So for years, Lucy had a habit of meowing at 4 AM every morning because I would get up at 4:30 AM. She didn’t do that today, so of course that was a sign. She didn’t eat much this morning, even after giving her a buffet of choices to pick from. I think I’m finally at peace with my decision to...

Thank you so much everyone. Your heartfelt responses are so appreciated. Woke up at 430am for work and she greeted me at the door ready to eat. She ate well and rubbed her face on the back door. Today is a good day. I got her vaccines yesterday and bloodwork so we will see what the bloodwork...

I don’t understand this response

My Siamese, Lucy, came to me in 2009 as a stray. She had a rough set of teeth at the time, so the vet that I took her to thought she was already an elder kitty. She guessed her to be 10 years old back then. Well that would make her 24 this year so I doubt she is 24, but she is certainly pushing...

I’m sure my vet will be open to anything I ask. I have been with her since the late 90s. Right now I’m just doing what she tells me but I will definitely ask. Thank you thank you thank you!

Hello everyone! My Olivia had a bout of hepatic lipidosis a few months ago. I got her back to Health luckily. They did an ultrasound and a fine needle aspirate and confirmed it was hepatic lipidosis. Her liver enzymes and bilirubin were also very elevated. I took her back for a check up after...

She’s growling so she is certainly not thrilled with me right now.

So Olivia 🐈‍⬛ went on a hunger strike for some reason and now she’s jaundice and not well. Blood work showed elevated liver enzymes - specifically Bili and ALP. Ultrasound showed potential possibilities of hepatic lipidosis, cholangiohepatitos, or hepatic lymphoma. They did a fine needle...

So here is the verdict. They got urine but they said it looks clear although they will send it off anyway to get it checked. Both of her anal glands were impacted, infected, and had the look of cottage cheese I was told. Mystery solved.

She used to scoot her booty some so maybe it IS her anal glands. She's a Siamese too. :) Thanks to you both. Her appt is at 240pm today. I used to have a kitty with anal gland issues. One of his anal glands actually absessed. The emergency vet lanced it and asked if anyone had any...

So I've noticed my girl Bonnie (5 years old) grooming her genital area more than normal over the past few days. Monday evening, she started walking backward a bit and then was fine. Tuesday evening, I noticed her walking in a couple of circles and then was fine. She's still licking herself...

I hope it is something simple too. If it comes back, my first change will be the food. My vet said the food should be fine but who knows? I buy PurinaOne Grain Free Chicken. It is store-bought so maybe I need to think about a higher end food. Curious about opinions from others on food. I can’t...

Who could resist them? I just love them so much.

There were three. I trapped all three and one of my coworkers took the third one. She is living the life in the Virgin Islands now. My poor husband knew when I put food out, that they were to be mine soon.

This memory showed up on my Facebook from 4 years ago. This is Olivia with her “sister from another Mister” Bonnie.

No the serenading wasn’t in a good way. But I tried to talk to her on the way and all she did was sing louder. Poor baby was shaking at the Vet. Her mom is a Siamese and she got her voice from her momma. My vet told me we can investigate further if things don’t clear up. Many thanks.

Hello to all you wonderful cat people. I took Olivia to my kitty doctor this morning and she said it was a pretty bad rodent ulcer. She got 20 mg of Depo-Medrol and tells me if it does not clear up in about two weeks to bring her back. I told her about everything Olivia carries in her mouth and...

Thanks to you all! Calling tomorrow morning for an appt. she carries everything around in her mouth....food dishes are all ceramic so I doubt it’s a dish issue. I feed PurinaOne Grain Free Chicken dry only. No food changes. Had a wasp get in the house and I’m sure her and her sister played with...

This picture look familiar to anyone? I’m making an appointment for Olivia (she is four) this week. This has been going on for a little over a week now. I thought it was an allergy to something but I thought it would have gone away on its own by now. She is always carrying stuff in her mouth...

Thanks to everyone who was so helpful to me about Roscoe. As a refresher, he was diagnosed with CHF a couple of months ago. Before then, he was not letting me sleep - kept waking me up every couple of hours to feed him. What's happened now is that his glucose was elevated so I put him on...
