I'm so sorry for your loss. When I commented to my daughter (age 26) about how gutwrenching the grieving process for Stoffie was and how shocked I was at how badly I was feeling, she put it into this perspective: "Mom, it doesn't matter whether you lose a pet or a person, your heart doesn't dif...

Yes, he is fourth from last...I see what you mean. Isn't he a lovely boy?

I'll absolutely keep an eye on him! And his picture is the last one on the first page of successes...at least the way the page opens up for me. He is sitting up on a green plaid couch...

Hello, Just an update on Teddy - happily he is now free of all respiratory infection and worms and is healthy and happy. Clearly he is used to snuggling with other cats from his colony days because he wants to get as close to us as he can...my husband is even enjoying him and that's saying something...

Hi, Traci, sorry - the dosage was indeed 62.5mg (my typo). We just got back from seeing the vet and she did a swab. Nothing wrong in his mouth at all - perfect teeth.

Thank you, everyone, from the bottom of my heart. Your thoughts, words and prayers are more comforting that I can possibly convey. We are doing relatively okay, although the pain creeps up on me when I least expect it! I know that's normal and I just have a good cry. I see Stoffie everywhere, doing ...

What a beautiful kitty! She is so fortunate to have you to love and to love her. I wish you both well!

Sadly, Stoffie has used up all of his lovely nine lives. He developed a very aggressive tumour in his stomach, and stopped eating altogether, despite our best efforts to stimulate his appetite. For the past 30 hours or so, he experienced difficulty lying down - no position was comfortable and he was...

Thank you all for the kind comments and support. Traci, excellent advice, thank you. My vet and I are in almost daily contact and she is wise, empathetic and knowledgeable. We've given Stoffie many food choices and he is on vitamins, supplements for appetite and bone marrow stimulation. I think he's...
