Icarus Going Back To The Vet by
Cat Protector
It looks like Icarus may be going back to the vet for another possible
urinary obstruction. I called the vet and left a message so hopefully I'll
get a call back despite it being a Sunday. I've followed all of the vet's
instructions and he gets canned food quite often every day and also gets...

Cats won't eat medicated food by
Helene
One of my two cats has been urinating just outside the litter box, so the
vet suggested they be tested for crystals in the urine. It seems they both
have crystals, so the vet prescribed medicated food to help treat the
crystals. I started feeding the food last night, and neither cat will eat
it....

To neuter, or not, or something else? by
[email protected]
I have an angel of a tomcat; he never sprays, never gets annoyed with
me, waits in the window for my return from work and even plays fetch!
I'm strict about keeping him indoors because there are several other
apartment complexes near me (high-density human population) and more
people means more of...

Went in for X-Ray, came out with dead cat by
Mary
- First of all, I've found that it's a little on the extreme side to
inject a cat with anesthesia for the purpose of taking a simple x-ray.
I was told that it's more common to sedate them with an oral
medication. Is this true, or is this a matter of personal preference
at the vet?
Some...

My cat like lasagna by
whitershadeofpale
Jupiter likes lasagna, she also like popcorn (I break off the fluff for
her)
She's such an outgoing kitten. She is not scared of Lucy, she jumps at
her.
When I goto bed, Jupiter walks up to the side of the bed and cries till
I tuck
her in on my pillow.

Boycott anyone? by
[email protected]
I can't even get through to the number for the recall. It just says
circuits overloaded and has since the damn thing began.
I'm really ****ed off, and I'm wondering if there would be any sense
in trying to organize a boycott of any companies that do business with
Menu Foods?

Calming drugs by
Cheryl
I don't want to think this but I really think it is time for drugs for
Shamrock. He is just the most obnoxious cat and I don't know what to do.
Shadow spends all the time that I'm home terrified of him, so he sticks
close to me. (they are separated when I'm at work) If he doesn't, he gets
backed...

Picking a new vet by
Warren O
Hi,
I've never had to look for a veterinarian. Now that our Georgia has CRF,
we would like to find one closer to us, possibly one that has weekend
hours, too.
What questions do you ask when looking for a vet, or is it all trial and
error? Word of mouth would be a good place to start, but most of...

Advice please? by
Dooies B.B
Sorry to cross post but I have a bit of a dilema.
My cat is now 15 and a half, and although she still eats, drinks, toilets,
and sleeps, she does little else. I know she has some discomfort from her
lower back, and probably kidney problems. Other than that and her increased
laziness she seems...

euthanasia - anything I should know? by
Gary Warner
Hello - I'm a somewhat frequent Usenet user, but never here. My parents
have a cat that it's now time to put to sleep. He's about 14 years old and
over the last month (or less) has ballooned up with fluid in the abdomen.
The
vet did a blood test (negative for any diseases) and then an...

How do you pick out a cat by
Bill
My two cats died this year and I am still pretty sad about that. Someone
suggested that in looking for a cat I should get a mature one - so I could
have some idea of personality - and that seemed like a good idea. I went over
to the local PetSmart where they have some in cages up for adoption. I...

Which are smarter ? by
Knack
Well, here we go again ;-) We know they're not as obedient, but are cats as
smart or smarter than dogs? Surely, you folks who own both must have some
insights about this.
And which of the cat breeds are the smartest? Shouldn't the nonbreeds
generally be smarter?
