Thanks MnM :) I'm quite frantic at the moment. And thank you for sharing with me--I hope your furbaby does ok in the biopsy!
I'm afraid I've missed some earlier sign that there was a problem and now I'm watching Harley and trying to be cautiously optimistic, but not feeling it. She's eaten and...
Hey folks,
I don't generally post a lot, but right now I'm in a pretty stressful situation and I need to share and hear thoughts.
I have 4 cats at the moment (Harley, Max, Electra & Jess). Harley is the source of the cat-stress at the moment.
Harley is 6. She is an indoor only cat (with...
Worm?!! Worms.... :(
Help me not freak out folks, please?
Ok so since we were going to get hit with a fairly large winter storm on Weds, I decided we'd bring Jess into the house (and quarantine him/her in my studio) so that we didn't have to fret and he wouldn't have to freeze/get eaten by...

As for the name, if you don't feel comfortable changing it....you could always call him "Lex" and if people ask you could say he's named after Lex Luthor ;)
But seriously though, I think changing the name is upto you and the cat. WE got a rescue cat that the shelter had named...
I can understand how you feel, and I empathize both for you and for your kitty. I'd like to suggest that you remember a couple of things when you're feeling "she doesn't like me!" and I mean these in the best way!
1) You're familiar with your life, and you're stable with your surroundings.I...
First, I'm sorry if this isn't the right section to post this in (I think it is...but maybe not?)
My husband and I got a woodstove installed just before Thanksgiving (our only source of heating) and so far we've had few problems with keeping the furries away from it (as in not jumping on it...
Please do try to get a second opinion from another vet. You might need a fresh pair of veterinary eyes to see a solution?
As for using Benadryl my vet told me to keep some of the liquid children's handy (we have some really nasty hornets and my girls are keen on hunting them...and I like to be...
