    Yes Hi, I'll Have A Nice Twist Tie With A Side Of Cocktail Umbrella

    Last week, Miss Demeanor threw up a wadded-up twist tie. Fearing for her life, I took her to the vet for x-rays and they found no harm and no other items nestled in her greedy little gullet. We both walked away unscathed, and I with a slightly lighter wallet. Things like this happen from time to...

    Recommending a vet in Modesto, CA

    Dr. Drew Waymire at Banfield in Modesto, Ca is one of the best vets we have ever been to. He absolutely loves cats and he even has one at home. He is very understanding with concerns, takes time to answer any and all emails, and even takes time between appointments to say hi to his patients if...

    Taking him to the vet?

    Hi there! I will be getting my first sphynx cat in 25 days, and I'm trying to do as much ahead of time planning so that everything goes as smoothly as possible. Should I be taking him to the vet as soon as I get him for a checkup?

    Our first trip to the vet...

    So, I took Quincy in for his first visit with his new vet and things could not have gone better. I had no idea what to expect or how he would react... I know he had been to the vet several other times but not with us or without his litter mates. Well, once again he was brilliant! He was so calm...

    can anyone help?

    Someone is rehoming a Sphynx because she needs an emergency spay and they cant afford the bill ($500) are there any organizations that will help with the bill? If the bill isn't paid the kitty will have to be euthanized :( I really want to adopt her but I cant afford that bill as of right now...

    Pippin is getting big and extremely hyper

    So we went to go see Pippin and her siblings on Tuesday, she is clearly the biggest in the bunch now. My little chunky monkey is half a pound bigger than the smallest kitten. I'm so in love with her belly and paws though they're are the cutest ever. So for everyone to see I have pictures from...

    Heart issue (Not HCM, but similar in some ways)

    I was adopted by my sphynx about a year and a half ago; before deciding on a cattery, I had waited for a sphynx to become available at a shelter (never happened) and had done research about HCM and other things specific to the breed. My breeder's cats all come with a health guarantee against...

    Recommending a vet in (South) bay area, CA

    I would like to recommend Dr. Michelle at Arroyo Animal Clinic in Sunnyvale, CA. They have several sphynx clients and Dr. Michelle is really clued up on the breed. She knew right off the bat that we couldn't use ketamine for the neuter She lets the vet tech know when something is just a sphynx...
