We love them. care for them and in the end let them go. He is now happily

Hi. I remembered today that you should look into Cushings Syndrome. I do
not know if cats get it, but dogs, horses, and humans do. It comes from too much

Sebastian's depo was orginally started because he has red, infected gums.His gumshavebeen a problem since he was born.
Do you give him CoQ10? It helps with gum problems. I give it to my
positives every morning mixed in baby food with other supplements. Has the
depo helped with it a lot?
I would really take Sebastian to a board-certified internist about his
problems. I really would think all these symptoms
refuse to believe that. His blood work was good and I want to try every option to try and help his legs. Has anyone seen similar problems in their positive kitties? Sebastian was on a high dose of depo medrol for about a year and a half. This may be the cause of the weakness. I just need help. I feel
There is NO way that his weakness is the direct result of his leukemia
virus, because all the leukemia virus does is weaken the immune system to other
diseases. So if it is the result of a disease, it is some other disease--
