    Winston - Sept/08 - July/13

    Hi all. I've posted several updates about Winston, but today we decided to take him into the vet. He was diagnosed with a squamous tumour about 2 weeks ago and it has grown immensely over these 2 weeks. Winston could no longer close his mouth and was beginning to have trouble chewing, though...

    Another Winston Update

    Hi again all. So Winston has been happily chowing down all week on his soft kibble, but I noticed a bump on his mouth yesterday and was able to get him in today to a new vet, since mine is on holidays. He's got a big red bump on his lower gum line. The vet said he'll test it, but he's...

    Thank You Nancy and SMHufflepuff - Winston Update

    Hi Ladies, Well, he feels the same, but I took one of your suggestions to check his food. I gave him both regular kibble and some with a bit of water to soften it and he has been chowing down more than ever on the softened stuff. I just refilled his bowl cos he almost emptied the first...

    Kind of a strange question - Death of a pet

    Ok, so this may come across as a strange question, but I've never been in the situation, and with the hibernation attempts Winston has been going through lately, it's been making me think. I hope it doesn't come across as offensive, as that's not my intent. I've always put pets down in the...

    2nd Hibernation attempt, not responding to heat

    An suggestions?? I've a heating pad and he's wrapped in fleece, but he's just lying here. Last time he was more active pretty quick after heat. His room has been kept warmer too, at 24-26 degrees. His first attempt was at the beginning of the month. Thanks

    Sleeping through the night??

    Winston has now had 2 separate nights where he appears to have not woken up. His food was untouched (both dry and chicken/meal worm), no poop on his wheel or in his litterbox, etc. Both days after, when I checked him, he seemed normal (grumpy at being woken) and was warm. He recently lost...

    Innova Low Fat Cat Food

    Hi all, I went by my local food shop to pick up another bag of Innova Adult Low Fat Adult Cat food and they said they don't carry Innova because it contains either BHA or BHT (can't remember) which has been linked to cancer. In searching for a new possible food, I also noticed it's at the...

    Adding vitamen A? - Losing weight

    Hi all, I haven't posted in ages, but have a question. Winston went to the vet today as he has gone from about 475 to 415 in the last few weeks. The vet can't find anything wrong with him. In fact, she says he's pretty much perfect health wise. She did notice ridges on his nails, and is...
