In that pic it looks like she could be not feeling great, cats tend to pull their whiskers straight back and hold their heads down like that when they don’t feel well, and not eating is obviously also not normal. Go back to the vet!
My cat recently died of gastrointestinal large cell lymphoma, he was 12. He had IBD (diarrhea mainly) for most of his life, it took a 2-3 years of flare ups to find the right way to get it under control for him but after that it was well controlled.
Originally the vet did an ultrasound and...
There have been in vitro studies that found changes in cells after applying PEMF to them, like this one: Pulsed electromagnetic fields accelerate normal and diabetic wound healing by increasing endogenous FGF-2 release - PubMed where they exposed human endothelial cells grown in culture to...
Don’t spend your hard earned money on it. There’s some evidence in lab and in vitro studies that PEMF could create changes in cells, but it hasn’t translated into any good evidence that devices like the loop do anything (positive or negative) for animals.
It could be acid reflux related, you could try giving 1/4 of a tablet of pepcid (famotidine) and see if that helps at all. Sometimes vomiting itself can make the stomach inflamed and irritated which leads to more vomiting. Controlling the acid a bit with an acid blocker like pepcid can help the...
Human children and cats are not the same.
Tylenol for example, something children take all the time across the world for fevers, can kill cats even in small doses.
Assuming that’s Perth, Australia it’s probably remdesivir. Vets in Australia somehow got permission to prescribe remdesivir for FIP- it’s a prodrug of GS-441524 so it works similarly.
I mean it could be the non-clumping litter, if little bits of pee soaked litter are getting left in the box because it’s hard to scoop every last bit when it doesn’t clump, they could start to smell more.
it also might be the box, as the plastic gets scratched slightly stuff can build up inside...
Go on Facebook and join the group FIP Warriors 5.0, they can get you all the info you need.
I first joined the group when my cat was diagnosed with FIP more than 2 years ago. One of the very first success stories in the group was an oriental shorthair from South Africa with very advanced dry FIP...
Cats are much softer right after they give themselves a bath! Their fur gets rougher and a little spiky looking when it’s greasy, grooming removes the dirt and distributes the oil throughout their coat to make it much softer
Has she ever taken famotidine (pepcid)? Since you mentioned the omeprazole helped slightly, it could be a reflux issue. Pepcid works well for some cats, you could ask you vet about it.
Like I said, this logic is a honestly concerning to me. The fact that a cat did not choose to be your pet does not mean that cutting their teeth off is incapable of hurting them. That’s completely illogical and pretty cruel.
If this thread were a person it would be old enough to vote by now so...
“It’s not cruel because it’s elective”
I’m sorry, I know this is an ancient thread but I got a notification about this and I have to respond to this…
There is no logic in this statement whatsoever. First, it isn’t elective at all from the point of view of the creature the procedure is being...
