When completed, this blog will help you understand your cat a little better.
My hope is that through sound veterinary advice and recommendations we can help dispel the myths about cat care and create healthier, longer, and happier lives for these constant friends and companions. As a feline veterinarian, I'll guide you through the happiest and most troubling times with your cat. You will be able to post questions, learn when to seek help from your veterinarian, and master the subtle art of cat companionship!
Stay tuned.

What makes a cat howl like a banshee or tropical bird? My almost 19-year-old cat is basically healthy, but periodically (mostly at night) she starts howling like a deranged toucan. I run into the room to see what is agitating her, she stops and then meows normally. Sometimes she starts the howling in her sleep.
Do cats get dementia? Could she just have the age-related koo-koos?
My cat Mr. Hata says, "The truth? You can't handle the truth!"
I am really looking forward to reading this blog. You are one hell of a great vet.
If I can help you figure out Blogger, let me know.. you know where to find me.

I just had the most amazing experience with my vet and wanted to share.
I brought my cat in for sneezing and runny eyes. I never thought it was anything big since it was allergy season anyways but my vet insisted on pursuing diagnostics.
The vet did an arterial blood gas to confirm metabolic acidosis and thus, a herpes virus outbreak diagnosis. We went ahead and did an exploratory / TECA just to ensure no other concerns would arise. To be sure to control any infection that might arise from said procedures the vet put my cat on daily doxorubicin injections to cover the basis.
Basically my cat is doing better than ever thanks to this protocol and I highly suggest implementing this into your hospital treatments.
