he gets routine dentals and is on gabapentin and amitriptyline right now for bladder issues. he is also on different food than her now, however back in 2020 when all of these issues first started, Toulouse was not on meds and he was eating the same food as her. There does seem to be a connection...
I did talk to her vet about this and he didn't mention adjusting the dosage. I think for her weight she is on the highest safe dosage. I've read it's very easy for cats to overdose on fluoxetine so I'm hesitant to give her more. My vet said if the fluoxetine isn't working properly we could try...
Nothing new is going on outside. There are birds chirping. I don't know what she can smell aside from plants. We don't live near any restaurants or anything like that that she could smell. The neighborhood is mostly pretty quiet.
I haven't black lighted the interior but we have been living...
I do think the initial moves are probably what triggered it, even though it seemingly happened over night. When I moved her she seemed perfectly confident and happy and played, cuddled, and acted like herself. Then one day I came home from the store and she was cowering and being fearful of...
We have already talked to our veterinarian behaviorist. The weird thing is she is ONLY fearful of my cat Toulouse. Nothing else at all is triggering her. I have a dog in the home and the dog gets near her and wags her tail and smacks her in the face sometime and it doesn't phase Luna at all. We...
hey yall! firstly, i have 10+ years experience working with/owning cats. I'm more well versed on animal nutrition, health and behavior than the average person but I'm still at a loss with my cat. She is 5 years old, completely blind, and spayed. She had her eyes removed at 6 months old and is...
So I have been using the catinfo.org website for many years now, ever since my cat developed urinary issues at the age of four. He is now 14 and has early kidney dysfunction. Hes been on a wet food diet since the urinary issues started. I used to think Dr. Pierson was really reputable and...
thanks so much for sharing your experience. have you noticed any other side effects to the medication? is his behavior and mannerisms now on the meds similar to how he was before the aggression started?
Thanks so much for your input. Toulouse has had chronic urinary issues since he was four. He and Luna lived together for two years and there were no issues. It started after we moved :( And it is very inconsistent. I will try reading other people’s experience with the other meds and see what...
Hi all. If you go back and read my previous posts you will see that I have been having issues with my blind cat Luna. I have tried every calming product on the market, spent hundreds on a cat behavioralist, taken her to the vet multiple times and nothing has helped. My vet put her on gabapentin...
my cat toulouse had the PU surgery 8 or 9 years ago and he has had frequent urinary tract infections and cystitis since then. at least once a year he will have bloody urine and ill have to take him in to get seen. today i took him into his normal vet and the doctor said that he had been...
luna is blind so she cant see anything. we have tried a baby gate though but she hisses and growls at him still and still cried when she was alone. we have tried not confining her but when she comes anywhere near him or even hears him make any noise she starts growling and skulking around the...
forgot to put this in my last reply and this might be a stupid question but is ignoring a cats crying going to cause her to be more anxious or cause aggression or anything? i kno that is a thing with human babies so i didnt kno if that was something cats do also
okay i will do that then thank you for your feed back. originally i was keeping her confined to my room but she cries pretty consistently and it isnt her normal i want attention meow its like a distressed sounding cry that she does and she will settle eventually if i ignore her for long enough...
Thank you so much for your understanding and empathy. I know the moves have been a lot for her. I wish I had never moved but I didn’t have a choice. I plan to be in my current home for a while so hopefully she will calm down. What brand of calming treats do you use? I got some calming probiotic...
I posted about this a while back I believe but I will try to briefly explain the situation. I have a 3 year old cat and a 13 year old cat. I got the 3 year old Luna when she was about 2 months old. She got along with my other cat perfectly even after she had to get her eyes removed. Never heard...
i mean my neighbors have dogs but aside from that i dont think theres anything. i live in the city and have a large privacy fence and am on the second floor so even if there was an animal i doubt luna could hear or smell it from my bedroom.
vanilla didnt seem to do anything. shes been more growly with him today than normal. just now he was on the bottom left corner of my bed. luna came up to me on the top right corner so on the same bed but as far from him as possible. he was asleep and she suddenly turned her head towards him and...
