No Longer eating
Posted on 2008/02/03 by HolliIiah is old and has been diagnosed with possible bladder carcinoma, arthritis, and cataracs. She has gone down hill quickly since Christmas and is no longer eating. This is very concerning because it is her favorite thing to do. I have tried canned food and nothing. Any suggestions. Also, she is in a great amount of pain in her neck and back from arthritis. Is there any pain releiver that is safe?

Collapse/Fainting
Posted on 2008/02/03 by AlisaThis will be long, but any ideas of what this could be will help us so much!!

possible insect bite
Posted on 2008/02/04 by MonicaMy 5 year old , 15-17lb mixed breed tom cat.Appears to have a sting or small insect bite on his front left arm, between his shoulder and elbow. It is slightly swollen and he does limp a little when he walks, but I can tell it is bothering him.I was wondering what OTC I could give him for pain and swelling? and what should I use to put over the spot? (its very small spot like sting bite I almost could not see it and it feels like a small bump,no blood)
