My grief varies far and wide. There are so many factors from situation to situation. I'd imagine this is the case for everyone, including you. And grief never looks the same (in my experience), case-by-case.
"Not grieving hard enough"--impossible. You're grieving as hard as you need to. As long...
Not a veterinarian, but in my experience...
If there have been no issues with the healing process, she is eating/drinking/urinating/defecating normally, and she's not displaying any signs of pain or the like, eight days is plenty of time, and she can resume to normal activity.
Signed, a cat...
Road trip is the way to go. 🚙 If they aren't used to and pleasant with/in cars (most aren't), you need to get a sedative (pill) from your veterinarian. Test it on them before the trip, during clinic hours so you can bring them in if they have a reaction.
They last 7-12 hours depending on the...
Excellent, thank you so much! I wouldn't ever use a non-breakaway collars (and I'd rather avoid one with constant fragrances or other chemicals rubbing on them all the time), but I do appreciate the heads up there!
Yeah, it's sounding like sticking with Multicat may be the way to go. :hearthrob:
Ah, that makes perfect sense. I do understand you have to tread carefully with her sensitive system!
Everything I'm finding suggests the same as you're finding—egg yolk is a laxative. However, every cat is different, and while most can eat poultry just fine, some have an intense allergy to it...
The cat you see in my profile picture (rescued at 4 weeks old) looked just like your cat (fur/color/coat wise) in all of these pictures at various ages!! He had a gorgeous, wild fever coat when he was a rambunctious kitten. He was about 1.5 year old in this picture. I'll post it here, as well...
I have a few thoughts!
Could the powdered egg yolk be the issue? I have an ongoing note in my phone that I fine tune as time goes on (all things feline nutrition), and the bit I have "For Hairballs" says:
Raw egg yolk. Whip up an egg yolk and add 1/4 teaspoon to each meal.
It may be worth a...
Thanks for your response, Alldara! :lovecat:
Is there a particular reason you prefer the Multicat in your home? Does it seem to be more effective at keeping the peace, lasts longer, etc.? Or is the main thing Magnus being more jumpy on Optimum than on Multicat?
I've never heard of the...
Actually, no! :happycat: You'd think so though, huh? The further I've gotten with writing and tutoring, etc., the more appreciative I've come of new linguistic trends, shorthand, and various styles of writing.
But I did get a kick out of it regardless. Thank you for the welcome! :catman:
Oof. That sounds about as bad as the 2 week old orphaned, half-alive kittens I've rescued. What a mess.
The kitten's health is first and foremost here. Is the kitten on medication for treating coccidia such as Toltrazuril or Ponazuril? It's a nasty parasite, so you'll want to have that cleared...
