So, my cat, Funny Face (sixteen year old spayed tortie) was recently diagnosed with asthma. The vet has given her a depo shot, steroids, Terbutaline, antibiotics, and an appetite stimulant in an attempt to help. He said it's not a bad case of asthma, not like ones he has seen many times. The...

Recently, my fifteen year old kitty, Meejee, was diagnosed with gastroenteritis. The vet did blood work and tested his thyroid, and to his (and my) shock, the results were excellent. He was given a shot of Depo (I can't remember the full name) and antibiotics. The vet said that Meejee also has a...

First off, I want to say that I will be taking Meejee to the vet Monday morning. I had a cat years ago who had the urinary crystals that would stop him up. I'm not sure if that's what's going on here or not, because he doesn't squat to pee around the house like the previous cat did. He's still...

We recently adopted an abandoned kitten, around two months old, from my cousin (he and his wife found her in a box on the side of the road) and she has barely eaten anything today and is sleeping a lot. We're taking her to the vet in the morning but I wanted to come here for, I don't know...

We've had Roo for several years and I'm not sure what color she should be called. I refer to her as a red tabby with black markings. Is there a name for her coat color?

I'm really worried about my Sweety. She has been sick since Wednesday. She has vomited four or five times since then, has (horrible smelling) diarrhea, won't eat, and lays around. I took her to the vet and had her checked out. The vet said her heart and lungs sound fine and her temperature was...

My mom and I share a house and she noticed earlier that her cat, Roo, has a large sore next to her butt. It has what looks like pus in it and is about the size of a pinto bean. It doesn't seem to bother her too much as she's still moving around the house and acts normal aside from sometimes...

I'm not exactly new here. I've lurked for a long time and joined back in June of last year but I'm rather skittish. The community here is so warm and friendly, so I feel comfortable coming to you with this. I'm so lost... First off, my baby, Meejee, stopped eating Saturday and became very...
