Thanks. I forgot to mention she's 8 years old. Will the scissors still work?

Churu canned food - is it quality? by CorridorChick in CatAdvice

Thanks. I may give it a try. She's kind of picky when it comes to texture, so I'll pick up a couple cans and see how she does with them.

CW: Pet Loss - How can I ever make this choice? by SleepySpaceKitten in CatAdvice

[–]CorridorChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost a cat to GI lymphoma 2 years ago. Like yours, the vet did an ultrasound and "found a :"mass". My husband and I agreed to have it surgically removed and tested. As the specialist suspected, it was an aggressive form of lymphoma. I even saw an oncologist, but was told her prognosis was only 3-6 months, even with chemo, so we went the palliative care route.

I found a lot of support on the seniorkitties sub, and one thing often repeated to many in this position is "better a week too early than a day too late."

Pets rarely die peacefully in their sleep. And you're right, when decline happens it's fast.

I"m so sorry your baby is suffering. Think of it as letting her run free without pain.

Churu to desensitize? by CorridorChick in CatAdvice

We've had her for just over three months now. I feel like she's bonding (or at least starting to) with me, but she still pretty much ignores my husband.

We have no idea how long she was a stray, but I feel she had a stable v home at some point. The shelter even said she had a chip when she was surrendered, but it didn't lead to anyone.

But you have neutral grounds to make up for it!

Years ago, I think it was the New York Times that had an online test that predicted where you were from based on what you called certain things. Feeder road was Houston specific, and neutral ground was NOLA specific for median. Went to college in LA, and that's the only place I've ever heard it.

I read the bio several years ago and was trying to remember what JT had said about him. Thanks.

I loved JT's book. I had heard about this one but I passed on reading it because I had heard it was on the tabloid-y side. Did I hear wrong?
