My vet pushed this water additive after a teeth cleaning. It was expensive, and with my situation having 14 cats, using the additive is actually a waste. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. If you have only one cat, maybe it would be useful, but, like you - I'm skeptical about using additives...

sounds like your issues are not the number of litter boxes, more like where they might be located :) - I currently have 14 - all inside - and 6 litter boxes. My house is large enough to distribute the boxes in different rooms - so if one cat is having an issue with another he/she has other...

"sick" - define, please :)

Do you have a compound pharmacy near you? They can compound a liquid, with a flavor-I chose chicken-You are given a syringe to fill the liquid dose, then put the syringe into their mouth -in their mouth as close to the back of the throat as possible, under the tongue-this is a way of delivering...

Just skimming here 1) I get a liquid form of methimazole from our COMPOUND PHARMACY - very simple to administer 2) personally I won’t be putting my 15 year old under the stress of the Iodine treatment-they are in isolation for a number of days until the meds are out of the system-stressful being...

Thank you for sharing this information! Knowing your experience helps me keep a balance in determining what I should do. I’m keeping pics and if I detect it seems to be increasing in size, then I’ll have to re-evaluate my medical options-I am emphatically convinced stress plays an important...

This week a spot arrived on one of my cat’s nose. Interesting thread here-will research acne, thanks for the idea as I’m always thinking the worse first, hoping I’m over-reacting. Sure-I will take to the vet if I must, but it would be a stressful venture with chances of causing other physical...

First- check out chewy.com- they have faster shipping than Petco I think (?) I get their autoship and get a discount. You’ll need the vet prescription to verify most likely—but It’s a one time only requirement unless they want to get an updated prescription later Second - if it were me, I’d...

Do you have someone that is a veteran at trapping cats that can do this for you? Sometimes an animal shelter will provide this help. Floor has packing paper and the top has a cover that falls loosely around the sides. This is my last cat I plan to trap-Sunnee (Sunny)-he’s now inside.

I read your thread-wow! I can’t imagine all that you’ve been going through! I was trying to find information from a reliable resource I had used a long time ago but couldn’t remember the link- but I’ve Re-found it and passing it along- and - for me & KiKi maybe just in the nick of time before...

Thanks! Will be following! :D

Antonio65: Well you fully understand my $$ issue, by the time you nickle and dime this without a remedy it’s better just to do the one time cost and have a satisfactory solution. I’ll certainly go to your thread while I consider how I’m going to pay for this:). Thanks so much!

Ok, now I’m miffed! The vet, obviously didn’t tell me it was a tumor! Because I didn’t know the right questions to ask (he called to tell me the test results) I really made an uninformed treatment decision. Because he said we’ll recheck (thyroid blood tests) in 2or 3 weeks I (wrongly) took it in...

Another question-is this condition because of a thyroid tumor?
