    Mica won't eat, possible IBD or cancer

    Hi, Mica is nearly 16 and my vet has been keeping an eye on her kidney function. It is within the normal range at the moment though (she is having subq fluids which I think may help) and so the vet does not think this is causing her inappetance. The vet suspects IBD and has started her on pred...

    Metacam and renal failure

    Has anyone had experience of Metacam causing renal failure? My cat started on Metacam just over a week ago for arthiritis and had been doing a little better with her pain. Only reason I considered Metacam was because we were approaching euthanasia. Today she seems like she just does not feel...
