Came to TCS after ages and am soooo glad to see the update, Lauren!

YAY for Lazlo! it's so great to hear about his progress. Thanks to you and Gary for nursing him back to health I pray that the next 2 rounds of chemo take care of the bad cells once and for all.

I haven't been around lately and just saw the new addition to your family! Congratulations!!!! Daymon is so so cute and completely matches Holland's gorgeousness!

Thanks Laurie, for the input and the vibes. Yes, his vomit was projectile on Thursday, we saw it. Saturday evening, we did not see him vomit, but there was splattering on the wall, desk etc but Saturday morning was not so. On thursday, the throw up looked more digested, Saturday we could see...

Hi all,  I have been really busy and preoccupied - and consequently, largely absent from TCS. However, I just wanted to drop in today and share with you that our lives changed a year ago when we adopted our first ever pet, our boy Calvin! We believe that we made us a "family" and then we got...

Hobbes was detected with a grade 2-3 murmur the day after we adopted him. Some recommended we give him back but we could not do that. We got a lot of info from our vet and did research. Then when hobbes was diagnosed with asthma 2 months later, we knew he had to be on steroids and heart disease...

We found Calvin retch and have projectile vomiting on Thursday - it was food that he threw up. His poop was ok and I added some fortiflora in his food that evening, thinking it may be indigestion. I also gave all of the boys some vaseline, in case of hairball. Friday was eventless. This morning...

The deal with emergency vets is that you will have to pay unfront and that is an issue. If you are in the US and if the emergency vet accepts Care Credit Card - you can apply for it online and can get approved immediately. All you need is email approving and vets should accept that. This card is...

Both my boys have Home Again microchip and I have not decided yet if I want to go ahead and pay for the yearly fee after the 1st year of enhanced coverage is over. It's not a whole lot but I figured that the fee covers the poison control fee, if we ever have to call them and the poison control...

Awww Laurie  Lazlo's stories just melt my heart! Love that boy! Hope he goes on feeling better and all powerful!

Hi spilledmilk, I am really sorry that your cat and you are having to deal with this - it is really tough. I would not wait till Sunday and try to look for a doctor as soon as possible since shortness of breathe along with inactivity and refusing to eat are not very reassuring. Hobbes is my...

Thanks for the positive vibes, Laurie and Lauren. Casper was just on my lap getting cuddles and purring. However, I see that after a while he gets overstimulated and then tries to bite - not breaking skin and his nip is not as sharp as Hobbes's but it is there. The good thing is his tail sway is...

Thanks so very everyone! He is gorgeous. There's been no interests yet that I know of but I know I have to be patient. I just hope and pray that Casper gets a good home. @ Lauren: He is actually longer than Hobbes but Hobbes has more meat on him. Hobbes is very even tempered and he likes Casper...

Casper now has run of the house and for the most past things are ok but he likes to claim things that are already claimed, like the cat tree, and that's not going down too well with Calvin, my little jealous boy. So unlike Hobbes, you gave into Calvin's demands, Casper is a fighter and stands...

Thanks, everyone! Yes, he is a gorgeous boy and looks very unique. DH says that there is a different kind of innocence on his face. I hope and pray he gets his forever home soon.

The good thing was that the Director of the rescue came over to see him and officially have me as a foster. Casper was nice and affectionate with her and she was impressed. He later got his distemper vaccine and will go for the rabies in the next few days. He definitely is a little withdrawn...

So is the honeymoon over? I officially sign up with the rescue tomorrow as a foster but Casper seems really withdrawn and is not coming to us anymore. It seems that he has realized that it is no more fun to be indoors and hates us for it. He is interested in Hobbes and they bat at each other...
