    Feline Lymphoma?

    I do alot of research. Moki's tumor was 4 cm. As I said, this is his death sentence. Vet follow up on tues., jan. 9. to discuss biopsy results in depth. Choices are limited...prednisolone or chemo. -How long do cats live after chemotherapy? Between 50%-75% of cats with gastrointestinal...

    Feline Lymphoma?

    I am slowly accepting this horrible diagnosis, and prognosis. I am a senior, fixed income, and cannot afford chemo. The surgery cost etc. maxed out my credit card. With friends suggestions, I made bone broth and am giving him syringes of pedialite, with a trace of apple cider vinegar...

    What DRY food do you feed your cat(s), and their ages? I need something more affordable but good.

    I fed Moki Purina Beyond, Chicken & Egg for 3 years with little or no digestive problems. Indoor only cat. Then, a feral adopted me, outdoor only, and I bought Purina Selects. I realized Moki liked Selects, and now, after 2 months, he has developed this weird licking behavior when I touch his...

    Cat has button that makes him lick

    Recently I changed litter brands, due to economy. If I stroke his back, ever so lightly, he licks the air, wildly and turns his head to nip me. Completely new behavior. Should I go back to prior litter brand?

    Kitten jumping up onto counters

    I suggest putting aluminum foil on the counters. Before you place it down, pull it from box, and shake it, to simulate thunder. Most cats do not like thunder, and most do not like the feeling or sound of foil on their feet. Always worked with my furr-babies.
