    Peeing outside the box?

    One of our cats has litterbox issues. I adopted her last January and noticed the issues around May. I took her in, thinking she had a UTI or something related. After tests, we found she has renal kidney failure and she's on fluid treatment twice a week. When I adopted her from the shelter, they...

    Interested in helping support our troops?

    For those that don't know, my husband Erik is in the 82d Airborne Division and will be deploying to Afghanistan for a year in January. While he is deployed, I'm going to be sending packages for the other soldiers in his company as well - there's a lot of single guys that may not get that much...

    Figaro (our newest cat) has been really sick the past two days - moping, sleeping a lot, and as of last night, diarrhea/vomiting. I took him to the vet today, who kept him for tests.

    Our trip to Myrtle Beach...

    We went on our little "mini-honeymoon" this weekend to Myrtle Beach. We're not taking one because we can't afford the leave time with the Army since Erik has to take two weeks off to move me home in December before he deploys. We're going to take a big trip when he gets out of the Army, so oh...

    The importance of brushing your baby's teeth...

    When we adopted Figaro about a month ago, his breath was HORRIBLE and I knew his teeth were going to need some major work. When I took him in for his first vet visit, the vet told me they were the worst teeth he's ever seen and they needed to be taken care of asap. I dropped him off yesterday...

    I got this question through my cat info site and have no idea how to answer it - the only info I can find on FIE is just about the disease and how to prevent it. Anyone have any experience with this?
