I have had a good solution (I think) to keeping indoor cats, but allowing them outside access too. I had a cat fence built in my backyard. That is a fence that has a flexible, bent over flap (don't kow what to call it) but the cats cannot climb out of it and animals cannot get in. The main fence is ...

I don't know why the vet didn't do more bloodwork then. She checked for feline leukemia even though the cat had been vaccinated for it. She said sometimes it doesn't show up when they are kittens. Also the cat had come from a shelter. She is taking him back Tuesday for the blood work. My daughter sa...

Has anyone had any experience with a cat having a seizure because of fear? My daughter was taking her cat to the vet and when she put him in a carrier and put him in the car, he had a seizure. He is only one yr. old, she got him from a shelter. The vet checked him out and checked again for feline le...

I have 3 cats now. One 3yrs.old. One 1yr. and one about 8 months old. I keep them mainly in the house but I do have a cat fence in my backyard. In the spring they loved going out.

I explained on the feline health board what happened to my cat. She was in great pain, and needed to be released. She was in respiratory failure. The doctor was trying to revive her but I told him no. She was not going to get better. I miss her so much, it's true your heart can ache Also my stomach ...

I called my vet about my kitty and told him I was picking her up today. he said he was a little more hopeful, that her bladder seemed to be working now. He wanted me to bring her some wet food she liked. I went to see her and she was in terrible shape. She was in a lot of pain and her stomach was sp...

My 2 yr. old tabby has been in the vet hospital since last Wed. I wk, 1 day. She had quit eating and couldn't go to the bathroom. The vet has been giving her enemas and even manually tried to clean her out. Now he says her bladder isn't working either. He gave her anti-biotics and has had her on pre...
