Hello dear friends, I'm still dealing with my male baby vomiting way too much. I recently started him on all sensitive stomach foods. He is currently eating Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach Dry and Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach Duck Wet food. The vomiting continues but he has only been on this food...

Hello All, I've been searching the forum on this topic before posting and have read up on it quite a bit. I adopted a kitty about 2 months ago and since I've had him he's been having a problem with regurgitating his food. When I first brought him home it was really bad, about 2 times every...

I adopted a new cat a little over 2 months ago. I did everything by the book as far as proper introductions but so far my resident cat still will not accept the new cat (also female). After the "first" introduction they seemed okay (or so I thought), then one day the new cat attacked my...

Hello Dear cat friends, this is my first time posting to the Behavior Forum as I've never encountered any behavior issues with my kitties until now. I adopted a cat about a month ago and already had one resident cat at home. I went thru the entire introduction process by the book, or so I...

Hello Dear Cat Lovers, It's been a long while since I've been on the site. I've been struggling with an issue I'm having with my Persian Sophia and am getting mixed reviews from different vets. She had eye surgery a month ago for an ulcer that wasn't healing. She had what is called a Grid...

Hello Dear Cat Lovers, I'm having a problem with my baby not eating.  Some background info -   he is a persian, 14 years old.  He started back in mid October not feeling well, keeping to himself, and not eating.  We went to the vet and it was determined that he had a very loose canine on his...

We've been dealing with some issues this week, back and forth to vet, but I recently noticed I don't think Simba can see at all.  He had a tooth extracted a few days ago and is also on meds for corneal ulcers in both eyes.  He is not eating at all because he can't find his food and I don't think...

Hello All, I'm looking for some info on how to fatten up my baby boy.  He is dealing with several issues right now and is currently not eating.  We were at the vet this week and he has an URI, ulcers in both eyes, and had to have a tooth extracted last night.  I understand him not eating right...

Hello Dear Friends, I am thinking about adopting a Persian cat from the Humane Society. The poor little thing has a cauliflower ear. Iâ€8482m trying to learn more about this condition. I understand it is the result of a hematoma that was left untreated. They have told me that the ear will...

Well... this is a new one for me. My male persian has always had chronic ear problems with yeast, infections, etc... We've been dealing with it for years and after a few days on the meds it always clears up. This time around, there seems to be a strange rattling noise coming from his ear...

Hello All - itâ€8482s been a very long time since Iâ€8482ve been on the board. All my babies are currently healthy, with the exception of Ringworm! AGAIN! I have battled this off and on for the entire 8 years I have had my 2 persians. The past 18 months have been ringworm free and now it is...

Does anybody have experience with URI's. My baby boy has had an URI for the past week. He just started on Zenequin yesterday. I'm wondering how long before he starts to improve. The poor little thing is so congested. I am guessing 48-72 hours before he gets some relief???

Hello my fur friends... It's been a long time since I posted on the board, but am always lerking. My problem child Simba has been relatively healthy the past few months and we have been enjoying the break. However, last night I noticed that when he tries to walk or jump his hind leg/legs give...

I notice when reading thru the posts that it is often suggested that kitty be taken to a Veterinary University. What's the difference between going there and a regular vet? Do they take appts.? Do you need a referral? I've seen this mentioned alot and was just wondering how one would go...

Can anybody offer any advice/tips on how to boost the immune system. My Simba struggles with a poor immune system. I started him on Lysine a few months ago, but was just wondering if there was anything else I could do for him.

Has anybody ever heard of this fungus? I got Simba's results back yesterday after a month at the lab, and the diagnosis was Aspergillus Fungus. My vet switched the anti-fungal he was on from Intraconazole to Ketoconazole. He was on the Intraconazole for a month and now has to take the...

Has anyone every had these cultures done on their kitty? I am still trying to get to the bottom of what is causing Simba's ear problems. I was told he has a fungal infection inside his ear. These 2 cultures were done 3 weeks ago and I still have not heard back on any results. Does this seem...

Simba's ear still has not healed from his biopsy surgery over a month ago. I realize the ear is a sensitive area, but shouldn't it be healed by now? It drys up and scabs over, then once the scab falls off it is back to raw tissue again and the cycle repeats. Poor little guy has been wearing...

My Simba hasn't been acting right for a long time and I'm so frustrated as I try to help him and figure out what is wrong. He is very restless most of the night and will actually stand/sit on my back or side while I am sleeping; and not in what seems to be a comfortable position. In addition...

I had posted earlier about Simba's condition with his ear. My vet had originally thought it was a cancerous tumor, but I found out this weekend he has what is called a "Fungal Granuloma". Has anybody ever heard of this? I'm the queen of online research, but am having trouble finding much...
