I have a 20yo blue-point siamese that now needs daily subcutaneous
fluids. Does anyone have a trusted online source for lactated ringers
fluids they use? I have had unsatisfactory service from Vet Med Direct
and am looking for another source.

I picked up a few cans at the grocery today; flavors I couldn't find
in my monthly shopping at PetSmart. On the cans was an announcement
that they're discontinuing the seafood filet variety. I can't find
anything on their web site about this. Mine like them a lot, even

and everyone in cat land.
Hope you all sleep good, hope all the cats are warm and fed.

Chooch had his MRI scan on Tuesday and I visited the hospital yesterday to
get the results. Not good news I'm afraid. The tumour is pretty massive
internally. The lump on his shoulder is really the "tip of the iceberg".

against my hands. After that I noticed a small cylindrical thing on my

talkin to you,Sylvesters mom. The point that Im making is that you
shoudnt waste your time conversing with other people about such an

Hi, I am new here but I have a real problem. My home is inundated with
animals and they all get along fine and I have never had a problem, but this

Sylvester's mom here again.  I was wondering if any of you have long

He (she) seemed a bit skittish so I punted. I think the sight of the
carrier made him nervous. Maybe he's been in one before.
But I'm more determined than ever that he move in. He is so like Espy.
The same basic coloring (whitish face with dark around it, and a

I posted a month ago re: our Insane tortie.
We have had Feliway for about two and a half weeks now, and we are
seeing improvement.
Frankie the Insane has become mellower. She seems to crave more

I am just heartbroken.  My beloved cat died very suddenly, quickly and
unexpectedly about 48 hours ago.  I'm doing some web surfing to try to
make sense of what happened.
She would have been 15 years old next month, and she was perfectly
