    Cat seriously injured or not??

    (I'm not a vet either) If possible you may want to take him to the vet to be doubly safe. I have a stray that stays outside and gets in random tiffs with other cats and goes off on long jaunts for 2 days sometimes. He's come back with some small war wounds, but safe is better than sorry.

    End Stage Kidney Failure...my poor baby Ginger

    I am so sorry to hear about Ginger and your pain. I've been through the exact same thing with Boo. Afterwards his meds were still everywhere, his blankets, his tents, .. it was really hard. But I personally just let it out whenever it started to come up. It was easier than keeping it in and...

    Update on Boo-Boo's Case and Chickster's Fits

    Aw thanks! I've missed you and everyone too! Yes, everyone is safe and sound. Chickster woke us all up last night by chasing a moth until she knocked a load of things off a dresser and caused a horrible domino effect, even knocking over a telescope I have in my room. She is ok, but it goes to...

    Update on Boo-Boo's Case and Chickster's Fits

    Thank you Otto! Yes she keeps us up and moving but it's a good thing. She's just not a lazy lap cat! Boca also gets her going sometimes, they just dislike each other and he needs neutering, but.. anyway, Things are going well! Thank you!!!

    Update on Boo-Boo's Case and Chickster's Fits

    Mods, please move this to another spot if it is better located there. I'm in a tizzy and I didn't really think where to put it. A good tizzy though. I wanted to give some extra info directly from the letter provided by the Board. They dismissed the claim about the Amforal given by the younger...

    Update on Boo-Boo's Case and Chickster's Fits

    HI YOU ALL!!! *big hugs* I am so sorry I've been gone for so long. So many things have been going on here!! First of all let me say that Chickster is doing very well. We stopped the prozac and have discovered that the main issue with her fits is attention. She is more active than we ever truly...

    Chickster Update (FHS)

    I am hoping it does because I'm at my wits end I'm telling you! Will be getting some this Friday with my paycheck!

    Chickster Update (FHS)

    Along with being triggered by Boca and/or bad tones in my voice when I'm conversating with Mom, I think Chickster possibly has fleas. I took a flea comb to her tail where she attacks (the tip) and came out with small black dots. I brushed her all over and didn't get one single flea, but the...

    Frustrating vet visit

    My new vet is AAHA accredited, which, personally this is the first AAHA vet I've been to but it's the best one I've ever had (Counting the three offices I've been to) ... Definitely tell them if you're displeased. I get worried even seeing a different vet inside my current vet's practice because...

    Pilling a Cat

    Wild kitty refuses meds! Sorry you are having such troubles. My Chickster is a bit wild with hers sometimes, and the sit on method works, with ankles crossed so she can't back away, but she will twist her head like the exorcist to get away from the pill. She'll try not to purposely bite me but...

    Chickster Update (FHS)

    Yes, pill form. I've been cutting her half into halves and giving her 2 1/4 pills, (easier for her to swallow) I've tasted the pill, it's not bitter, it's actually pretty salty. Thing is, she doesn't always have the foaming problem with the pill. It's beef flavor and a chewable (for dogs). I...

    Chickster Update (FHS)

    She was freaked out when the wind blew and the snow went everywhere, and the branches scraped on the window. Her tail smacking kept me up for an hour LOL. I have unfortunately jinxed things and she is having a fit now. It's a pretty bad one. She started licking on a plastic bag, and licked for...

    Chickster Update (FHS)

    The other thread got so long I thought I'd just pop one up here for those keeping up. She's been doing great, but still issues with the regular pooping schedule. I've figured out a couple of her triggers, one of which is obviously her constipation/unwillingness to go poo and the other one is...

    Kitten health concerns, URGENT

    Thank you for taking in this poor baby! I would report them to the appropriate authorities for animal abuse, too, but then you COULD possibly get mixed up into the whole "She stole our cat" thing, can she make an anonymous call? That is all I would be worried about... and if it were me I'd...

    Lazer pointers?

    Of course never point it directly into the cats eyes or let it reflect off of a glass/mirror/reflective surface into their eyes. I also don't let my cat play with the laser light for very long periods of time, because after a few minutes of looking at it on the floor myself, the red dot takes a...

    Chickster Growling at butt

    Yes. She is pooping on her own, no stimulation help from me, it is just taking 2 or more days between poops. Still too firm for me, but it's coming out. The nuggets are slowly disappearing it seems tho! I am happy

    Chickster Growling at butt

    Just an update... No fits, none at all. Happy, loving kitty Chick here, just chillin'. Smelling of everything for some reason, constantly, pretty much since she's been on the prozac, but things are fine. Still having a pooping issue, so may need to change foods again.. otherwise, she's a happy cat!

    Me, too. She's peeing on her own now and hasn't needed any assistance. No fits this morning either. She's doing well

    Chickster Growling at butt

    Yes, exactly. They are very dignified. Boo was so dignified that he couldn't stand getting his feet the slightest bit wet, and he would get irritated with me because I made it rain. :T LOL. Chickster poo'd again and it was a darker brown color, but most of it was softening up. Either end of it...

    Chickster Growling at butt

    Hi Begemot! You're not eavesdropping All of my cats never liked to be laughed at when they tripped, fell, did something embarrassing, or otherwise. My Boo (RIP) would sometimes go running as fast as he could up the steps, and trip and fall. He'd recover quickly but it was so funny I laughed...
