Thank you all for your thoughts and suggestions and caring. I will check out the website that was suggested.
I have one or two friends who understand that "pets" are not just "pets". However, they been so busy recently with finishing Voch Tech School (at age 49!) and moving to a newly bought...
Forgive me if this is the wrong place to put this. I did put it in the thread where I talked about all this BEFORE having to let Two Paws go-- however, I was not sure this update would be seen, since it was not "out front".
Is there a thread/forum for those who had to say "Good-bye" to their...
My TwoPaws is gone. I don't recall the exact date- about 4 weeks ago. I had taken TwoPaws to the Vet three times in two weeks. The last day I had the feeling I would not be bringing her home.
I was right. I went back to get her- she stayed for X-rays. I could see without the Vet telling me...
TwoPaws won't eat anything except dry food. My Vet wanted to try some wet food, tuna or ANYTHING to get her eating more. She has not used the litterbox, except to urinate a small amount 2 times since Thursday.
Cattee, I do have TwoPaws in a room (my bedroom) alone with a litterbox. I am glad...
I posted to another thread http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...3?threadid=989
about a similiar problem. I won't go into it all here. I do want to add that my cat is on 2cc's of Lactolose. Also taking the Hill's Feline c/d-s food. She has been struggling with constipation since November...
Hi!
My soon to be 7 year old has the same problem. In November I took her to an animal ER, an hour trip on a Sunday afternoon. She (TwoPaws) was X-rayed and found to be extrememly full of feces. They sedated her and cleaned her out.
Last week, rather March 28 TwoPaws kept me up 4am on with...
Montel- the 2nd cat I took to the Humane Society passed the leukemia test, has an appointment to be neutered and then will be put up for adoption! I am glad I was able to rescue him from the horrible weather and situation he was in. Though, I am terribly sad that the other one (almost...
Hi All,
It has been some time since I have asked for advice. All was helpful.
The past two weeks I have spent time at the local Humane Shelter (which is a no-kill facility, except for terminal illnesses or untrainable/uncontrollable, very bad behavior, i.e. biting)
They rented me a "Have A...
I wrote about my cats not getting along in the thread, "New Fighting Among Old Buddies". Well, I believe I now know why. It's been three weeks with no change.
I've discovered a cat that is hanging around outside. Five o'clock this morning my Mother was woken by horrible noises. It was the...
My Misty waits until someone goes in the bathroom, if its me she joins me. Someone else, she waits. However, as soon as she hears the toilet flush she is right in there and immediately dives for a drink!
She also asks me to open the tub door so that she can check out the faucet in there for...
Thank you for your idea. I will give it some thought and investigate. It could be part of the reason-- however, I've been here for almost a year and this is a new thing. So, I am not sure- could it take that long to develop?
I am going to call the Humane Society Behavorist later, just to get...
Thank you for your ideas. I will try your idea Laura of holding one of them and petting, feeding, etc... in front of each of them. I have some, but not a whole lot in the presence of the other since it is difficult to keep Misty in the same room as TwoPaws. Perhaps I need to bring Misty...
I thought I would write and let you know what is happening. Well, I talked with the vet, told him that after another week I don't believe it is a "territorial issue". He says the hormone shots won't help, then. Therefore, he has no idea what to do, no experience in this area. Not many vets...
Hi!
Well, last night went by without any fights, not even a snarl. However, they stayed away from each other. This morning Misty did do some growling and snarling, but stayed in her space. TwoPaws did not go after her, yeah! She was a bit hesitant to stay in the same room, but did for a few...
Sandie,
You have eleven cats! You must really like them. I am more of a dog person. However, my lifestyle did not allow me a dog. I got Misty first, felt guilty leaving her alone so got TwoPaws for her! Now I have grown to absolutely love cats! It only took a few days- they are so adorable...
