    Cat Refusal to eat

    I will def keep that in mind. Ultrasounds $450 plus the vet fee so it will be the last option. But....she is eating very well again plus acting very normal. So it will be interesting to see her appetite and activity levels once meds all stop 🤞

    Cat Refusal to eat

    Yes its hot but not unbearable. So she did regurgiatate right after l eating when l saw her. Problem is l was finding throw up all over house for 2 days but did not know what cat was doing it. At first it was a ton of food. Then just bile. Finally caught her drinking water then proceeded to...

    Cat Refusal to eat

    They did this for my last cat many years ago. It was very hard on both of us. I missed several times and even stabbed myself w the needle. I would be willing if it meant saving her life of course. I syringe 10 ml of water every 2 hrs (besides middle night). It stresses her out though. So she...

    Cat Refusal to eat

    Thanks that makes me feel better. Were your cats drinking or dehydrated? That seems to be a bigger issue than losing weight. I have tried everything! She nibbles on some dry or hard treats but not much. She is my cat who would eat all day if u let her. Just not sure whats going on.

    Cat Refusal to eat

    Her name is Mylee. Yes, Pancreatic snap test was negative. My main concern is lack of hydration. I put a call into vet to send records to my local vet and l asked them if l could get the meds for appetite. Waiting on call back.

    Cat Refusal to eat

    Ok this scares me now. I did look up symptoms. She does not have yellowing in her eyes or ears and no vomiting anymore. But l am def gonna bring this up to vet. She acts like she wants to eat. Paces the bowls and sniffs then walks away. She also is acting semi normal. Just a little sluggish but...

    Cat Refusal to eat

    I agree l think the new food made her ill and now its like she cant get it out of her head. Bc the other cat vomited once too when l gave it to him. She was on fancy feast then l switched her months ago to earthborne hollistic wet pouches bc l wanted to put them on grain free and a healthier...

    Cat Refusal to eat

    Hello, everyone. I'm back again for some advice. A few days ago, my cat, she is 7 years old, began to vomit. She was still eating but was thrown up every time she would eat or drink. I finally took her to the vet, and they did a full blood work up on her, and everything appeared to be normal...

    My cat "won" the jackpot of illnesses

I had to go to petsmart today which l dreaded going as thry always gave the adoption center. I walked in and saw a cat who looked so much like her (he was a boy though).....l had to walk...

    My cat "won" the jackpot of illnesses

    So Very nice your vet you do that. Vet care is so expensive. I paid out more money in one year in vet bills then l have paid out probably in a lifetime of my own medical!! I was fortunate to raise $600 from friends and family l raffled off 2 gift baskets of goodies. I hope to not have to...

My other cat this past Sept got "sick" we ran so many test (blood work several times, ultrasound, xrays, blood again). He wasnt eating (and...

    15 Month Battle Comes To An End

    I agree sometimes the hardest decisions in life are the most painful. We cannot control situations. Just like people get rare diseases or babies die from cancer sometimes it is what it is. I feel blessed Chloe gave me more time. I also am happy l followed my heart and gave her some time. Had l...

    15 Month Battle Comes To An End

    Wow. 16 though is a great life. I will be honest if Chloe was over age 12 l may have not even considered surgery but she was only 9.5 years old and that is so young for a cat. My other cat died in 2005 of sarcoma. I did notice a lump but l was young and let it go. Months went by and it got...

    My cat "won" the jackpot of illnesses

    I had to go to a specialist and was quoted $5,000. I did not have that kind of money. I was devastated. I cried all the way home. Then someone in my kickboxing class mentioned a vet in NJ (l am in PA) that l should call and see. The doctor who owns the practice had me send over all her records...
