Title: Chromes diease in cats
Post by: Gail Bengal Slave on August 17, 2007, 14:15:49 PM

Does anyone know anything about Chromes diease in cats?.

Jane who works with my hubby, her cat Auther has it, he was first diagnoised as having diabitis. But now he has ben diagnoised with chromes. Also she is going away on holiday and needs a cat sitter to go in and make sure he has his tablets and injections. Does anyone know of any cat sitters in Nuneaton?.

I think it is known as IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) in cats.

Crohns and IBS are 2 different conditions.
I cant help in regards to a pet sitter either. Has she tried asking her vet surgery if any of the staff there have used one who they could reccommend?
