    Lucy had her follow up today and is completely better128049 and she gained another pound and is up to 5 pounds so one more pound to go. I was so relieved,especially after the vet told me she hadn't really thought Lucy would make it so my kitty has really come a long way.128512128512

    It was a huge relief! And I don't know who had a bigger smile over the weight gain - me or the vet! Question: is this something she can reget from her germs when she comes home? She sneezed everywhere. I already washed everything I could that she laid on and went and bought Lysol to spray...

    Thx Margo 128512. When I realized she was so sick I was just worried sick and really had no one to talk to about it. I am disabled and pretty much stuck at home most of the time. My family and friends have dogs and that's all their pets are : just dogs. They really don't get the furbaby concept...

    I found this wonderful site when I adopted a shelter kitty who is having some big problems. She is only the 2nd cat I've ever had and my 1st cat was healthy his entire life. I wanna give a big heartfelt thank you to all who have given me advice and encouraging words. Here is Lucy Lou

    Tuna water

    My shelter kitty was dehydrated and I saw advice for tuna water on here and asked vet about it, she said go ahead. Do I need to refrigerate any undrunken portions?

    Do not understand New shelter kitty

    She said while she wasn't ruling out fip it was lower down on her list because Lucy didn't have a distended stomach and there wasn't a yellowish fluid. I said wasn't there 2 kinds of fip? Wet and dry? And she nodded but didn't add anything else. So I dunno guess I'll just have to wait until...

    Do not understand New shelter kitty

    Thx cat woman you really put my mind and heart at ease if I do have to make that decision. The vet has seen cases of flip before. I wish I had a copy to post as well, I explained to them that I had a traumatic brain injury that sometimes plays havoc with my memory especially if it's something...
