Hi Dr Jean, and thanks for answering our questions. I have a kitty named Rambo who has been diagnosed with an EGC. He is currently on immunosuppressors but I'm looking to try and treat him in a more holistic way. I worry about the effect of long-term medication use as he is only 3 years old...

Hi everyone!! It's been a very long time since I've been on here, but things have been crazy (though i've missed this site tons!). Some of you might remember me...and my kitty Rambo (search rambo and sick and you'll find the whole story), who thanks to the people and knowledge on this site...

I have a 5 hour old kitten that won't latch on to mom. Mom was an emergency c-section, with 2 of the three kittens dead. Mom seems to be still quiet tired and dopey. This little one has taken KMR from a syringe, but won't latch on and hasn't pooped. The kitten is very restless. Any advice...

At least for awhile. Today is my last day at work before I head back to school (yikes) on September 4th. I have no internet at home, and a school schedule that looks like it won't leave me enough time to breathe...let only post. I just wanted to thank you all for your amazing advice...

Just had to share the good news on Rambo's health. For those of you who don't know, Rambo was afflicted with a mysterious illness starting about a year ago (threads from that time here and here). Thanks to the advice and knowledge of the wonderful people on this thread, Rambo was tenatively...

This is a tribute to the sweet little orange kitty who was hit by a car and killed near my house. He belonged to my neighbour, and when i questionned letting him be an outdoor cat, I got nowhere. Now he's gone, and he was only 6 or so months old. I can only hope and pray that your sister will...

My dad has been working at my house replacing my shower (previous home owners stuck the plumbing together with glue and tape...but don't get me started on that) and was making oodles of noise. So i took the monkeys outside for a little bird watching. I run back inside the house for a few...

I realized that I hadn't shared with you guys the huge thing thats about to happen to my life. I'm halfway between exhilirated and petrified. Background: i am currently working for the government in natural resources after getting my degree. I've been here for just over 4 years, and I've...

Here's a little bit of Rambo for you!!! Sorry...you can't have him though...he's all mine!!! Some of you might remember Rambo being ill for months and months, but now thanks to the low dose of steroid the disease seems to be in check and he's my happy, cuddly little man (11lbs)!! So I thought...

This in my opinion needs a cuteness warning! Lucky got her lion cut done this weekend and she makes me giggle every time I see her. Here's a few pics of her playing in the backyard when we got home from the groomer. Look at those furry little boots!! AND THAT TAIL!!! Staring down the...

Riley was a 7 year old Neopolitan Mastiff who passed away suddenly last week. He originally belonged to my friend, but when her neighbours complained about being afraid of Riley, he was given to some of her close friends who owned a 100 acre farm. Riley was a gentle giant with a heart as big...

Hey everyone, just realized I hadn't provided an update on Rambo's situation. Here's a link to part of his saga for those of your who weren't around. Rambo has now been on the prednisone on a low dose for a few weeks (1/2 pill every 3 days) and he is doing absolutely fantastic. I've suddenly...

The last few days Rambo has been sleeping a bit more then usual, but still playing, eating and cuddling. I woke up to find Rambo's eye swollen up and leaking. This brings back bad memories. (to summarize some of the history: starting in the summer Rambo's eye swelled up, went to the vet and...

Finally I have some happy news to share. Recap: I rescued a 7 year old male kitty by the name of MacGillicuddy from the rescue I volunteer at. I got him to give to my grandmother for companionship. Cuddy wasn't good with other kitties, but loved 24/7 attention from people. Well I just got...

I know we've talked about kitties dreaming....but do you guys think they can have nightmares. Here's what happened: Last night Lucky was sleeping in her soft carrier (she sleeps in there all the time) and I was watching some TV on the couch just around the corner. About an hour after she...

Okay...that might be a little melodramatic of a title. But I feel terrible. It's now been about 55 hours since I last slept. Things have been stressful lately and after the break-up with the B/F last weekend I've been struggling to sleep. Anyone have some remedies/advice to get me through...

This is McGillicuddy (he came with the name)! He's going to be my grandmother's companion. He is approximately 7 years old and has been in foster care for awhile. I'm holding on to him this week while I get him groomed and pick up all the supplies for my grandma's house. Sorry there's only...
