My Vet told me that in the past he would routinely refer cats with heart murmurs to a specialist. But, now, that is not the case since they are seen with murmurs on a routine basis. I'm glad you had this fellow seen by a Specialist. Hopefully, he doesn't have an underlying heart condition and can fi...

I just emailed and the Chi is still needing a home. She is adorable !!!

Oh, they are adorable!! There would never be a dull moment with those two. On the news a while back I saw baby Chi's who were missing their front legs too.
If you watched the video the rescue also has a baby albino Great Dane in a cart. Sounds like a great rescue to care so much !!!

Dear Beth, I am so sorry about Waffles. He was sure a lucky fellow !! But, then, you likely feel very honored and lucky to have had him in your life. Our special needs friends can have such a dramatic affect on our lives. I remember that you and Waffles were here when I joined. May your many memorie...

Sabrina was so lucky to have a mom like you. Special Cats like her only come along once in a life time. May your many wonderful memories bring you comfort . PS: Hopefully as time passes you will open your heart to another needy soul. There are so many that never know the love of a family who truly c...

Oh, Bendy they are adorable!!! How old are they? Did you get them from a shelter?
I love their little growls. LOL They sound like ferocious little lions!!!
Congratulations !!!

Jaime my cat with paralysis was on bethanechol and phenoxybenzamine years ago and she had the same reaction. So, I took her off everything but Robaxin. But, a few years ago the vet talked me into putting her back on a lower dose because she was difficult to express. He suggested going with half the ...

Glad to hear your little guy made it through being HBC. So, many never get a second chance. I have several suggestions. 1. Phenoxybenzamine and bethanechol are bladder meds. They work together with one relaxing the bladder spincter and the other one working to contract the bladder. When Ace begins t...

Glad your little Tyler is doing so well. Have you tried the treat balls they might keep him busy.
Shih Tzu's can have the greatest personalities. Like you, I can't imagine not having adopted my little boy Angel. /Jean

Did they make it home?

Well, hopefully they will be normal in that regard. When I agreed to take the 2 kittens with Manx syndrome the rescue talked me into a third little Manx who supposedly had hind limb deformities but was normal. When Chynna arrived she was terribly impacted with stool. I thought she would never get cl...

Bendy they are very cute. Do they have any issues with incontinence due to their hand limb deformities?

Hi Buddy's mom, Thanks for writing us !!! Glad to hear that Buddy is easier to express. That one thing must make life with your doggy so much more manageable! Does Buddy make a good study partner ? He looks like he would make a good snuggler. Wow $1000.00 for one tooth. What does the vet want to do ...

Hi Luna's mom, Congratulations on your new baby ! You are a special person to take in such a needy kitty !! I have a cat and I have been expressing her bladder since she was 6 weeks old. Jaime is now 14 years old. She has hind limb paralysis. She has lived this long because I make her bowel and blad...

Don't feel like a failure. You have had your son expressing him and Zula is still a happy boy. Spend time with the vet, vet techs, your son and also watch the expressing vidoes on this site. Three of mine are on Prazosin,Robaxin and Bethanechol. I couldn't express them without their meds. They have ...
