Sparky Update by
[email protected]
2 am. Just checked Sparky again. I was surprised he actually lifted his
head and looked up. Then he looked towards his water dish. I slid it
over to him and he drank some from it. First time in a day.
He's to weak to walk well, so I held him in his letter box and he
urinated. Then I gave him some...

Older cat with digestive problems by
jonathan
Hi,
I have a 7 year old Siamese named baggy. He chews on plastic bags and
throws up his food. I have tried many different diets with no luck. I
recently purchased pet grass (which has yet to grow). Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Jonathan

Advice, please: Cat hygiene question by
[email protected]
Greetings, all;
One of our cats is a ~2 year old neutered male DLH who is in all but
one respect a splendid kitty.
The quibble: he doesn't always clean himself after using the litter
box. Talking about a bit of mess around his anus, not about
'hitch-hikers' or 'klingons'.
We check him regularly...

Sparky/Tapazole Update by
[email protected]
Here it is, about 1 am eastern time, Chistmas morning. If Sparky makes
it to daylight I'll be surprised.
After having his kidneys flushed at the vet Monday and Tuesday, he
seemed in about the same shape as when I took him in. Quiet, but alert.
The vet said to stop the Tapazole.
Wednesday was...

diabetic cat? by
[email protected]
anyone know how to test a cat's blood
sugar?
http://www.felinediabetes.com/glucose.htm
I prefer to test using the ear as using a paw pad has a risk of
infection because the site will be exposed to bacteria from the
litterbox when the cat uses it.

Jumper won't go down by
Ruby Tuesday
Hi,
I have a Siamese kitten (6 months), who now can jump up on my dresser and
dining table. My problem is this: at night, when I'm ready to go to
sleep, he wakes up (from having slept through most of the the day), goes and
does some stuff, then jumps up on my dresser. I wouldn't ordinarily...

Indoor cats - do they need vaccinations by
David Archer
Hi all,
I have two indoor cats, by which I mean they have never been outside
the falt, and are never allowed so (this is because I live in central
London with heavy traffic, and was advised to raise them as indoor
cats by cat charities for their own safety).
Anyway, my questions is - do they need...

TV show by
Cheryl
Has anyone seen a show on TV called Pet Keeping? I've caught it a few Sat
mornings and the guy has some really good tips. Come to find out its a
production of Martha Stewart. Regardless, it's a neat show. Next week the
host is going to have some "sure fire" tips to keep your cat from

what to get the cat who has everything? by
Sue
I'd like to get my sweet kitty, Spike, a new toy for Christmas. He's a
very active and playful 2 year old neutered male. Behaviorally, he is
still in the kitten/adolescent cat stage. He needs a lot of play to keep
him occupied.
We have the feline flyer (AKA da bird), the laser pointer, the usual...

natural remedies? by
lakinapook
I know someone posted here that they were using a vet that utilized
more natural remedies for common problems, and was wondering if anyone
could suggest a book about this? I have recently decided that
sometimes strong medicine just isn't the answer.

Tapazole problems by
[email protected]
My 15 year old tabby began using Tapazole a little over a year ago. He
began to eat better and gained some weight.
A couple weeks ago his progress went downhill and his appetitie greatly
decreased and he has been very quiet. Turns out now his kidneys are bad.
The vet confirmed the Tapazole...

One Person. One Cat. Clipping Tips? by
James Messick
This cat, unlike other's I've had, is "extremely uncooperative" when it
comes to toenail clipping (his, not mine). I prefer not to have to keep
hauling him to the vets. Any strategie for a lone person who want to cut
his pet's toenaild? Thanks.

Neresse's trip to the vet by
Dennis Carr
So we took her to the vet. The oldest of our girls. Made mention of her
in a previous post, entitled "silly kitty".
For starters, keep in mind she's always been a small and slightly frail
cat.
The doctor confirmed dental trouble in the way of some gum disease to an
extent of something awful,...
