Thank you very much! She was about 7 but was also a very large cat, physically large as well as overweight at 18lbs. When we got to the ER I had to have someone come out to the car to get her, once the saw her they laughed and understood why I couldn't lift her.

We had ringworm with Persians (thanks to a lovely breeder that hid the fact it was running ramped in her home). When I got a cat from her it had one tiny spot that was hidden with all of the hair, but the stress of moving made it break out all over. We started immediate treatment of oral meds...

Unfortunately, they couldn't help her. Ultrasound showed a huge clot as well as several smaller and no blood flow to her hind quarters. Probably heart disease coupled with being over weight in general. Without an echocardiogram we won't really know. The outcome would be the same even if we...

We are there, the closest place open was 1 1/2 hours away. Just hoping for the best.

My grandson came down this morning to tell me that his cat was meowing oddly. I went upstairs to find her under the bed dragging her body. She is nearly 20lbs but she is managing to get around and can bring her legs under her using her front to balance. She rolls herself over when she wants to...

So sorry for the loss of your other kitty, it's sounds traumatic for everyone involved. It sounds like you are doing everything you can to make the transition easier. In regards to the shelter not disclosing "respiratory illness", I guess I would want to know more about what exactly this...

Yes, she is spayed. In her first 6 years, despite frequent attempts, she only had one litter of two kittens and one survived, then got pregnant another time and lost 3 very underdeveloped babies. I think the reason she attempted for so many years was that she is an F2 and she was super...

I can tell you that I have brought 3 adult cats into my home in the last two years. Non of them were accustomed to other cats, dogs or kids. It took a lot of patience and understanding but they have adjusted well. IMO, I think sometimes people try to make the transitions to quickly and the...

Thank you Columbine! Thank you, you know I am just not sure what's she is trying to get across to me. We went thru one instance that while I was away for a week she started to pee under the bed, when I got home it continued, I implemented calming pheromones, changed types of litters, cleaned...

Simba was crated and casted for almost 2 years due to her injuries. The first attempt at reattaching the tendons failed. The second surgery was partially effective. The owner was so careful with her rehab and confinement. She did everything she could. But the fact was that no amount of...

Nisha came to us about 18 months ago as a seven-year-old retired F2 Bengal breeder. The transition was very rocky but she is now a very sweet girl to me. In the beginning she hid in a corner and even eye contact would make her growl and hiss. she tolerates my husband and children but...

Thank you for taking this momma kitty into your home! Cats will lick and lick and then lick some more to keep an area clean, that will cause it to take a while to heal. We have several instances of cats fighting or finding cats with puncture wounds. Sometimes they are just holes in a few...

Quick intro, I am owned by several kitties. Nisha is a retired F2 Silver Spotted Bengal Breeder who I adopted about 18 months ago. Simba is a brown Bengal who I adopted a week after Nisha, she was a surprise but I couldn't say no to a sweetie in need. Simba needed a home due to the prior owner...
