hello! Baldwin had his hernia repair about a week and a half ago now. The incision site is healing very nicely, however there is a lump/ping pong ball looking thing under neath skin. Vet says it's from him being too active (ugh, not wrong there.), and to try to slow him down a bit. I'm doing my...

Hi all, Baldwin got neutered, microchipped, and had his hernia repaired yesterday. I set him up in my (medium sized) closet with lots of bedding, a litterbox, and food and water (later on). He was NOT very happy being confined in that space, however with my bed being tall and his cat tower and...

My cat and I have just gone on a long mysterious illness oddysy. For about 5 months the only thing I heard from 4 vet offices is "Well, all of your test results came up negative, we don't know what's wrong with him". Not a moment too soon I lucked out and found Laurelhurst Veterinary Hospital...
