I have lost 2 cat babies within the last year. Both dreams were related to their deaths. I wonder if they are signs from my babies or maybe related to the guilt I feel about losing them? In one dream, my cat Samba was drinking water but was already dead... In real life, she was euthanized at...

I haven't felt my Sambinha...but afraid of these signs...I live alone so I think it might make me feel scared...but regardless...I wish I had a sign that let me know my Sambinha was alright. I miss her soo much!

Thank you @di and bob !!! I wonder if I exacerbated her condition/illness by taking her to the vet so many times?? Do you think this caused her stress which lowered her defenses making her iller, more quickly...I still feel horrible :( about this and allowing all these vets to poke and prod...

Thank you so much @Maria Bayote ! The comment about the couch made me laugh. Samba always kicked Salsa off the couch...she claimed it as her own. She was funny that way...and possibly a bit of a bully...but I loved her dearly. I hope they do feel that I gave them a good life...sometimes I...

Thank you @will2002 Grateful for the kind cat lovers who have offered their support here...Thank you!!! :rbheart::rbheart::rbheart:

Thank you @Purr-fect! Losing two (ALL) of my babies within 8 months is rough...It feels surreal to have an empty home without any purring, stretching, sleeping babies around...One day at a time...Thank @Purr-fect :redheartpump:

@Mamanyt1953 Your message made me cry. :( It was so beautifully written and so poetic. I will cherish it and your kind words.:redheartpump:..I want to imagine her happy and pain-free...Imagining her with her sister, Salsa, dancing, running, playing...and waiting for my return, brings me...

Thank you so much for these kind words di and bob! They were really comforting. I don't think anyone understands this pain except for pet lovers. Samba and Salsa are family and they were like daughters to me. Thank you for saying these words about guilt and regret...i hope I didn't make her...

My sweet Samba was one of two siblings from the same litter I had adopted over 16 years ago. I had two of the sweetest angels I could have ever been blessed with, we named them Salsa and Samba. Samba was the tougher one of the two...she made it clear she was the "Top cat" at home...always...

I am so sorry for your loss. Hannah was a beauty. I lost my Samba on the 20th...so hard to see them decline and in pain...this was the hardest thing... May Hannah rest in peace....<3

Dear friends, With a deep and heavy heart, I tell you that My dear sweet angel Samba was put to rest Saturday morning....a vet performed an at-home emergency euthanasia She hadn't eaten or drank anything at all in the 3-4 days prior to her death and the lack of nutrients and food exacerbated...

Thank you Daftcat75!!! Please tell me there is a happy ending with Krista. What happened to her after the feeding tube and hospitalization? How long was she on the feeding tube? How do you think she felt with it on? Did she recover and extend her life? How old was she when it was placed...

Thanks so much Daftcat75 and freinds!!!!! My vet is closed on Sundays and I wonder if I should take her in for a feeding tube or even an IV put in her. She hasn't eaten anything yesterday except for a few temptation treats. She had 5 soft stools/diarrhea yesterday and hasn't had a lot of water...

Thanks Daftcat75! That does sound stressful. Could a cat with a possible heart condition tolerate and heal with a feeding tube? I wonder why my vet never recommended this before? Right now I have been giving her the transdermal appetite stimulant and I just started with subQ fluids at...

how do i get a feeding tube? Is that only offered in the E.R.? She has not eaten today...

She has been laying around but with her eyes wide open...not sleeping...what could this mean?

Thanks, everyone. Has anyone tried the anti-nausea med called Ondansetron? My vet prescribed this for Samba as she has been vomiting for the past 4 days in a row. It seems like a large dose though, .5 mL and she hasn't wanted to eat since I started giving her this medication. Don't know if...

Hi daftcat75, Oh no!!! I did ask about pancreatitis but I don't remember what the vet said...my mind was going in different directions at the time. I wrote it down along with my other concerns.... I remember she mentioned that she had the ultrasound done and that they didn't see anything that...

Thank you for your wishes Fiona's mom and all your tips and I can't THANK YOU enough for all suggestions daftcat75!! You are awesome!!! Samba's breathing is looking a little more rapid after the meds today (steroids) hoping it settles...please keep us in your thoughts... Samba's mom

Hello cat parent friends, An Update on my baby Samba: She was in pain all weekend (actually probably has been for much longer). She just got the Fentanyl patch today. Also, received today: * Subcutaneous fluids (as she hasn't eaten in 1.5 days, only had water but still a bit dehydrated) *B12...
