Thank you Traci, As we have not yet made reservations, I will call all of the possible airlines to inquire about their policies. We will have the freedom to choose any airline, so our decision will be based on our cats. I will discuss acepromazine with our vet. In the meantime, I would greatly appre...

My husband and I and our 2 kitties will be moving from the US to the Netherlands next year, permanently. We haven't yet figured out the logistics, but I know one leg of the journey will be by air, with at least one connecting flight. We refuse to have our cats fly in baggage, so we will be taking th...

Thank you all - there are many helpful suggestions here. I will try them and let you know.

This is such a helpful group - thanks for all of your help so far. I have 2 indoor only kitties, 1 male 1 female, and both are spayed/neutered. There is a prowling Tom in my neighborhood who has decided to stroll through my backyard and spray at my patio screen doors. And now that summer is here, I ...

My 9 month old kitten, Tenkon, has been dealing with bouts of rhinotracheitis. We have given her idoxuridine for the flare ups, and our vet suggested daily supplements of l-lysine to help inhibit viral replication.

She told me the combination of cat milk and the Hills Rx food, in the quantities I have been giving, should provide enough fluid to get her to urinate. She suggested that my kitten might be urinating elsewhere ...

Just a followup on our kitty. I woke up early this morning and went in to check on her. She was not on the couch. I looked around and found her sitting under the coffee table watching me. Then I went over to the litter box and lo and behold I saw a nice big poop just buried under some litter. I am s...

I have not seen her even try to get off the couch. I know she can walk because if I place her on the floor she will move under the couch and sit and look at me. She was spayed recently, and her belly is still shaved, but her stitches have dissolved. I wonder if she is still feeling pain from the sur...

Three days ago I adopted a 6 month old kitten from the Humane Society. Took her to my vet, and she has a URI - stuffed nose, sneezing, lethargy, slight fever. All she wants to do is curl up on the couch in a blanket and sleep. She doesn't like to stand up, but she seems strong enough. I wonder if sh...
