Stuck at home because of the virus, thought it would be good to give you a little update! My parents and my brother have become more hands on with Izzy. My dad playing with her more often and my mom being considerate with the amount of noise she makes. My brother has been doing a lot of the...

A few months ago my vet said we should switch to a higher quality food (he's a big advocate for feeding animals the absolute best). So we did some research and decided Tiki Cat has to be one of the top brands and bought some. Here's the issue: It is quite expensive for the amount they give you...

Thanks! Last time we tried pate, Izzy didn't like it but I'll definitely look at the brands that you recommended. Much appreciated!

Yesterday, we took our 2 year old cat, Izzy, to the vet because she has been throwing up once a week. He said it wasn't serious and told us it might just be hairballs and gave us Laxatone. He also said it might be because of some ingredients like dyes in the food we food her, Friskies wet food...

Thank you for your input. I have much to think about and I will definitely take your comment into consideration as well as all the others. For now, I will try to enjoy all the time I have left with Izzy before I leave for college. I'll also look into possible temporary new owners for her. Like I...

Yeah, convincing my parents and brother to be more engaged is easier said than done. I know it will be difficult but I do want to keep Izzy. And if my family will not change, then I have full intention of giving her up to another family.

The college I am going to does not accept animals to live in the dorm except if they are support animals. Izzy is also a very shy and nervous cat especially around loud noises and new people. I don't think I'll have time to take care of her at college, sadly.

Yeah, I hope to work with them with the few months that I am still home to fix their ways for Izzy. A chore list is a really good idea, thanks! The college I will go to is only an hour away so I will be able to get to visit home every now and then.

I know it is not possible to avoid injuries and sickness but she has been sent to the vet a number of times which makes me feel like I am not being a good pet owner. Izzy is our first pet and I knew it would come with difficulties and the number of times we have had to go to the vet for her has...

Sadly, we have no family that are able to take care of Izzy. I would like to be able to have Izzy after I am done with college because I do not want her out of my life forever, which I know will make finding a new home for her more difficult.

Do you think if I were to able to convince my parents and my brother to change their ways then we would be able to keep her? I plan on having a serious discussion with them and telling them how I really feel. I would rather give her to another family rather than a no-kill shelter because she...

I got my cat, Izzy, about two years ago and she has been such a great addition to my family. However, I do not feel as though I am fit enough to be a cat owner. She has gotten sick several times, one being eating a long piece of string and needing surgery, having a parasite from a tick, and now...

Ah, thank you so much. Yes I keep offering food and she seems interested but it might be the surgery slowing her down. And probably her loss of weight within these few days.

Sorry, I haven't been going on this site often. Izzy and I have been doing amazing. She's such a funny girl and loves to play on her cat tree. She has been leaving the room we kept her in and now enjoys being in our living room. Just a few days ago she went to the vet because she swallowed...

Here's a picture of Izzy about 2 weeks before she went to the vet.

On Thursday, I woke up and saw my cat, Izzy, looking very tired. I got up and went to get a can of food for her and thought she would go follow me like she does every morning. That time, she didn't which was really strange. She wasn't moving all she did was sleep. I thought maybe she had an...

Yeah sorry, I meant to say the base. Thank you, I wasn't quite sure what to do with the medicine.

My vet put cheristin on my cat's back earlier today and I'm just curious, do I have to wash it off? I looked into the medicine and I am keeping a close eye on my cat Izzy just in case.

Thank you all for the love and support. Izzy is doing so much better since yesterday. She has been eating by herself, going to the litter box, has been kind of playing with her toys, and I can get her out from under the bed by talking to her. We've decided to keep her and I can't wait to see how...

I just feel like I could be doing a lot of things better. I knew she was a really shy cat but I guess I wasn't prepared for it to be this strong. I do want to continue giving her a home and giving her love, but I just get scared that I'm doing something wrong and not providing the best home...
