Well, Bugsy spent the night in the litterbox. He actually threw up in it as well, which he did once right before I took him in for the blockage. I tried giving him a treat and he shunned it away. So, I am calling the vet back when they open and I'm hoping to get some answers because it's as if...

Thank you for the response. He's on the Orbax to help combat the UTI. As I stated, he just had his tract unblocked on Friday, so I know everything associated with it is going to be tender for a few days. I guess I'm just trying to find out if this is his way of making it through until he's...

My male cat Bugsy ended up spending Friday night at the vet after I took him in because I thought, and was correct, that he was blocked and couldn't pee. I took him in early that morning and checked with my vet that evening and she said he was doing ok, had a cone around his neck and a catheter...

Thank you everyone for the incredibly warm responses. As mentioned in another post, it's so helpful in the grieving process to come to a place where people can understand, truly, what these incredible animals can do with/to us. I think about my little girl every day and am so glad I could...

Ever since I started having cats of my own, I've always had 2 cats. It's always been my belief that they should always have another buddy to play with! I just lost my little girl, Kora, just yesterday and I still have my other cat, Bugsy, that's coming up on the big 3 years old! I want to get...

The only one I see in your post that actually gave that little kitty a chance, was you. I truly believe that little bundle of fur was meant to find you. No matter how long you were together, look how that little fur ball made you feel. Please be gentle with yourself. You did nothing wrong...

So adorable. Those pictures are really a great depiction of how happy that little boy was! You were both blessed to have each other. I am so sorry for your loss.

My Beautiful Kora girl, I made the hard decision to let you go yesterday, Babygirl. When I saw you in the morning, something just told me inside, that it was time for you to move on and be with the big guy upstairs. I couldn't and wouldn't watch you suffer and let cancer hurt you anymore. So...

Well, my Kora is having issues. About a year ago, I noticed my 5 year old tortie, Kora, looked skinnier then usual and was throwing up and having diarrhea almost every day. I ended up taking her to the vet, did the usual exam, bloodwork and Xrays over a period of a month. The only thing that...

I picked up some Hills d/d, venison and green pea flavor just 2 days ago. It doesn't look like she's eating it, but I'm easing her into the food change, so it may just take a bit of time. Everything I've done so far for her has come back negative, except for the higher globulin levels from the...

To anyone that may have a cat with this issue: How did your vet, or you, come to the conclusion that IBD was the issue? Also, did the Predistone (sp?) help? I've had some tests done on my cat for the past few weeks and we're having a really hard time pinpointing the issue. As stated in my other...

Update* Kora got her weeks worth of Metro and it didn't seem to do anything for her. However the past few days, she has acted pretty normal: Playful, affectionate, etc. However, her stool is still runny and she's still not eating much wet food.I bought some Science Diet: Sensitve Stomach dry...
