Reba, thank you for interesting link... I appreicate it very much.
Here link, I would like to share about shots in my post of last year.

Yes the vet taught me how to take care of cats and how I can tell their symbol etc. If it doesn't work up to 3 days then check with the Vet.
Yes, we brushed our cats everyday to aviod their hair to everywhere. They loves it except Kim. Kim won't let anyone to brush her except me... also Fine-toothed sometimes.
The vet don't like us to cut cat's claw (nail). We let her to do for us... It cost us nothing.

Accord your link
Often, people believe declawing is the only way to address inappropriate scratching. However, it can be a painful procedure for your cat, and it is almost always unnecessary. Cats can be easily trained to scratch only in appropriate areas, such as well-placed scratching posts.

Yes I know. All of my cats don't have declaw. Declaw are banned in Europe countries and other many countries. Train cats to scratch the posts is not hard work.
I used http://www.petshop.de/prodpics/3/10787g.jpg on cats to avoid to vomit from hairballs.

I find interesting after read your link about Don't check a cat's nose to see if it's cold and damp—contrary to myth, this is not a sign of health. I was like wow because the vet taught me how to know cat's symbol is check their noses... not just their noses but their movement...

Your vet has probably already informed you that milk is not healthy for cats, especially when it gives them diarrhea.
|
Yes I aware that the milk is not good for cats but once a week is okay. It's horrible smelly at their litterbox...  My all cats love milk or cream but they have it at Sundays only for treat. They have daily water and one milk or cream in morning at their breakfast.

That might soothe her pain but you have to be careful that she doesn't get an infection from the mud.
|
She did with it several months ago and okay with her... I would take her to the vet if something wrong with her... but she doesn't but lump (see the pictures). The vet examined her from head to claw including eyes, ears, tail, etc and said that Sussi is healthy but just lump... and said that it's good tumor - no operation necassary because she is old.

Of course, your own vet can give you the best information.

Yes, I would ask my vet for advice if I am unsure.
