    What would you do? I need help and fast...I can't do this anymore!! (long, but asap

    I've posted here many times about my cat Sophie. Sophie is a male. I adopted Sophie at 6 weeks because his mother abandoned him. I will refer to him as "she", I apologize, he was very underdeveloped when we first got him and even the vet made the mistake until MONTHS in. So there's always...

    How does one go about "rehoming"?!

    If I have to rehome two of my cats, it will absolutely break my heart into pieces...but in my current living circumstances, that may very well be the case. I am fighting it, but I need to be prepared. I've asked friends and family and none are interested (just as I suspected) in taking older...

    Sophie....continued... 3 Years Old and possible kidney failure?!! *LONG.*

    Okay, my last thread about Sophie was after she was given anti-depressants, which is something we've been flirting with for about a year or two and finally decided it was time. Last year around this time (December 30th), I lost the love of my life and my soulmate, my cat Mutty, 19 years old...

    I'm absolutely in tears right now! Advice please!!!!

    My Sophie has had an anxiety marking problem (and general anger problem) for a long time now and finally we made a decision with the vet to put her on kitty anti-depressants. She WILL NOT take the pill, no matter what I do. I've listened to all the advice, tried to force her to just swallow...

    So, as much as I *thought* I knew about cat food........when I got my first ever Puppy, a Yorkie named Poppy and was researching different healthy food choices for her, I came to realize that I have been duped several times. Just because it says "natural" on the package, clearly doesn't mean...

    A Pet Insurance that covers Check-ups and Vaccines?

    GoPetPlan is definitely #1 on my list......however, it does not cover any preventative care. Does anyone know of any insurance companies that offer that?? It would be a great help! Go pet plan only offers accidental insurance OR "testing" for illness. I would love a plan that helps with...
