I really have no reason not to get them Oral care. Obviously, now is not the time for Cammy. Mae Ling will get an appointment when Cammy goes back for a checkup.
This new vet opened up literally 2 blocks away(where i just took her). They were very friendly and didn't seem to be bothered by my or the cats needs. I've read so many bad reviews online about veterinarians i'm just glad i found one that seemed to care a little more about the animals than the money.
I inherited these cats. It's almost like having an unplanned child. I was not ready for it, so i just do my best.

It's funny, but I can't remember having any of these types of issues when I was a kid and the family cat was always an indoor/outdoor cat. Never had a catbox nor needed one, and they always seemed as healthy as an ox. Is it just the total captivation of them that's caused all the seemingly ongoing health issues that plague the modern indoor cat? 
After we first got him he ended up with worms. Then a few years ago we took him to the vet because he would also vomit after he ate.
Just turned out he likes to "scarf and barf" by not eating his food slowly enough.

Which is why I don't understand why he is still a chubby bastard.
Although at least now it's much easier to clean up since we have the small one. As soon as he hears "the sound" he gets right up on the other cat so he can eat it as soon as it hits the ground.

I have lost my kitten Frankie and it is making me sad. I am not sure if he is hiding somewhere inside the house, or somewhere outside. Hopefully when I get home from work he will have come out of hiding.

Cats, especially if they are feeling ill, will hide.
I've lost my cat in my own house, and I've lived there for almost 30 years. You'd think I would know all the hiding spots by now.

:( Lost kitties make me sad.
I had a tiny little thing come up to me as i was packing things up outside Sunday. Most friendly skinny cat ever. She wouldn't leave me alone, followed me into the garage. I gave her a bowl of food and she devoured it. I found an ad online about a lost cat that looked just like this one, gone for a MONTH and never found. I called the number and she came to get this cat. Not sure if was hers or not. She said it looked like an exact match but lost a bunch of weight. Never heard anything back from her.

Lost Isabelle (rip at 20) for 14 days. Trapped in a backyard with an electric fence and two dogs periodically released into the yard. Put up signs and a lady on walk spotted her. Went down to the yard, pulled the chain link fence up from the ground and she came running out of the bushes to me. 4 lbs 8 oz - down from 12 lbs., but she rebounded.

earlier this year I lost gibson for what seemed like the longest hour of my life. He's an idiot, wouldnt know how to survive outside. My wife called me just as I locked up at work to head home, saying she couldnt find him an hour prior- so reality is he's been lost for 2 hours.
She called him outside but wouldnt come out or even meow like he does.
I broke many street regulations just getting home, with tears welling up and a lump in my throat, but when I called out his name, that little ******** came out of the bush from behind the shed, scared and shaking. (there is horses on the property behind my backyard).
That feeling sucks so hard.
