You think they would send the regular Revolution if you specifically asked? I would assume Revolution Plus is more expensive so maybe they could even benefit from it

Oh I see. Is there a way to get Stronghold from a different country? In Turkey for example you could just walk in to a vet clinic and get Stronghold just by paying. No prescription is needed. In case anyone you know is going to a different country and/or in case there is an app that you could...

Good to hear from you too, @FeebysOwner. I'm glad you and Feeby are both doing okay 💜 Is this a significant risk though? Stronghold is the most used flea med for cats in Turkey and if I'm not mistaken in Europe in general. At least for the summers. If the risk of a neurological disorder or...

I'm very late but, I would go with Stronghold aka Revolution. It's the most effective flea drops. Frontline's main ingredient is the least effective as most vets here tell us, fleas developed immunity to it. Advantage is fine with non-adult fleas but not as effective fro the adult fleas and...

What makes you think it could be poison?? From bronchitis to asthma, a lot of different things can cause coughing. Did you change anything in the house when this started? Something with a scent? Anything that could cause dust? If so, he might be giving an allergic reaction. Asthma can start out...

I don't know how I managed to miss this thread for almost THREE MONTHS but I'm glad I found it now! I'm so happy to meet Betty White! She's a cutie, just like her older sisters 🌈 . And did she found herself a good family with you! Just followed you on Instagram too.

maybe you can discuss with the vet testing BA. Especially for a non-fasting test. If it gives any answers. They are strict about the rules like I was told Hima needs to fast for 8 hours, then eat about quarter of her meals or close, then no eating for 2 hours.

And note when Hima gets nauseous, it’s also usually after eating. In fact sometimes she only gets nauseous before her evening and night meals although she eats the same food every day. I don’t know if it’s any related to what Feeby might be experiencing of course.

Bile Acid appears as “BA” in the blood test. You are right it’s not usually a part of the routine biochemistry test. Hima gets Liver Finction Test which includes Bile Acid. Hima’s liver enzymes don’t really change between the fasting vs non-fasting. Not that I noticed at least. Bile Acid does...

You know we are monitoring my Hima’s liver-gallbladder enzymes frequently. Her Bile Acid level is always well within the normal range when the test is done after fasting. But it gets elevated sometimes when the test is done 2 hours after eating.

It will be great if you can share. More info is always useful to keep it here for current and future cases!

That’s such a major improvement! To give you an idea, my cat’s ALT was 800 in April and with supplements and all it went down to 400s in only like August. 2 is even considered normal! I hope she continues to improve. I’m rooting for you two:goodluck:

Her jaundice has risen significantly. ALT shows liver damage, it's normal for that to elevate too when there is jaundice. Bloodwork shows there is a problem with liver but it cannot show the reason. The next step is usually ultrasound. If there is tumor somewhere or gallstones ultrasound show...

I remember you and your kitty. And that I recommended Vetelite clinic in Suadiye, to see Çağlar Kondu. I will again recommend her for the surgery. instagram.com/vet.minecaglarkondu I don't know which cardiologist you saw but if you need one again, literally every vet in Istanbul recommends Dr...

Knowing my own cat had very high liver enzymes but she was almost totally asymptomatic, I always suggest everyone to intervene if their cat doesn't eat more than a day and take them to the vet for tests to check the liver and start to feed the cat by day 3 regardless. In a normal cat, not eating...
