I have a Manx - Macie - who I adopted along with a Tortie in December 2020. Macie is pretty small (and fast LOL), doesn't like to be picked up, but is just about the sweetest girl I've had. When I got her, she had been eating dry food only; I have kept her on the dry, but have been also...

Ok, so I adopted two cats in December. My black Manx - Macie - has a difficult history, coming from a hoarding situation. When the rescue got her, she had very little fur and was severely malnourished. She also had fleas and staph dermatitis. They brought her in, took care of everything, and...

I lost both of my cats this year and just adopted a new one - she is a beautiful 5yo black, green-eyed mix (DSH and Manx). Her foster said she was very skittish and timid at first, but after a while (he said it took a couple of weeks), she adjusts and always wants to be near. She *is* very...

I will be getting two new cats by the end of the month - rescues - and both have been eating only dry food. One is eating Blue (salmon), the other is on Meow Mix. I have always fed both dry and wet and want to eventually get these girls on a healthy food. I'm slogging through all of the research...

I lost both of my girls this year, and friends have been sending me pictures of all sorts of kitties needing homes. I'd been looking online and have found a couple I might be interested in, but haven't made up my mind yet and probably can't get them for another month or so anyway. Someone I...

I lost both of my cats this year, and I am preparing to adopt two new ones. I am hoping to get a bonded pair, but I may need to get two cats who do not know each other. I successfully introduced my younger cat to my older cat a number of years ago, but have never introduced two brand new cats...

'rissa died in June and Silk on Saturday. I had to help both transition; they had gotten to the point where they were so weak they couldn't walk. (Silk is the tortie). I can't say too much more right now, 'cause it is so painful to talk about. But thanks for hearing me and being here.

I've lost two cats this year, one on Saturday. 'rissa - the older one - died in June from what we think was nasal lymphoma. Silk had both small and large cell lymphoma and was on chemo for a year. I'm thinking about getting cats sometime in the future and am trying to budget for insurance and...

I have posted here before about my 11-year-old who has lymphoma. Silk is still around and doing pretty well. It's been 11 months since her diagnosis and I honestly didn't think she'd still be with us. My other, older cat has always been really healthy until a few months ago. The vet thinks...

Hi All! I have an almost-17yo tabby who has been dealing with multiple respiratory/sinus issues for a year or more. We've tried multiple things - antibiotics, pred, and stuff I can do at home like exposing her to the steam from a shower - and all have helped to a degree. She has had swelling...

I initially came here because my 10 y/o has lymphoma. In the last several months, though, my other girl, who is almost 17, has been getting pretty bad upper respiratory (or maybe sinus) infections that are not responsive to antibiotics. She sneezes (like, all over the place) and, while her...

Silk was diagnosed with lymphoma mid-late July and has been going through chemo. Her last med was Adriamycin. She continues to have diarrhea, although right now it's not as bad as it has been. It was controlled on Cytoxan, but she got pneumonia and after the last chemo, it was back to...

My beautiful girl, Silk - 10 years old - was just diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. I am heartbroken. Glad, finally, that we figured out why she's been so sick, but so sad when I look forward to the coming year. Her internist called me today to explain and offer options. Treatment...

Hi all! I'm new here and have 2 beautiful girls, Silk (tortie) and 'rissa (tabby). 'rissa is 16 and Silk, who was recently diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is 10. Looking forward to engaging with folks here! Diane
