Update:
He has hydrocephalus. It could be congenital but most likely secondary, due to head trauma, disease or inflammation. He receives drugs to remove the excess fluid in his brain now, hopefully they will work. If they won't the only option is surgery. It's dangerous for a kitten and I don't...
The fact that he still eats is the only thing that keeps my hopes up, it's hard for him to eat off his bowl but he happily eats off my finger. I hope he won't lose his appetite.
Also he's scheduled for MRI early in the morning, I'm really scared I hope it's something curable. I've been reading...
Unfortunately head tilt is not the only problem. He has serious balance issues and he can't clean or scratch himself. Re-inflammation of the eye was expected, he should either have the lens luxation or removal surgery, but we can't do any of these in his present condition.
I've had one FIV+ cat and multiple negative cats living together. My FIV cat passed two years ago (sweet boy in my profile picture) and diagnosed two years prior to his death but we suspect he had it for years because he'd always been getting sick. To my knowledge, my other cats never got the...
Update
After today's appointment the vet said FIP is unlikely because his bloodwork is very good, he eats and he played yesterday. Unfortunately he's low on energy today, he doesn't play anymore but still eats. He's eye with glaucoma is inflamed again, I'm hoping his low energy is a result of...
Thank you I hope he will and I hope the results would suggest something other than FIP. I can't believe he's sick he's jumping around like a little kitten right know. I'll update.
Thank you FeebysOwner, unfortunately head tilt and and overall balance problems are symptoms that are seen in dry form. The vet didn't say it's absolutely FIP, he said it could be but I'm still freaking out because it's a death sentence. I will press for MRI tomorrow. As I said I didn't have any...
Hi everyone,
My cat Shiro is 5-6 months old. His head started to tilt yesterday and he started to experience difficulty walking. He can't balance himself, he sometimes drops to floor when he tries to jump or run, and now he has a continious, severe head tilt. Of course I rushed him to vet...
Thank you so much for the suggestions :) The kitten is 6 months old now and mostly got past his biting and driving-me-crazy stage. We moved in with my mother two months ago and she has four cats, one of them has adopted Asuka (the kitten) somewhat educated him too. Now he released me but still...
I have a 3 months old orphaned kitten, he has came to me when he was just 3 weeks old. He is biting a lot. I know this is normal kitten behavior, that he wants to play with me like I'm a cat, but he has taken it really far. Ever since he first started biting me, I always tried not to let him...
Thats all right, thank you for your replies :) The vet replied,said it is all safe to give 1 ml twice a day. This solution contains 750 mg of Passiflora per 5 ml. I'm writing here in case maybe helps someone
I'll ask him, when I'll be able to reach him. The reason why I asked the dosage here was that I wasn't able to ask and it was kind of urgent. But fortunately my cat is better now.
Hi Anne, I've used passiflora (the same one) for him in the past because I've been advised by a vet. Of course I dont give him anything human grade without consulting an expert.
