Thanks for replying, Willowy. Baboo did not seem timid when we visited. He was in a cage by himself and when we let him out he was checking everything out. The kitten was such a sweetie. If we could have three cats in our apartment we probably would, but we're allowed two pets. We don't know...

We lost one year old Mia to FIP two months ago. five months before that, we lost fifteen year old Princess to complications from HCM and hyperthyroid/liver disease. Needless to say it’s been rough for us, but we are slowly healing and for us that includes adopting a new family member. Currently...

Thank you. Unfortunately she was a year old but we adopted her at 8 months. So she had been in shelters before us. We only got to have her for the last 4 months of her life. So devastated.

We lost our kitty Princess in November of 2018 due to complications from multiple concurrent diseases, all of which we tried to treat but just got worse. A month after her passing, we felt ready enough to open our hearts to a new cat. Mia found us at the rescue. While we were looking at and...

Hi Furballsmom :) we haven't been able to contain her, if we had a baby gate we could keep her in the kitchen but our kitchen is sooo small it seems cruel to do so. We're basically waiting for her outside the box with wet paper towels and cleaning up each time. Fancy feast for diarrhea...

Hi all, We adopted Mia on 12/5. She is 8 months old. Her stools were normal for the first 2 weeks or so, but have degenerated gradually into full-on severe diarrhea, which has been really bad in the past week. On 12/22 (Sat) we visited the vet for a stool sample and the results came back today...

Update: It's been a few days and things are going great! We only kept them separate the first night, really. They've been sleeping on the bed together, eating meals together, playing together, and using the same litter box. There was some hissing from Max at first, but it has greatly diminished...

Hi Cat Friends. On 11.11 we lost our dear Princess. We have been looking to incorporate another family member, and we wound up falling in love over the weekend at a local cat rescue with Mia, a black & white tuxedo cat about 8 months old, rescued from a kill shelter in NJ. She is an absolute...

Thanks for the input. One thing I should add is that her paperwork said she was caught with a Havahart trap. We wonder if she was somewhat neglected, or an "indoor feral?" If that's a thing. We are so torn bc she seems so sweet. The SPCA front desk lady said no one has shown any interest in...

Hi cat friends, It's been just over a week since we lost our P, and already (I know...too soon probably) my husband and I are thinking about adopting another cat. We have wanted another for a long time, but with P's health problems and being a senior lady, we knew it had to wait. Our current...

Oh, this post hurts my heart and I loved reading about Ashton so very much. I am heartbroken right along with you. No matter how "long" our time with our feline companions, it never seems long enough. I can completely understand. Do not beat yourself up or blame yourself for what happened...

Di and Bob - I have read your reply over & over again and your words are more comforting than you could possibly know. It has been so hard for my husband and me. He was the primary caretaker, even though Princess was "my cat" for 9 years before we *both* met our Prince Charming. He has been...

I am so sorry about your darling Feisty. I think the more we talk about our departed feline friends (to those who care) the closer we can get to healing our hearts. Love and hugs to you. :angelcat:

So sorry to hear about Pepper. Our kitty Princess had HCM diagnosed in Feb/Mar and we just lost her on 11/11. She also had hyperthyroid and liver/pancreas issues--just a whole mess. We treated her since Mar with Enalapril and Enoxaparin sodium injections. She had to have a lot of vet care (esp...

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Midnight. We lost our dear Princess on Sunday night and it still feels so fresh. How can we ever feel ready to say goodbye? One thing should provide comfort to both of us: we were there till the end. Death can be so ugly and scary, but when we are with...
