I lost one male to oral cancer. Just a few weeks ago, I lost another to kidney disease. A routine exam today shows another male with beginnings of kidney disease. I am just beside myself. The fourth male had a blood clot in the aorta and can hardly walk, is at high risk for another clot.

This is all happening at once, and I am just knocked out by it, so sad, not understanding why all the males are going so fast.

 Just need an ear, thank you.

I know this will not make YOU feel any better. If your three males were very close, it is quite possible that they are grieving, thus likely depressed and their bodies are under stress. Just as in humans, stress can and does bring on illnesses to cats and dogs. I have experienced this myself.

I am very sorry for your losses, and now having another sick kitty. Try Rescue Remedy for pets. It reduces stress. If stress is a factor and you are able to get it under control, maybe his health will improve. You can buy Rescue Remedy at most health/natural food stores. If you decide to get it, be sure to buy the one made for pets, as Rescue Remedy is also available for human consumption, which contains alcohol. The formula for pets does not contain any alcohol.

My thoughts are with you, and I hope his condition will improve.

I'm very sorry... I came on here to look up some info on my kitten's illness and found your post. It's been so hard on me emotionally to have one ill kitten, so my heart really feels heavy for you. Hugggs...
