Is there a possibility she has picked up a parasite? Sometimes it's as simple as the dog licking their paws after going out for a walk, and if you visit dog parks, risks are much, much higher.

Montgomery... Did your pup go a long while before diagnosis? I've always thought that's why Montgomery has never had a normal pink cat bum. It does take effort for him to go to the bathroom. He went for years not even knowing he was going, and now that his stool is normal and his bowel and brain are...

I've heard it said, too, that any cat living long enough will wind up with kidney disease. In my experience, it seems to be true. Montgomery saw four different veterinarians before he met the one who finally dignosed him. The first two were young veterinarians, the second two had been practising for...
