Max

[Barbara]

Oh Slick how can you think it wouldn't matter to us what happens to sweet Max. He was such a good boy when we picked him up and cuddled him. I hope he wasn't in pain then.
It looks as if Max just has the same problems humans his age would have. I hope the meds help him to be able to better move and not to be in pain.

I'm sorry to read about Max and his pain and he is just as important as any other furkid on this forum. I've not had experience w/either of these conditions, although I did treat one of my dogs who had arthritis years ago. Please know that prayers are going up for Max and for you, too, Slick.

I am so sorry that Max is having pain. I hope the meds help and he is feeling better soon.

***Of course Max's health issues are just as important as any other furbaby on PT! ****

Please keep us posted on Max's progress.

Dear Max! I am so sorry you are having pain. Getting old sucks. I hope the Metacam will help you (I am sure it will). And one more thing, Max, give your mom a SLAP from me thinking that you are not as improtant as the other kitties here. (actually Slick, I imagine you were thinking that this PROBLEM is not as serious as the other illnesses, but your concerns are OUR concerns )

Poor Max. slick, I am so sorry to hear your dear boy is suffering and is in pain. As Jen wrote, getting old sucks. I don't have any knowledge of the conditions he has been diagnosed with and so, I'm sorry, I don't have any advice to offer. Just prayers and positive thoughts that the Metacam will be of a great help in easing his pain.

Please give some kisses and gentle hugs to your beautiful boy from me.

Hi There-max Is Certainly Important To This Cat Forum! As You Are Being His Human. I Hope He Is Feeling Better. It's Hard That Cats Can't Speak With A Voice To Tell Us Exactly-but Of Course They Show Us In Other Ways. Before I Put One Of My Cats Down-for Reaching A Very Old Ageover 21 Or More-i Am Sure He Had Arthritis. I Still Think Of Cuddles And It's Been Almost 4 Years. He Was A White Angora I Think. Cuddles Probably Did Suffer Artritis But Hung In There Until My Boyfriend At The Time And Other Best Friend Could Get Me Prepared To Let Cuddles Go. I Hope Max Is Around For A Long Time. Please Hang In There Susanswatlin518:d:d:d

Aww poor Max. I'm sorry to hear he is having pain like that. I sure hope the meds help.

I don't have any experience with his conditions. In fact I've never heard of spondylosis.

Sending prayers and good thoughts for our sweet boy Max. My Ripley is 16 so I know how hard it is to see our guys show the signs of age.

Oh Slick, Max is just as important to us all as the other furbabies. I'm so sorry to hear that he's in pain, and hiding.

I don't have any experience with the health issues you mentioned, but what Emeraldgreen said in her post, sounds promising. I do hope the drops you give him will help and he'll be able to move around without pain.

Please give him lots of kisses from me - and Fister sends headbumpies, of course.

If you want to talk, you know where to find me.

Big ((((Hugs))))
