    Looking for some advise/help with my little buddy....

    I woke up 5:30am this morning and went straight to his box and blanket were he was resting and he greeted me with a low meow. My heart is in absolute pieces! I wanted to prolong it but seeing his health degrade so quickly and struggling to breathe......I knew I had to do it. I didn't want him to...

    Looking for some advise/help with my little buddy....

    My little buddy Toby crossed the rainbow bridge today. I wanted to thank you all for your shared kindness and compassion. Toby helped me so much when my mother passed during the covid pandemic.

    Looking for some advise/help with my little buddy....

    I tried to bring him to his regular vet for blood work and xray but they couldn't take him because they didn't have the vets there today. I ended up going back to the ER vet and when I got there, they told me that the lab results came back from Monday and that it was indeed cancer. They asked me...

    BTW, I started giving him the Methimazole again. Today is day 3. He seems a little better but only comes out of hiding when he's hungry. I hope it's a little help to his discomfort!

    She said that the masses were around his lungs which explain the fluid build up. I'm hoping now that it's the HyperT and not cancer. For the Methimazole, it states 5 mg/ml. Sorry for the quick response, I need to get ready for work now. Thank you Ellen for your help and concern!

    Looking for some advise/help with my little buddy....

    The ER doctor did say something about it possibly being heart related but she thinks that it's most likely some form of cancer because of the masses (tumors) that they saw. If it is HCM like you said, could he get better with medication? The Methimazole is liquid and Im suppose to administer 0.5...

    Looking for some advise/help with my little buddy....

    Hi everyone! I've had my buddy Toby for 17 years now. This past Saturday, I noticed he was lying down in front of my entry door which he never really does. This continued Sunday and on Monday, I decided to take him to the emergency vet. Last time I had taken him to the vet was last year in...

    How To Deal With Pet Allergy?

    I would mind actually. What I do know is that any sleep med won't allow restorative deep REM sleep which is what we all need for a good night's rest and the cause of the foggy headedness.

    How To Deal With Pet Allergy?

    I've been thinking about that as well but I don't want to jump the gun until I know for certain from my doctor if I'm truly allergic to my cats or something! My co-worker said it might even be seasonal allergies I'm experiencing but these symptoms only happen at night when I'm sleeping.

    How To Deal With Pet Allergy?

    BTW, I took a Benadryl Wednesday night that my co-worker gave me and it DEF helped me sleep straight through the night! I needed that so bad!! I also read online that taking Benadryl as a sleep aid is NOT GOOD so there goes that!
