing voice, probably not pet him, but just sit nearby, and let him decide when he's ready to interact and explore more of the house.  It'll take some time, but it will be worth it! 

Thank you for your help. I can't wait to get him in to see what the vet says. If she thinks it will help, they'll do the first treatment that day! Mine have a few favorite toys too (out of a housefull)!  : )  Guess I can't blame them for that though, since I'm the one bringing them home... ...

I am so sorry you and Bailey had to go through all of that!  You definitely did the right thing for her.  I'm sure those few possible months wouldn't have been good ones for her, and would have eventually led to a lot of unnecessary pain--not the kind of end that she deserved. I love my guys too...

to Push Purr Cat Paws  I'm so sorry about your cat!  At least you did everything you could to ease her pain and suffering.     I've been giving Harvey .1 ml twice a day since Tuesday afternoon, and he's doing great!  She originally prescribed .2 ml twice a day, but they were both total zombies...

to CATLADY VET TECH  Thanks for your advice!  I was wondering how effective laser treatment is, as it's still fairly new for pets, from what I've been reading. It's good to hear you're having good results with it!  I'd like to have that done so he doesn't need to be on pain medication (or could...

I wasn't sure if it was the same product, but will probably buy from Amazon since it isn't a prescription drug!  She charged $28, so it wasn't alot more (from what I remember), but I buy other stuff for them from Amazon too, so it'll be much easier and cheaper than getting to her office during...

I'm so sorry about your poor kitty!  That must be so hard to handle!  I'm sure you definitely know a lot about worrying!  It sounds like you're taking great care of her though, and I see she's got friends, so she's a lucky girl.  : )   I'm going to call first thing on Monday.  I thought she was...

Well, she never really said anything about long term use, because I told her on the first visit that I'd like to get them laser therapy asap.  What I've read online about buprenorphine seems to go from one extreme to the other, so I'm not really sure what to believe.  That's why I thought I'd...

I took my two 18 year old male cats (Sparky and Harvey) to the vet 2 weeks ago to see about getting laser therapy, or at least some help for their arthritis pain.  We just moved here a few months ago, and it's the first time I've been able to afford to bring them in.  They were just prescribed...
