Wellp, Dr. Kursch says Marijke is fine. She turned off all the lights and shined bright lights in her eyes and said they seem OK even if they are a tad bit uneven. She weighs 5 lbs and is a good weight for her size.

If I may ask, about what does everyone pay for regular vet check-ups? I've always thought I get a good deal, but I've never bothered to shop around for vets b/c we haven't had any problems with ours. If I am getting a good deal, I'll stay where I'm at (or soon I get very cheap rates from the Humane Society for working there).

^ Glad she is okay.

I always thought that if you're happy with your vet, it's a good idea to stay. Kind of like the dentist. Once you find one you like, better to stay safe than try someone new and be sorry

 

[Sicy]

Wow all she did was look at her eyes? Well I'm glad she's ok.

My vet charges $45 for office visit and then extra for whatever they do.

Ok, I've finally uploaded a couple of pictures, forgive their size...

This is Nip (as in Catnip), he's 7 and very fluffy...

This is Sherman (we call him Shmerm ), he is 6 and the "Queen" of the household (notice the U2 videos behind him )

This is Sid (or Obsidian or Sid Vicious, either one - we call him siddles ) hes 4. My wife and sister-in-law found him in a parking lot when he was a kitten, they thought he was a rat

OMG Nip

 

[Sicy]

Aw they are gorgeous

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Thanks you guys

Lies, I'm so glad to hear that Marijke is okay. Our kitties are indeed our babies. My vet charges around $50 for checkup, then extra for shots.

Sicy and elevated_u2_fan, beautiful cats! Nip looks very much like my niece Jenn's cat, Murphy, who is part Maine Coon Cat.

A couple new pics:

HellKitten (Spunky Butt) and Rickenbacker

Maxwell. He's quite thin right now as he's a bit off kilter on his thyroid meds. Working on getting him back on track, and it's quite a challenge (he's being an absolute punk about taking his pills.)

 

[Lila64]

Lies - glad Marijke is alright
Sicy - as always
elevated - That pic of Nip is adorable!!! They are all
indra - I love that name (Spunky Butt!). All 3 are so

Yep. She messed with her eyes for a while, then looked at my adoption papers which rule out leukemia. Since she has no other symptoms, it can't be FIP or Homer's.

everyone's cats are so cute! glad Marijke is ok too

I'm glad she's ok too Cat's seem to have a lot of eye problems though most are not serious... My little one had Chlamydia for a while during last year but she's ok now... The poor had difficulties in standing the light on her left eye and had some secretions. But it wasn't severe and could be treated...

 

[BonoIsMyMuse]

My vet charges $33 for an initial exam and $28 for a follow-up appointment. Most visits cost more because of shots, medicine, or tests, but I feel like they're reasonable. The cost of living in my area is very low, which is probably why these prices are lower than ones others have mention.

I love my vet. Her office is only for cats (though she did see my friends' bunny one time too), and she's always very thorough.

I'm glad Marijke is okay

My cat came home today with a hole in her ear! We have absolutely no idea how it got there, but it was bloody and looked painful.. she'll be going to the vets tomorrow.

A couple new pics:

HellKitten (Spunky Butt) and Rickenbacker

Which one is SpunkyButt, and which one is Rickenbacker? The yellow one looks a lot like our Fergus, who really knows how to sleep comfortably!

Callie does pretty well, too!

Fergus's latest masterpiece:

 

[BonosLil'Pal94]

Partygirlvox- i really hope your kitty is ok!

 

[Liesje]

Great pics everyone! Especially that TP mess

My kitties today

"Maaike" snoozing

New best buds

Streeeeeeetch

Becks enjoying it being 80 degrees instead of snowing like normal

Posh begging for a tummy rub

Something really important must be under there

Marijke waiting for the trash compactor truck to come back (she can't decide whether she's enthralled or completely terrified)

 

[kellyahern]

Fergus's latest masterpiece:

My sister has to keep the door to the bathroom at her apartment closed at all times . . . or that happens .

 

[BonosLil'Pal94]

I your kitties Liesje!!!

We've taken to putting the TP in the medicine chest on on top of the shower stall to avoid temptation.

Fergus's latest masterpiece:

Rickenbacker is the yellow one and Spunky Butt is the grey tabby w/white. Spunky actually lives next door (duplex) with my brother, but he likes to visit my cats sometimes. Ricky is the only one of mine who really likes him although a few others kinda like him (and one -- Miss Myrrh -- hates him and will chase and beat him whenever she can. He's afraid of her....most of the cats are afraid of her. She's a heller. ).

I call Ricky a noodle cat because he's usually so relaxed he will just drape when you pick him up. From the way he's sprawled out there, it looks as if Fergus might very well be a noodle cat too! I have to laugh at his "masterpiece" because just recently Ricky has started to shred rolls of paper towels. When I mentioned this to my brother he said that Spunky Butt is a toilet tissue shredder. I think Spunky is a bad influence on Ricky!!

Thanks, Indra. Yes, Fergus is a noodle cat. He's so huge that when I'm holding him and he wants down, his long legs windmill in all directions.
