    Intestinal Mass in 15 yo FIV positive cat, whether to operate or not.

    I can’t tell you what to do, but I went through a similar situation last year with my boy who was 14/15 at the time. Masses were found in his stomach and due to his age, some other health issues and location (with our vets input) we decided not to do a biopsy. We started him on gabapentin and...

    What dose of Prozac?

    For those who have cats on Prozac what dosage are you giving and how long did it take your cat to adjust? My boy has been sleeping a lot more since starting it though today he was awake and playing more. We are on week 3 of 5mg daily.

    A MEOWer!!!!

    I already have cameras. As I said there are deer outside sometimes. Maybe the occasional skunk. He doesn’t meow when he is outside in the enclosure. Gabapentin definitely calms him. He was on it for a short period when he had the crystals.

    Good point. I have not tried music. I will give that a go. He is not really a cuddly cat though he does sit with me for at least a little bit daily and when he’s sleeping he does sleep in my vicinity.

    We do have some deer in the back yard occasionally, but not really anything besides that (we are in a rural area).

    A MEOWer!!!!

    I just looked at my other post and realized I didn’t share my response. I had wrote one out that said my husband had mentioned that ki may be going through grief and my broken heart was hoping she wasn’t also suffering from a broken heart but now I do think that’s what it was. I forgot to...

    A MEOWer!!!!

    In my other post I said I was hopeful that Ki wasn’t grieving…I WISH Colossus was grieving lol. At least it would give me an answer. He has been like this for 8 years on and off though he definitely now has more weeks of meowing during the day consistently than he used to.

    I’m sorry about your kitty having cancer. I hope you have much more good time with him!!! I think we own almost every type of toy imaginable. I have bird wands, string, worms, feather. Regular soft toys in all shapes and sizes. Cat nip. Scratchers. Ball toys. Etc. He plays with our other cats...

    It is a “calming” probiotic that has a certain strain that is supposed to help with anxiety. It’s Purina calming care.

    Senior cat meowing all night after death of sister

    If you look back on my post history I swear we are almost identical. I even just updated a post about my cat yowling before I saw yours. I’m actually shocked at how similar our stories are!!! We lost our boy Petey to stomach cancer on June 19th. Around the same time our older girl stated yowling...

    Sudden Yowling

    I just wanted to update this post since it’s been 2 months. Ki has pretty much stopped the night time yowling. I really believe it was a stress/grief response to our Petey passing away. She stopped eating the food when Gabapentin was in it so I stopped giving it to her and besides an occasional...

    A MEOWer!!!!

    Anyone deal with an overly talkative cat? Have you found any solutions?? Our boy Colossus is 8(neutered). For his entire life he has meowed A LOT!! Mostly at night time. Hours on end meowing. If I am awake and up moving he is fine. The moment my eyes close he starts. If my husband is awake he...

    Upper respiratory infection help

    I am amazed at how contagious it is even when a cat isn’t showing symptoms. We isolated her for a while when we brought her home and she had no symptoms when we let her around the others and 3 out of 4 still caught it. Hoping our other girl doesn’t get it. She prescribed azythromycin today...

    Upper respiratory infection help

    I talked to them and she prescribed an antibiotic. She said the eye discharge could last two weeks and if not better then to bring him in. Luckily yesterday morning prior to getting the antibiotics he started looking better and playing around so hopefully he is on the mend. Thank you!!
