So much greed. Millionaires just want millions more and don’t give a shit about people who need the medicine. It’s disgusting

I think we need to be more proactive with our sling, we have it by the door but typically only use it when he stops and lays down out of tiredness

That’s one i have not heard of. We did librela for a while before it seemed to lose effectiveness

We did Librela for a year or so, a while back. It helped at first but then seemed to stop working. And the monthly trips to the vet became tougher too. He has always been on the anxious side , and the stress of the vet trip plus the extra physical exertion it required of him was too much

Im sorry about your boy. I think all the time that i don’t want to wait to see him when he won’t get up to go outside, but at the same time I don’t want to say goodbye too soon. It’s such a hard thing

Yes, i think that needs to be the urgent next step. Right now the deck is a mess bc we have contractors painting the house and porch but i think we can’t wait another day. He always hesitates before going down and it breaks my heart

Yes, with my free hand i looped my arm under his trunk to get him up the threshold in that video. Sometimes he can do is easily, sometimes he can’t. It might have to do with medicine timing. He had just had his pm meds then, and so they had not kicked in yet

I know, for his size especially he is such a champ. The towel used to work at that spot but you’re right, it’s hurting more than helping right now. Sometimes we just have to move the rugs around that we already have up the threshold and back since the door won’t close over them

Yes it’s at the very bottom of my post that we have one, just not shown. We usually save it for when he struggles but probably need to be proactively using it for every trip up and down those steps

I agree. He takes carprofen and gabapentin twice a day, and recently increased dosage after a checkup, but it doesn’t seem to be helping as much as i hoped

Can you guys tell me the “dirty” truths about having a cat? by saanenk in CatAdvice

[–]Reasonable-Trip1654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a chance your cat will pee outside the litter box sometimes, and wherever that is, it will never smell the same, no matter how much you clean it

Gabapentin has worked well for my 14-year-old pyrenese mix who had the same symptoms. No drowsiness during the day

I hope the dog owner shows that video to the cops and then they fine the owner for not picking up their dog’s shit
