    I agree, thank you for adding that part about leaving her. I think what I’ll do is come into the forum and ask advice before finalizing anything. You guys have helped so much, I just want to get the most opinions to make the right decisions! My appointment at Long Beach is at 3

    Today she ate, we gave her some cactus pads and she’s moving in the garden. She is active for maybe 20 meters then gets tired but she hasn’t given up. How to know if intestine is neurotic?

    Didn’t know this is what my 2021 would entail but I’m determined to mend her back to health. Thank you so much, she doesn’t enjoy her baths and I can see why it gets that name! Will update. The cactus pads seem like a great idea, the vet suggested cat laxative.. what do you think?

    Hi again, When she does her eye thing she inverts her head and eyes and it does seem like pushing. She lifts up her back with her two legs and her front is lower, if that is bearing down I think that’s what she is doing. She will stay under the light and finding a new one ASAP! I think her eyes...
