As much as I try not to overuse antibiotics, in cases of animals with
suppressed immune systems, one should be vigilant not to allow any infection
to take more hold because it may take more antibiotics in the long run. If
gums are inflamed, first sign of anything more serious, and if the vet
Hi - I'm new and have been reading the threads but I don't seen anything that
addresses my situation. We have an 8 month old kitty that tested positive for
FIV (or was it FELV?) at a young age, and we plan to get him retested. He has

I agree, when they are sick, it is off to the vet ASAP. Then if I had plans, I
cancel. People who know how you feel about your furbabies will understand. My
