The vet said we can do the blood panel and see if she's a candidate for the surgery. She did say that at her age, there is a high chance of death from anesthesia. Since the last pop, it hasn't grown back nearly as big as before. I know it's uncomfortable for her, but I don't really want to risk...

Yes that’s exactly what’s happening with it. The vet said my cats too old to remove the cyst. I don’t want her to go under general anesthesia because of her age, but is there another way to remove it without the anesthesia? I wasn’t sure if there was a possibility of a sedative and numbing the...

My 16 year old cat has a large walnut sized cyst hanging off her cheek. It leaks all the time and it’s kind of disgusting. She’s constantly scratching at it too so I think it bothers her. Especially when she shakes her head and it smacks her. The vet said all they can do is drain it. Has...

She's 16, so she is quite old. You would never know it though lol. She also has a lot of acne under her chin, so again, a dermatologic issue.

I found this bump on my cat, I am going to take her to the vets because of it, but does anyone have any idea of what it could be? I first noticed it a few weeks back, I don't think it has grown much, maybe a little. The color is gray because she is a calico and has gray skin in that area. I...

I believe this is the list you are all referring too, yes? https://www.felinecrf.org/canned_food_usa.htm I see some Weruva listed. My other cat, this one's sister, has IMD and LOVES weruva! Ever since she's started eating it she's gained weight and hasn't had any flare ups, so perhaps it would...

Yes that is what we did, a small portion of the new food and the rest the original food. She left the new food.

My vet said that my 15, almost 16 year old cat, is on the verge of Kidney disease. She gave us some food to try (prescription Royal Canine and Hills) and she HATES them. She refuses to eat them. She loves those fancy feast savory centers, so we tried to do a mix, but she ate the fancy feast and...

I have gotten three new cats over the past three years and they have all had to get acquainted with my two older cats, who were 14 when the latest kitten came. One is more of the scardy cat like yours seems to be, running away and afraid of everything, especially a new kitten! I have had three...

When she went to the vet for the last major flare up, it was a special GI specialist who treated her at an overnight clinic. They said to eat the Royal Canin select protein in venison, which has carrageenan as an ingredient. I got something else for her, called Natural Balance, that has pees...

I tried the Merrick turkey LID, and at first it seemed to be okay, but yesterday she vomited. I thought it was because she ate some nonfood items, as there was a string in her vomit, and try as I might, she always finds string somewhere to chew on! But today she had it again, and she vomited...

Thanks guys! We didn't do the biopsy on her as she's 15, and I didn't want to put her through a surgery. But she did get some gastro blood panel done, which showed she had digestive issues which lead the vet to believe it was more likely IBD vs lymphoma. As for flare ups, the 1st time she had...

Yes I think that is what it is for the dry food. My cat is very picky though, she likes something one day, will devour it, then the next day she hates it and won't touch it. So I have to try and find some variety for her. She got down to 6 lbs before she was diagnosed, so I don't want her to...

Is carrageenan listed as an ingredient? The Vet said that Royal Canin made a IBD sensitive dry food, rabbit flavored. And then is it not just an LID diet? It just needs to be carrageenan free foods?

he's been My ct who has been having some digestive issues was recently diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowl Disease. She's been eating Royal Canine Selected Protein in Rabbit and venison. My vet said she should be able to eat an LID limited ingredient diet, as those foods are good for cats with IBD...

Hi. She will be 15 in May. There are no other bumps on her. She does not go outside. It could be a bug bite. I noticed some small food ants in the house in one of my exotic animal terrariums. She doesn't seem to be bothered by it,but when I touched it, she moved her head away. Another family...

Today I noticed my cat has a bump, feels like a human pimple, on her cheek. It's in the skin, because I can move it from under the cheekbone to over the cheek bone, and you can not see it because it is not coming out from her hair. It was definitely not there over the weekend. I am thinking if...

Thank you! Though they said it could also be the thyroid, which is totally a different subject from this, but we have been testing her for it, and it was high, but not high enough, which lead to the decision that acidreflux was causing the issue of weight loss, after everything else was ruled...

I haven't been giving her any meds since Friday because she came down with a stomach bug, and has now gone down 6 more ounces! Gah. They vets said that a lot of animals have been having similar issues lately with changes in routines and stress from their owners, who are all stressed an anxious...

Thanks for that suggestion! I actually wrapped the pill in melted mozzarella from pizza and she took it... Of course that will be a one timething!
