Today marked our first vet visit of the year, and it was for sweet Mimi. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to fight the Calicivirus completely on her own, and a secondary respiratory infection set in. The good news is that Mimi has now started a seven-day course of antibiotics and was prescribed Doxycycline to treat the […]
Early this morning, we rushed Gigi to the emergency vet, where bloodwork showed that IMHA had eaten away at her red blood cells, depriving her vital organs of oxygen and causing a sudden deterioration. Despite the severity of her condition, Gigi fought until the very end—even the vet was amazed that she was still standing […]
After a long and exhaustive vet visit, it’s been confirmed that Cheeky has come down with Calicivirus. However, it’s still unclear whether this is the cause of her nausea and poor appetite. The vet explained that the ulcers are mainly on the outside of her mouth, and her throat is not that red or swollen, […]
Cricket won’t be needing more antibiotics— his eyes have fully healed, his upper respiratory congestion is gone, and he’s even gained a little weight over the last two weeks! He’s still just a baby with a sensitive immune system, so stress affects him easily and he’s now taking a supplement to help boost his defenses. […]
Our 9-year-old Mimi went to the vet today after not feeling like herself. The tests so far show some concerning results: For now, Mimi is starting on a special renal diet. Once all the tests are completed, the vet will decide on the best treatment plan and any needed medication. Mimi has always been such […]
Toby (10) was rescued on August 25, 2025. Abandoned, rather docile but very scared and stressed, painfully thin, injured and unable to walk. We rushed him straight to the vet clinic, where he was hospitalized and received urgent care. The vet has confirmed several serious health problems: X-rays showed that Toby suffers from severe arthritis […]
2 weeks into treatment, we took Chloé for a follow-up visit to check on her progress. While the Esophagitis is much better, the Caudal Stomatitis is NOT😿so the vet has opted for a FME (Full Mouth Extraction) to try to get it under control. RELATED: Chloé diagnosed with Caudal Stomatitis and Esophagitis On Wednesday 08/06, […]
After an exhaustive checkup, Chloé was diagnosed with Caudal Stomatitis and Esophagitis, the latter being the cause of her choking on food. While both diseases are manageable, the treatment is rather long and complicated, and the Stomatitis could become chronic (like Angel’s) if we cannot get it under control; thankfully it’s been caught early! Chloé […]
Sadly, we came back from the vet clinic with very bad news. A heart murmur was detected which the vet said could be due to various underlying conditions. Since Gigi is in her senior years and has lost a lot of weight, the vet thought at first it was due to heart disease however after […]
Bloodwork results have confirmed what we suspected; his blood creatinine levels are slightly elevated (1.7) which indicates he is now at the first stage of kidney disease. The use of strong medications to treat his Caudal Stomatitis, for almost five years now, have damaged his kidneys. The fact that he’s already in his senior years […]
