Thank YOU! And Courage thanks you!

We finally figured out what is causing Courage to breathe through his mouth. He ONLY does it when he purrs. One vet said she thought it was just a "behaviorial" thing, rather than something he has to do. But it could be something to do with the thyroid tumors. He has hyperthyroidism and takes...

I feed Courage between about eight and ten small meals a day. Each meal is about a quarter of a cup. This starts at four a.m. when I get up to feed the other cats, and goes on across the day. When I get up in the middle of the night, usually around twelve or two a.m., I feed him again. I am...

Hi, This is a picture of Courage the Cat (we called him that because when we got him, he was afraid of everything). We got him on December 5, 2017 from the animal shelter. He looked really sad, and we felt so sorry for him! He was really thin, and he was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. He...
