    Should I Put My Aged Cat On Prednisolone?

    @LTS3, thank you for your reply. I do give my kitty B12 shots once a week for now as his B12 was very low. My mobile vet left a VM and said that although his white count is pretty high, it is slightly lower than the last time, and he said he talked to a pathologist about this, and the...

    Should I Put My Aged Cat On Prednisolone?

    @leo12, thank you for your replies and for wishing me good luck! Thank you also for sharing your experiences with your kitty with IBD. I think you're right. I don't want my kitty to be on the Prednisolone long term either. I think the liquid form would be best for my cat too! I will express...

    Should I Put My Aged Cat On Prednisolone?

    @jen, thank you so much for your replies. I'm glad to hear that the Pred helped your kitty with her appetite to the point where she would knock down the trash can to get to more food!

    Should I Put My Aged Cat On Prednisolone?

    @Megsnan Thank you for your reply. I think you're right that switching up the cat food too much can cause flare ups. I also think you're right that following my vet's advice would be my best bet. I'll express my concern though to him about not wanting him to be on it long term, but of...

    Should I Put My Aged Cat On Prednisolone?

    Seeking advice on a cat that has thickened intestinal walls. He most likely has IBD. He has thrown up a lot over the years, and my vet then gave me hypoallergenic foods. All of which my cat hated. I tried to slowly transition him to raw since my sister's cat eats raw, and when she runs low...

    Second Entry for 2nd cat. My cat Tyler, red and white bicolor DSH. A couple of the Siamese cats Ive met had obnoxious meows. He doesn't look anything like a Siamese cat, but he's got that obnoxious meow that reminds me of the Siamese cats I've met. Maybe he's got a tiny, tiny bit in him...

    Entry: I believe my cat resembles American Shorthair; some people have said she is an Egyptian Mau lookalike, but she's not that spotty. I would like to see if either one of these breed shows up in the genetic testing.

    I Has An Expresshun!

    Oops! @golondrina I hit the wrong button and it already replied, that's the word I was searching for, "pensive", I just couldn't think of the word to describe her expression. Thank you for that, and also for saying she's a lovely kitty. I think so too!
