It has been a few weeks since our kitty Mr. Lugosi passed away. I posted about it all in this thread for reference. But short version: he was only 3 years old. We adopted him when he was almost 2 years old. He came to us with anxiety issues and would overgroom. He was on kitty Prozac already. In...

Hi there, First of all, I feel like I always come back here when I am struggling with one of my kitties and people are so nice and thoughtful here that I just want to say thank you in advance. We adopted Lugosi in July of 2022 knowing he had some behavioral issues. He would overgroom himself...

Hi everyone, I have been posting on here pretty regularly the past few months as we had lost our cat Spock in early-June and his sister Luna has been struggling a bit to adjust. A month ago, I had been talking to a local rescue about fostering. Then, I came upon one of their long time resident...

We lost one of our cats almost 3 weeks ago now. He had been really sick the past year or so and got even worse in the last 6 months of his life. He was bonded with our other kitty, Luna. At first, she seemed ok, but I am noticing more and more restlessness with her. She meows at me all the...

We lost our cat Spock this past Friday. We had been trying to get a straight answer from our vet for the past year and a half to what was going on with him, but they were not helpful. Someone on this site suggested searching for a cat-focused clinic which I did find a really great one. They saw...

Hi there, I posted back in November about my cat. He is getting weirder. Just a little bit ago I experienced one of his weird manic episodes that I will try to describe. I came home from work a little bit ago and was eating a snack at the dining table before doing some chores. My dogs (we...

Hi all, I havent been on here in quite some time. I had an older kitty who passed 3.5 years ago. She was my BFF growing up and gave me 18 wonderful years in her presence. Still remember her often. I came on here at the end of her life when I had to make the difficult decision and you guys were...

Hi there, I adopted two cats a little over a year ago after my 18 year old kitty passed away. These two kitties are around 6-8 years old. Both have very different personalities from each other. The Maine Coon, who now goes by Spock, is a super lap cat. He is content with anything really haha...

My cat Luna all of the sudden started throwing up this morning and frequently trying to go to the bathroom. My fiance was at home with her for part of the day and she threw up one more time but then has just been hiding. I got home a little while ago and she usually will come to the door but...

Hi all, I posted about a month ago about some new 6 year old kitties that I had adopted. Luna and Spock... Both sweet kitties with very different personalities. Luna is the more timid one who likes to spend time with us but only on her terms. I definitely feel a little partial to this kitty...

Hi all, I have mostly been posting in the Crossing the Bridge board because I lost my cat of 18 years recently. But, last weekend I ended up adopting two cats who needed a home because their previous pet mom went into hospice unfortunately. These cats are 6 years old. One who is a Maine Coon...

Hi there, My sweet kitty, Paprika, passed away a little over 2 months ago. I recently got my sweet kitty tattooed on my leg in rememberance of her because she was a big part of my life. Here is a pic of the tattoo: The artist did an amazing job. The eyes are really what strikes me every...

My cat Paprika passed away a little over a month ago now and I knew for a couple of years that the end was not too far off for her. But, nothing could prepare me for the emptiness that I feel in my heart still. The past week I have stayed at work late and a couple times I think to myself "I...

Hi all, I have posted here in the past about my kitty, Paprika. She was dealing with kidney and liver disease and at her initial diagnosis about 2.5 years ago they gave me a grim outlook. However, with treatments and love, we were able to prolong her life for a long time. Unfortunately, this...

Hello everyone, My cat, Paprika, who is 17, has been dealing with kidney and liver disease for the past two years. The first year I was told she would only live maybe 6 months to a year after diagnosis. A year later she was still with me. I took her in because she was severely constipated...

This month has been rough for me to say the least but the worst was when my vet suggested that it was time to put my beloved kitty to sleep. Earlier this year in January, I took her in because she was losing weight very quickly and frequently throwing up. The vet ran tests and found that her...

My kitty suffers from constipation issues mainly because she's a senior kitty [13 years old]. She's been on a mainly dry food diet her whole life. My vet told me to switch her to half and half plus mix miralax in the wet food. I started feeding her this mix a month ago and still she will not go...

I've been on the fence about this idea for quite a while now and I'm still not exactly sure what to do. Here is my/our scenario. My cat is 12 almost 13. She still looks and acts like a young girl... Like maybe 5. However she does have some dietary issues due to her older age. As a young kitten...

Hello everyone, My 12 year old cat recently went through a pretty traumatic experience. Last Saturday, I took her to the vet because she had been straining a lot to the point of bleeding. She would poop but it was sometimes really just dry little nuggets and very rarely a large poop. The vet...
