arthritis which has spread since last spring. The vet took blood for a full
body scan and I'll have the results on that monday or tuesday. They also did

Best Friend by
Justin Clarke
Thankyou so much to all those people who responded to my post "Best
Friend"on the 13/12, your well wishes and kind words were of real comfort on
what was undoubtedly the worst day of my life. It's funny, Squirm didn't
talk my language, laugh at my jokes or share hardly any of my interests, and
yet...

Best friend by
Justin Clarke
I've just lost my beloved cat Squirm after 7 years. She truly was my best
friend and her sudden loss feels more than I can bear. I keep expecting her
to turn up at the front door or see her sleeping on the couch. The thought
of never seeing her again is so devastating that I can't stop crying. Why...

weird discharge from eyes by
Dennis Carr
OK, here's something I'm slightly worried about.
Possibly owing to the fact that we're a little late on his shots, one of
our mongrel boys has an unusual discharge - but in this case it appears to
be slightly tinged with red.
He is otherwise healthy, down to being a downright slut for tummy...

Is De-clawing a US thing? by
Jeannie
I was just wondering but is de-clawing cats particular to the US? I live in
the UK and until I subscribed to this newsgroup, I didn't even know that you

something growing from his neck - upper chest area. I was petting him

Rene
Benny, the cat with the cloudy eye, went back to the opthamalogist
today for a checkup. The pressure in his eye has stabilized and we can
reduce the frequency of the drops from one per day to every other day,
and then (in a month) to twice per week. He gets another check in
March.
He's doing quite...

hello all
I couldn't find any FAQ's so I hope this is not repeating old stuff but I

Due to where I live, next to some abandoned ground and green space in an

My cat's tail.... by
Meghan
Hey Jim, nice pic. Yes, my Persian cat had a tail *that* fluffy. It was
so fluffy that when she got older and couldn't groom herself anymore, I
literally had to keep the tail trimmed for her. :-) Is your cat Persian?
Or part?
