Re: My sick kitty...

Great news, everyone! I took Kendall in for her recheck today. Xrays showed no bladder stones. It seems that switching her to the Waltham S/O diet has helped her body to either disolve or pass the stones. She has also gained a significant amount of weight, no traces of blood in stool or urine, and n...

Re: kitten does not drink water

Ebay may be a cheaper option for purchasing the Drinkwell pet fountain, just make sure you don't bid on a cheap imitation, and don't bid more than what you would pay in the store (remember s&h charges apply too.) I wouldn't buy a used fountain due to potential viral exposure from someone else's ...

Re: ??? One dog cleaning another's ears?

I have two beagle/shepherd mix doggies that I rescued out of the interstate median, rightfully named Raleigh and Denver the "Highway Puppies". Raleigh is the female and loves to clean Denver's ears... I thought it was just a nurturing thing since he doesn't return the favor. Denver has the...

Re: My sick kitty...

Hi again, Kendall still seems to be doing well. I have been doing the hydration checks and all seems good. Kendall is a black cat and her gums look very dark which scared me at first, but then I checked her brother, Banjo (who is also black) and his gums are also dark. I think she is hydrated; she i...

Re: Cystitis, bladder obstruction

Hi Einy's family, It sounds like maybe Einy and Kendall are both having some problems jumping. I did post an update on Kendall last night (check page 2 on the "My sick kitty" thread.) When I got Kendall home on Friday afternoon her back legs seemed "wobbly." She had much trouble ...

Re: My sick kitty...

Hi all and happy new year, Kendall is doing great. I brought her home on Friday with some new medications and she seems to be happier and friskier than she has been in weeks. While I'm still a bit irritated with my vet's "wait and see" approach (as Traci noticed), I am more hopeful than ev...

Re: My sick kitty...

Good news: Kendall is doing much better today. The vet said she did not pass any blood through the night but did have diarrhea that looked normal (I never thought I'd be so happy to hear that my kittty has diarrhea.) She hasn't thrown up either, and seems much more responsive to them. The bad news i...

Re: droed cat poop in carpet- any miracle products/methods?

I'm a little late chiming in here, but maybe this will still help someone. Nature's Miracle is a great enzyme cleaner, but I've found that "Pet Spotter" from Home Depot also works pretty well and is far less expensive... it is also an enzymatic cleaner, although I don't think it's "as...

Re: My sick kitty...

Hi all, thanks for your continued support. Today brought a combination of bad news and a little good news regarding Kendall, but mostly "no news". The vet reported that she had a really bad night (last night) and lost alot of blood during the night. Now they believe that her stones and her...
