Things are bad. He ended up with a urethral blockage and a bladder full of crystals and stones. He's now showing the same symptoms and he's losing hair and skin.
But my dad having three major surgeries back to back and draining his 401k to pay for them has left us with nothing. I think I...
Hey there. Sorry, my notifications would not load.
Portifoy is actually doing so much better - the little Buddha has even lost some weight.
Now I have just been plagued with a ping pong of a URI virus among my babies. Sooo much careful quarantining, medicating, and syringe feeding.
Hey there,
So my family and I have been protecting and feeding a gorgeous stray we call Church (not that his personality matches that of the Pet Sematary cat). Recently, we took him inside as he injured his front leg, and was being beaten up rather fiercely outside. He's content being sheltered...
We were okay, thank you so much! Portifoy got another skin infection and is back on steroids. The vet hasn't given much info on how to stop his outbreaks- it's as if he's allergic to everything. Even the flea meds I try hurt him.
I think there's one in Tampa. The trick would be getting him there, should they want to see him first. I know I'm running out of options and ideas. Toss in my other sick cats to boot, and I'm ready to pull my hair out. Because they all see the same vet and I'm getting no response back.
I don't think there is. I hope not! Not really, there are limited vets in my area, he has a long history of issues and care, and two vets shunned me because I didn't go to Blue Pearl for my cat with cancer, Greg
His sores are pretty much gone, but he's making weird faces and going bleary eyed on me. He's supposed to start a new regime and diet, but I can't get his vet to get back to me.
I don't know, I thought it might be a growth thing, but it was like turning off a lightswitch. He was bouncing around all night and day and then...nothing. He peps up the twice a day he eats, which is gone in minutes, and he's polishing off multiple huge bowls of water
He's actually eating and drinking so much more. He's always been a steady consumer, but now it's all he's hyped out about and it's all gone in minutes.
Hey all
So I have a 6 to 8 month old neutered kitten I rescued named Bandit. This dude was quite the energenic fireball and needed constant movement, interaction and stimulation. Then, last week it was like a switch turned him off. All he really does is lay there flopped over or sleep. His...
Can a MRSA infection spread internally? I thought he was having a hairball issue, but it's a breathing issue with him now. He's either gargle wheeze-hacking or snortle blowing. No discharge or anything. So I'm freaking out and his vet can't see him until tomorrow morning.
They FINALLY got his results to me: nothing showed on the radiographs. His bloodwork showed elevated Cholesterol, triglycerides, amalyse and billburin levels - nothing definitive though. He IS having an allergic reaction to something (somehow) and got a MRSA infection in his wounds. So he's...
Port FINALLY got in today, looking like a burn victim. Full X rays and a broad blood panel and urinalysis were done. He's staying overnight. Hopefully, I'll also FINALLY have some answers soon.
