I have had him for 17 years and we have battle his heart disease problem for some time. He had his chest drained twice and the last time it only lasted just 3 weeks so i made the extremely painful decision to put my dearest friend to sleep. I made the call to the vet who came up and examined him, and agreed that it was the right time, as he was laboured with his breathing once again. I wanted him to be put to sleep at home in the quiet and familiar sound and smell of home. I was expecting an injection in to his vein, as i had had another cat put to sleep this way over 20 years ago, which was very...http://mysmelly.com/Archive/MyCatIsSick/cmvhd/post.htmWed, 08 May 2013 20:59:24 GMThttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/MyCatIsSick/cmvhd/post.htmAnonymoushttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/MyCatIsSick/cmvhd/post.htmCan you tell me what sickness he has?

She didn't eat anything since the 17th (today is the 21st) except for a small bite of tuna. She drinks a lot of water though. She slept for two days and uses the litter box. Her incision looks healthy and she doesn't seem to be in pain, neither does she have a fever. She walks around now. What can I do to get her to eat? I left tuna, dry food, several types of wet food and chicken at her usual eating place. PS: The other cats are treating her like an outcast now, so I am keeping her away from them. She doesn't seem depressed and slept in my bed last night. It is also close to winter here, so the cold may play a role.http://mysmelly.com/Archive/StalkerKitty/cmvcx/post.htmTue, 23 Apr 2013 01:27:37 GMThttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/StalkerKitty/cmvcx/post.htmAnonymoushttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/StalkerKitty/cmvcx/post.htmMy 12 yr old cat has always been my shadow.....she calmly follows me up and down the stairs and comes and goes from my bedside as she pleases...she's not super cuddly affectionate, but aloof and very matter of fact when she's hungry..one or two crisp meows by the food dish usually will send the right message.....she has alone time...in her favorite perches...but when I'm home she's usually near by but indifferent..

He has black/brown eye crusties which I cleaned but return over the 24hrs I've had him back.

My cat was acting fine but I decided to take him to the vet for a subcutaneous fluid therapy injection. When I put him in the car to go home, he seemed subdued, ate poorly that evening, and now is not eating at all. I want to emphasize that he seemed to start feeling badly immediately after the injection and I noticed that he also vomited (a small amount) that same day. Can the fluid therapy actually have bad side effects in some cats?http://mysmelly.com/Archive/Default/cmcnj/post.htmTue, 26 Feb 2013 06:10:46 GMThttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/Default/cmcnj/post.htmAnonymoushttp://mysmelly.com/Archive/Default/cmcnj/post.htmmy 15 yr old kitty is not responding well to her prescription diet...just had a vet visit last week...all blood work is good..no urinary issues...but she's been struggling with IBD for a long time...
