The vet said that 99% of the time it's HCM but they dont' know if it's dilated or restrictive so can't treat it. I also learned from this vet what...
She is a feral cat and is only tame to me and to 2 others, one of whom passed away. At the vet the other day her respirations were 66 to 72/min and...
I've been doing a lot of thinking over the past few days at work, and I've realized that the best course of action, all things considered, is to wait...
I forgot to explain. The other vet in this same practice gave me excuses for NOT taking vital signs because she knew they would be elevated. But...
The vet finally called yesterday afternoon and said she wanted to draw blood. Got that done this morning and vital signs. A different vet saw her...
No I won't make any hasty decisions and I certainly want to give this plenty of thought. I'll proceed with the senior panel tomorrow and see if that...
:( Sooo, it seems that I could spend a whole bunch of money on her for tests and meds only to have her die a few weeks later anyway? All this costs...

Honey is still amongst the living! On the one hand it wasn't as bad as I thought, but there's still some bad news. They got an xray which compared...
I'm really scared this is it for her. I'm just scared. It's too soon after Oreo passed. Honey is my baby. I'm really sad for her.
Thank you!
This was Honey in October last year, begging me for food.
Here is a pic of Honey from a few years ago. She loves my tennis shoes.
This can't be happening again, not so soon! Honey is Oreo's "cousin" and one of my rescue kitties born in 2004 a little older than Oreo. She's...
