Hello everyone! A little over a week ago I noticed that my cat has some swelling on his gums. I don’t know if it’s been there for a longer period of time, so I can’t tell. I also don’t know if he had his tooth there before or if he lost it and it could be caused by him losing his tooth. I was...

I’m not worrying about his tooth falling out. He has only a few small teeth left, because he lost some when he was outside fighting with other cats. My vet also checked that and said everything looks fine. Right now he does have some plaque on his teeth, so I will be taking him to the vets for a...

Yes, I will definitely do that. I’ll monitor him for a couple of days and then if I don’t see it getting better, I’ll talk to my vet!

Thank you to everyone who gave information and shared some kind words! I’ll just hop in to inform you that Simba was totally okay after! I was waiting for him to throw up or have some diarrhea or abdominal discomfort, but none of that has happened. He was just totally okay. Apparently, he is...

Hello everyone! The only reason I am writing this is needing reassurance, really. My heart cat, Simba, will turn 7 in June. He is a healthy and happy cat. A few days ago I noticed this (picture attached) and objectively it looks like he had lost his front tooth and it caused a little bit of...

Thank you! Simba is still totally himself, eating and playing and everything. I do expect him to throw up or at least have diarrhea, we’ll see. I will definitely keep an eye on him. I got really scared because I’ve seen a lot of information about mould causing neurological symptoms and even...

Thank you. Your reply soothed my anxiety a bit. He is still acting fine and he just ate and now playing. The soup was definitely rancid, because I threw it away a week ago and it smells really nasty. I don’t know why he ate it as well. My vet still hadn’t responded but I got a consult with...

Hello everyone! My cat just got into the garbage and ate some mouldy food. It was some week old soup. There isn’t a lot of mould but there is some. He ate approximately 2 table spoons or so I can’t tell for sure. It happened like 20 minutes ago and for now he acts fine. I can’t take him to the...

Hello there. Almost two weeks ago I noticed two scabs on one of my cats’ head. They weren’t puncture wounds, they weren’t open wounds at all, just small scabs. They didn’t look like a bite or any kind of puncture wound at all. I do believe that at first there was one scab, then the other one...

Hi there! Cats tend to have warts on their head a lot for some reason. It can also be a cyst. If it’s not growing, doesn’t seem painful and isn’t bothering your cat — it’s great! Even if it’s a mast cell tumor, 80% of those are benign. Especially in cats so young. I can totally understand your...

It is definitely a nipple. If you look through fur on his stomach really thoroughly, you will find another 7 of them.

Hi there! Yes, it’s totally normal. It’s called seroma. It will go away on it’s own in a week or even less. If it becomes infected, keeps growing or won’t go away after a week, you should definitely take her to the vets for them to check. Until then, you do not need to worry. It’s common and...

It seems like you will need to use an inhaler twice a way. Once again, it might take time and effort but it’s worth it. It wasn’t that hard to teach my cat to tolerate it. Each time it’s like 20 seconds, so it’s not long. About what else you can do to help your cat. Changing the litter to a...

Yes, inhalers are also steroids but they are way more safe. They only affect lungs, they are not absorbed in the blood so no side effects on the whole body at all.

Don’t settle for prednisone. Steroids in injections or pills do tend to have a better and faster effect but they also can damage liver and kidneys among other not pleasant side effects. There are a lot of them. Try inhalers. At least it’s safe and steroids in form of inhalers only affect lungs...
