I took her to the vet as well, but my wife sort of insisted on this.

Just trying everything, I guess.

I was not criticizing you Like I said, we tried the same kind of thing in hopes that it would safe Mr Pickles. I hope your cat will be better soon whatever it is suffering from.
I just don't like those kind of "docs" who make promises that they can help and want a shitload of money for questionable practises What we kept doing after that visit was feeding our kitty grain free cat food cause we see the logic behind that. At our visit, the doc's assistant held Mr P and channeled his energies through her arm. She would hold little bottles with stuff against him and the doc pressed her arm down to see if the cat has some reaction on it :fp: I thought it was a waste of money.

No worries. I didn't take it as you criticizing me (nor would I likely care if you were ) .

Long story: My in-laws visited last weekend, and my very sensitive cat (Molly) pissed on their knapsack. My wife pitched a fucking fit and said something to the effect of that she's had it with Molly and threatened to get rid of her -- at which point, I got on Craigslist and started looking for a studio apartment for Molly and myself (in front of my in-laws and children, mind you). So that happened.

I don't fuck around when it comes to my cat.

At any rate, when cooler heads prevailed and after Molly had pissed on our bed the following Tuesday, thereby pretty much assuring us that she was likely not acting out but had a medical issue that needed to be treated, I made a vet appointment and acquiesced for my wife to make an appointment for reiki with the understanding that she would never again even think of mentioning getting rid of Molly.

I will say the vet techs have made this whole ordeal ten times worse than it should be. They tried for two days/two vet trips to get a sterile urine sample (the second day keeping poor stressed-out Molly in a cage all day) and failed. Then they sent me home with some Nosorb to collect a sample at home (which is what I fucking suggested in the first fucking place!!!) and lost the sample when I returned it to them. Not to worry, though, they comped me a free cup of Nosorb to collect the next sample, which has yet to be collected. When it is, we're walking back to the lab with them to make sure they don't fuck it up again. :x

All the reiki lady did was show me some ways to pet Molly that might calm her down and then "sent her some energy," which she says she felt was "received." Not sure about that, but Molly did hiss and swat the shit out of her twice.

She also dug our posters, so she can't be all that bad. :thumbup:
