    Widget's recent issues with urinary blockage/Need food suggestions

    Widget, my 3 year old, suddenly developed a blockage in his urethra that required a 4 night vet stay, catherization, etc. Vet says he MUST now eat Hill's c/d. I was feeding Instinct Raw Boost Grain Free Recipe with Real Chicken Natural Dry Cat Food, at will feeding, plus he shared a can of...

    I/O at vet's

    I/O, my bicolor girl, has something wrong in her mouth...probably dental. The shelter told me 2 years ago, when I got her, that she was 4...but she behaves more like a senior cat. I suspect she's more like 10-15 at this point. Anyway, she is very non-compliant when it comes to anything that...

    New Tuxedo Baby!

    If Anyone Here Has Been Here A Long-ish Time...

    My Cable got very ill back last winter. She dropped over 1/2 her body weight & wasn't eating, so I chose to euthanize her. I took her to the shelter, & brought home a new furbaby, I/O (she's the cat on the left in my avatar) so that Ping wouldn't be alone. Cable was a sweet girl, and I miss her...

    My sweet Pixel left me yesterday :',(

    Pixel, my 14 year old, left for the Bridge last night. :sniffle: i'd had her (& her littermate :angel: Mouse) since they were both about 7 weeks old. i'd read the name Pixel in a book & liked it - the problem was finding a 'companion' name. a friend suggested Mouse, & Mouse was a blue cat, so it...

    Cable's got cardiomyopathy :(

    Cable's been wheezing lately, so i took her to the vet a couple of weeks ago. vet thought it was feline asthma - gave her a steroid shot - & i had recently switched to a new, lighter-weight litter that i thought might have triggered it [she's a major flinger!]. anyway, it got a little better...
