Marie, I am so sorry. I am already feeling sad remembering how hard it is to say goodbye to sweet kitties that have gone on ahead. You can be proud...
Woo hoo, go Pig! Safe return home! Bodie got SRT in October 2017. It was at Medvet in Chicago so no road trip. It looks like fun (and work!) though!...
Hi Ken and Squeaky, Bodie was diagnosed with acromegaly. His number was 505. I got some good advice from JeffJ and also from Wendy and Neko. Wendy...
Little Dude is sooo cute! I love gingers. We're almost retired too, just late bloomers! He is already taking Zobaline and amlodipine for hypertension.
Haa, I didn't think of an Austrian accent but I did want him to feel fierce and brave. Rraaarr! Yes, that's my Bode, the food beggar, pees like a...
Thank you Wendy, You've melted a lot of my anxieties. The impatient internist called me today and, after I asked him directly, admitted that an MRI...
The regular vet suggested I go to Medvet and have him checked for everything because we just couldn't get Bodie regulated. Everything came back OK...
Thanks Sienne, I had forgotten about them. I have been there but not with Bodie. It looks like the second vet on the website is Thompson, is that the...
Thank you Wendy, I'll go and look on the Prozinc board. The internal medicine vet said that Bodie was only the second acromegaly cat in his career...
Thank you so much for your information packed response, Wendy! I have been lurking and wondering what to do because my regular vet is a bit...
Hi Acrocat moms and dads, I'm a new member of the club. Bodie's IGF on Sept 12 was 505 nnmol. I haven't been able to find too many treatment options...
tuna juice! Tracey, did you know that there's a yahoo group for feline asthma? They helped me tremendously with my GA asthmatic cat, Beny. I googled...
I would still keep your wits about you with the internist specialist. I just took Bodie to a internist specialist with valet parking (bah!) and when...
There's not much detail about exactly what makes a 5 star vs a 3 star. I thought it was interesting that grain free might mean they're putting other...
Has anyone heard of the Clean Label Project? http://www.cleanlabelproject.org/category/product-list/dog-cat-food/cat-food/ They rate cat and dog food...
Those strips seem to also have sensors in them that can tell when you are stressing about wasting them or you're down to your last few. :) Well done...
Sorry to hear about your heart cat, Cinnamon. You were a wonderful cat momma.:bighug:
Thank you. It's a bit overwhelming and what seems like a no-brainer wasn't obvious to me. I think I thought food was the anti-insulin but it's not...
Thank you, this is all great advice. Definitely do the bedtime test.
