Ok, here's pretty much everything you'd ever want to know about blacklights, or blacklights to be used for sniffing out cat urine stains. I can't guarantee any of this material, or the sources, I've just tried to get some idea of what may work best for stain spotting. And one thing, not all...

Here's something that's been bugging me for 2 years. 2 years ago my cat wandered out over black top, that cold stuff you black top driveways with. I think it was SealMaster. You get that from Sears. I called a vet who said any cure would not be worth the hassle. I called the company that said...

I had to take my 5 year old Maine Coon into the vet today for what was diagnosed as a bladder infection. They did get a urine sample and tested it - there was blood in it, white blood cells, etc. No crystals. His symptoms were going to the litter box constantly and either not urinating at all or...

Hi all I have a 2 ½ year old male cat who is experiencing problems to urinate due to an infection. Obviously I went to the VET and he applied the cutiter (sorry my English; a thin tube which sucks liquid from the cat’s bladder I imagine). When the VET sucked the urine it was dark yellow almost...

Monday I took the kitty to the vet for a bladder infection with blood. Seemed to improve for a few days and then started sliding backwards again. Wasn't eating, wasn't acting like he normally does, etc. Not going to the litter every 15 minutes like he was on Monday - I was afraid he was plugged...

My 4 year year old female has had bladder problems (blood in urine) and has been under vet care. He wants her to eat canned food, but all she wants is dry. I feel so sorry for her. Can anyone tell me what dry food will help and what stores carry it? Or is there some other way to get more water...

My cat has been acting funny the last few months. She meows quite often for no reason- usually when she comes into a room. 2 months ago she started to urinate on the floors or on piles of clothes/towels on the floor. I've noticed that many times, whether she's outside or inside, she squats to...

We currently have a male cat being treated for a urinary obstruction. Urinary catheter and IV drip has been in place for 36 hours. Cat is at the vet clinic - not at home. Today we get a call saying that his bladder had ruptured - presumably due to the urinary catheter not functioning. We...

Our shelter has had some kittens out in foster since December for ringworm. They have been on griseofulvin, I'm not certain if it was stopped or not. The kittens no longer show symptoms of RW, you wouldn't even suspect it to look at them. However, their last two cultures have come back positive. ...

The other day my cat came running from the top of the garden and when I looked at his face he had blood underneath his whiskers on one side of his face. He only goes into the garden and doesn't venture anywhere else. My immediate response was that he had caught himself on something. A bush...

Some of you may remember that during Jasper's escapades at the vet and at the hospital, he managed to come home with a cracked fang tooth and one less claw. I think the claw broke off, kinda like a human nail would break off the bed. I actually remember that the claw nail was bent backward after...

Alino (pronounced Aleen-yo) is now almost 17 years old and very precious to us. We (including Alino) lost his older brother, Amaretto) to Diabetes and Kidney problems just a year ago. He is a blue point Siamese, neautered male, with an incredibly sweet disposition--very cuddly and loving. He has...

Bilbo was recently hit by a car and has lost his sight. I have read that they will learn there surroundings, but my concern is him getting enough water. He tried to drink some last night and about drowned himself. Is there anyone that can give me a tip on how to help him? I have been giving...

What i am wondering is how she will cope in a new house and what i can do to make life easier for her to get about. I already have one...

Hi. Last week upon returning home I found a 7-8 week old blind, dehydrated, 1lb 2oz kitten. It was below zero out and I was not about to leave her outside. Been to the vet twice and probably the states best pet optomologist (sorry for bad spelling). Apparently her mother must have been ill during...

I'm curious, what are some initial tests I can do to see if a cat I have is blind, and what do vets do to test for this? Granted, she's going on seven, so she could be merely apathetic.... -- Dennis Carr - | I may be out of my mind, http://www.dennis.furtopia.org | But...
