Well, he's pooping so little that it's more like slimy liquid than poop. We took him yesterday to a different vet and they ran all kinds of tests and did x-rays. They did a blood test, a thyroid test, kidney function test, took x-rays and they tried to do a urinalysis but there was no urine to...
Hi!
I did tell them that, but they said they only take a certain number of people in a day, and apparently I came in right after a lady who was there to get her dog's nails trimmed so that was the cut off point. At that point I was like yeah, time to look elsewhere. So fortunately I got him...
So our kitty Apollo has been having some problems, mostly with pooping outside of the box but also peeing. We took him to the vet about a month ago who thought it was likely behavioral (they did not do any kind of tests by the way), so we got new litter boxes (with a lid), some cat attractant...
So we have three cats, all males, and all raised together so they get along great. But one of them has, for the last three or four weeks, been pooping on the floor. There's nothing abnormal about the poop and he eats well so I don't think he's having digestive issues. Each cat has his own...
A couple of weeks ago, we lost a kitty we'd had for only 3 years to sudden kidney failure. Now, one of our other cats has suddenly started peeing in weird places. For example, my husband and I were in the kitchen making food, and he just walks in and proceeds to pee in the middle of the floor...
I absolutely LOVE the stroller pic! That is the sweetest and most adorable thing I've ever seen! Rest in Peace beautiful Gary. I'm sure the angels are pushing him around in a stroller now :)
Ohh how very sad. These people are terrible. I hope the pain they've inflicted comes back upon them a hundredfold. Animals like your beautiful kitties are meant to be loved and treasured, and I'm so sorry that they had to go through such pain. Thank you for giving their lives a ray of sunshine <3
Bless you during this difficult time and know that sweet Omelette (I love her name!) is smiling on you and thanking you for the short but amazing time you all had together! I lost my Storm a little over a week ago too, and I still find myself walking into the kitchen, singing to him. I think...
Yes! A/D was the stuff they had us give Thor. I don't know why I thought it was Science Diet. A/D is like kitty crack. I don't know if they put mice guts in it or what but cats find it irresistible. I'm so glad your baby is on the mend!

When our big kitty Thor (in my profile photo) was very sick with liver disease, Dr. Dascoli did everything in her power to help him. We all worked tirelessly, but in the end, he just stopped eating. I think his poor body was...
Oh thank you! That was a very helpful article. I have been trying to keep a regular routine for them, but maybe giving just a couple more treats (I dont know what you're talking about, they're so not spoiled!) I also plugged in some of those Feliway comfort zone things in the areas that the...
Awww thank you guys so much! The vet did say that there were some little crystals in his urine and his pH level was high. I wish I would have known it was so serious. I would have done anything and everything to save him. I had no idea something so dangerous could happen so fast!
What is the...
Hi! I lost my beautiful kitty Thor (my profile photo) to hepatic lipidosis. We had to feed him by tube, but even after his numbers were in normal range, he wouldn't eat on his own anymore. Our vet had us buy cans of Science Diet wet cat food - it was something like liver flavored and was really...
I posted on the Rainbow Bridge forum earlier this morning that we lost our big fluffy black kitty Storm. He has two "brothers" (from other mothers), one a year older (Apollo) and one two years younger (Romeo). Although Romeo and Storm were best buddies, Romeo basically kept vigil over Storm on...
Three years ago, after losing our gorgeous boy Thor to liver failure, we adopted a stunning and BIG little guy named Storm. Solid black, fluffy and full of energy, there is nothing in this world he loved more than his "fishy pole". He'd drag it through the house and drop it at your feet and then...
I'll get right to the point. I've known my friend since junior high (we're both in our mid 30s now). She loves animals. She has two sons. They both have pets of their own (a lizard and a gerbil I think). I'm telling you this because in the last couple of years, she has lost three cats very...
