RE: michelle/nina/belinda/marilyn - my minnie
The vet can show you or you can easily learn I have a bunch of sub-q fluid bags that I bought for my CRF kitty, Hannibal who passed away a week ago.. I can give you some bags if you need, too.

Re: michelle/nina/belinda/marilyn - my minnie
It's hard to say what would help without knowing what is wrong with her. She needs a diagnosis. There are so many things that positive cats can get, and most have treatments of one sort or another that at least sometimes work. Michelle In a message dated 7/2/2006 12:23:05 P.M.

Re: michelle/nina/belinda/marilyn - my minnie
I want to help on the water thing - but I am in no way an expert on this. I have 8 cats...weights in pounds are 8, 11.5 ,11 ,10 ,12 ,17.5 ,9, 22lbs (yeah - I know 22lbs is HUGE but he looks like a small puma and has big bones). In a day, the kids drink from 3-4 cups of water a day. They are all very active though. I'm guessing this is like 1/3rd to 1/2 cup of water a day on average. Maybe more in summer. I'll let the experts correct me but if I were going to guess on my gang here, I would think you'd do well to give 1/4-1/3 cup of water a day. That's just a guess and in no way expert. Cats seem to live on the edge of dehydration. In a message dated 7/2/2006 11:23:05 A.M.
