Hi Everyone, Bad time today, after finding out my 14 year old boy has been diagnosed with an osteosarcoma in his upper jaw, and the suggestion is that he may have about six months to live. Surgery is not an option as the loss of such a large part of his jaw would be too damaging to his quality...

Hi guys thanks for your responses. Cat princesses those are some great ideas, thanks. I hadn't heard about the B12, I'll look it up. The food and probiotics ideas also sound good. I'm going to trial her on royal canin sensitive food next as I've read it has stopped these symptoms in other cases...

Hi Guys, Any thoughts on my ten year old somali cat's bowel issues would be really appreciated! For 6 weeks I've been aware of her having nasty bowel movements - it started out with completely liquid stool containing lots of mucus and some blood. The vet gave her pro-kolin stool firmer...
