Living With IBD
This is The Living With IBD section, designed to help you look at living examples of this disease and other
GI conditions. Each cat has different dietary needs, medications, treatments, etc. As you will see, it's not an
easy road, some thrive and some have a much harder time. But the purpose of this section is to help you
shed some light as to what possibly could have started your kitty's IBD and maybe help you find some
answers and support so that your kitty can live a long, happy and healthier life from this day forward.
If you are a veterinarian or are currently working on research for feline IBD, please take some time to
examine each case study. This section is here to provide you with knowledge outside of your practice or
research center and eventually give you some statistics as to how prevalent this disease is and the
complications from it really are.
We're looking for more cats to document on this site as a way of letting researchers,
universities, veterinarians and the public know what kind of treatments, foods, age group,
etc., that these cats are falling into. If you would like to contribute information on your cat
for the Living With IBD section, please provide the proper information and email it to us at
contact@ibdkitties.net.
1) Save written information in a word or works format and include as an attachment.
2) Include your first and last name & email address, strictly for MY records only and will not be listed on
the website, and your cat's full name (first and last, or last initial if your not comfortable including it).
3) Include your city, state, province, country, etc. Whatever information you feel comfortable providing, as
long as there is some idea of your area.
4) Include two pictures saved as jpgs. of just that one cat. Attach separately from the documented info.
5) Your cat's approximate date of birth, gender and breed.
6) Each condition the cat's been diagnosed with and approximate date of diagnosis for them, not just IBD
but all conditions the cat has besides IBD as they are relevant to treatments.
7) Please do not write in diary form, no need for a day to day account. Write a synopsis of what’s happened
since they first began getting sick, all the way up until now. When the symptoms began, how it was
diagnosed, what tests were run, how it was treated, any and all additional treatments, foods that they were
eating before IBD and food changes since being diagnosed. All medications, holistic treatments, herbs and
supplements.
You can ask your vet for a copy of their records so you can look up the dates and tests that were performed
because that’s important. Feel free to review each kitty's page and choose whatever style you'd like to
submit your info. Your cat will have their own profile page that must be continually updated. Any visits to
the vet for checkups, additional complications, tests, etc. should be sent to us for updating their page. Any
food changes, medications, etc.
Because IBD is an ever-changing condition, we also need to include any news of downturns and setbacks or
especially good news of progress. By including your kitty on this site, you're pledging to help others find any
possible treatments that might work for their cats. And in turn, others become invested in the lives and
progress of your kitty. Your participation in this section is greatly appreciated and will benefit so many
others.
