This morning I had to say goodbye to my sweet little Clancy. He was 13 1/2. Over the course of his life he survived a bowel resection, pancreatitis, kidney problems, and a dog brother who liked to hump him. To say he was laid back in an understatement. I’m going to miss his big blue eyes, his...

Kind of a medical history here so bear with me. 1. At 6 years old Clancy had a bowel resection and shortly afterwards had pancreatitis. He recovered and was placed on dry vet food (Royal Canin GI). 2. He did well for about 5 years but then began vomiting up that food several times a week. He...

Clancy had a few weeks of treatment for pancreatitis. Almost all the meds were administered via syringe, except a small flavoured appetite stimulant, and later, prednisone also in pill form. We’re almost done with his meds and he appears totally back to normal (eating well, etc). The last week...

I was wondering if anyone has pet insurance and what their experiences were. It’s too late for my present menagerie (one kitty and one dog) but for future furkids I was wondering. I tend to think it’s kind of a rip-off. For example, a few companies cap out around 5 grand per condition per...

I’ve got some duplicate photos in my media gallery, but can’t delete them. I’ve got one photo which gives me the option (top left corner box which, gives delete option) but none of the other photos have. Does anyone have a suggestion?

...for everyone’s help with my little Clancy. While I’m an experienced dog owner, Clancy is my first cat and it’s been a learning curve, let me tell you. Between the pred and the appetite stimulant, he continues to eat his baby food and munches on his kibble. I really hope pred works for him...

Hi everyone; I’ll try to give you the coles notes version, since this is loooong. ;) I have a 7 year old ragdoll boy who was in perfect health until November of last year (2016). He got suddenly ill, vomiting, and long story short he ended up needing surgery and a bowel resection. The...
