    Lung Cancer

    I'd like to thank everyone for their prayers and support.  It worked!  I have finished my radiationi and chemo and I'm CANCER FREE.  I still have all 4 cats and so far everything has worked out very well considering the initial diagnosis.  Thanks again!

    Kitten Begging Relentlessly and Becoming Aggressive

    I didn't see in your post what and how much you are feeding this kitten. It sounds like the kitten is not getting enough food. Kittens should be free fed and always have plenty of water.

    Twitching & Sensitive Skin

    Hi - I'm having a problem with my 8 year old indoor only cat. When I pet her on the lower half of her back and base of her tail, her head twitches and she has very sensitive skin. She won't even let me brush her. She does not have fleas and I'm not seeing any white dandruff like stuff on...

    What should I feed my cat?

    have you considered taking him off dry food all together and giving him a wet patte style food? Maybe something with no chunks? If you have nothing in patte style maybe you could try something in the blender (canned) mixed with water and make it a gravy consistency. Maybe that will stay down.

    Eating issues

    You don't say what kind of food, how much and how often you feed your cat. That makes a huge difference.

    Lung Cancer

    Believe me, the last thing I want to do is give my cats up. I'm worried I'm going to get sick from the chemo and radation and not be able to physically take care of them, let alone financially. We all know how long it takes to rehome a cat, especially when you love your animals the way we do...

    Lung Cancer

    After everyone harping on me to quit smoking, they were successful. I quit smoking 2 years ago. I have now been diagnosed with lung cancer. I have a tumor in my chest, a paralized vocal cord and advanced emphazima. I'm single with 4 cats. My family lives a couple hours away. I'm worried...

    Should I Foster? + Lots of questions

    Its been my understanding that you can't over feed a kitten. They could/should be free fed. (with water available at all times 24/7)

    Update on Jasper & spraying issue

    Oh I'm so sorry to hear that. Keep a close eye on him. Those bites turn into absesses so fast. I wonder if your vet could give you some kind of antibiotic for a preventative measure?

    My kitten is very sick... need advice...

    I'm in no way shape or form suggesting that your current vet does't know what he is doing but...have you thought about getting a second opinion maybe by a holistic vet? I'm just thinking that maybe your current vet has done everything inside the box and maybe its time to look "outside the box"...

    Can't break the bad food behavior

    awesome glad the feeder is working - don't get me wrong I was not advocating obesity I just think 5lbs for a cat is a huge swing in weight gain or loss. Hopefully the feeder and Wellness will work out.

    aggressive at meal time

    you say 1/2 can at 7pm but what size can? and what kind of food? That may not be enough food. I know for mine it wouldn't be. Mine would be climbing the walls if they didn't have food for 12 hours. I'd never get any sleep.

    So many questions!

    Hi Orangeishcat - I don't see what kind of food and how much food you are feeding your cat a day. Four times a day is a good plan but how much are you feeding him each time and what kind? Not all foods are created equal. Maybe he's acting very hungry because he is very hungry.

    How can I give a timid, gentle cat more confidence?

    I have one that is afraid of people (besides our household) also. I have found that cats are usually more confident when up high. Do they have a perch or anything up high in your living room? I guess it doesn't bother me if mine is skiddish of other people. We have her for our enjoyment not...

    How does someone know if the glands have been emptied or not? My cat has had that smell before also but it seems to go away.
