Kudos to you Natalie for taking in that precious boy! I bet he was so scared. I wish my home was quiet, I would take him in. Keep us posted on him please.

Fletch probably feels terrible when he does that! Is there any reason that he would be on Amoxi indefinitely? And what would the prednisone be for? We just got a 9-yr old blind and declawed cat, and healthy - poor thing was stumbling around in a neighborhood, and only after about 2 weeks it was determined that he cannot see. Nobody was looking for him; obviously abandoned. Now, I'm trying to find him a small and quiet home.he has to be approached quietly and forewarned that you're there.

And I never have. Chicken pork and fish followed a few months later. I certainly have learned newer ways to cook! I am a big fan of Temple Grandin...have two of her books. She is an amazing woman. it was from one of her books that I larned that cats can't calm down as fast as dogs because of their frontal lobes. But I still foret that sometimes and end up getting scratched or bit. That's OK. Fletch is exceptionally grouchy today. He swatted at one of the other cats today and continually growls at me(-; I asked my vet about retesting him and she said it's not necessary since he's already cliically ill. I know after reading everything all of you have posted that you don't agree. that is why I am here, for outside help from people that have years of experience with this. I will have him retested of course. Do you think his grouchiness is from not feeling well, or could he have some neurological issues? I know that he has totally lost his sight and I'm sure that is really scary to him, poor little guy.He's om amoxicillin and they said he could stay on that indefinitely. Do you agree? She also said we could try some prednisone. What are you opinions??
