...has anyone else had this?? I am devastated and scared to hope. If she survives the transfusion they will do a test for Feline infectious anemia I believe as she has had fleas before, and then they will test her bone marrow for leukemia tomorrow as apparently it could be hiding since the blood...

Hi. So sorry to hear about this confusing issue with Tosie. Usually, something will show up on an ultrasound if there is lymphoma involved, even with small cell GI. If nothing else, it might be enlarged intestinal lymph nodes or thickened intestines, as examples. If all looks good on Tosie's...

Tosie’s anemia was originally classified as non-regenerative, however the past two blood panels have shown regeneration again. In fact, the regeneration has grown with each blood test. Her vet has been stumped to say the least. Her past hematocrit values since the big drop have been hovering...

Hello everyone! My cat Goose seemed lethargic for a couple weeks, then suddenly could barely stand and wouldn’t eat (except for litter). I brought him to the emergency vet. He had a blood transfusion and came home with 2 weeks worth of enrofloaxin (baytril) and a month of predisolone. *also...

Our vet will be calling tomorrow to discuss Tosie’s options. I can post another update then, assuming I don’t get terrible news. In which case I might be a little slower on the updates. Her previous health problems started last summer when she developed severe, chronic anemia seemingly out of...

I see the reports note possible non-regenerative anemia - that can also be affiliated with FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus). Was he tested for this as well? The blood work is confusing (coming from a layperson), as it would seem to denote inflammation and/or infection, and some sort of liver...

Did your vet say if it was a regenerative anemia? Meaning the body is making red blood cells vs. not making them. Your vet didn’t make any suggestions as to cause or further testing? The rest of the results of the bloodwork were good? If it were my kitten, I would test for hemobartonellosis. It...

Creatinine is actually pretty good! Also, good on the BP. Urine counts look pretty good too other than the protein. And, BUN can be impacted by food/stress, so it usually is not an indicator all by itself of kidney disease. If the CBC shows numbers that concern you about anemia - remember the...

You may want to ask your vet about the possibility of feline infectious anemia which is a bacteria that clings to the red blood cells. It's transmitted by flea bites, cat bites, and close contact with an infected cat (like sharing food bowls). I'm just learning about it now; there seems to be 3...

...have given them antibiotics and appetite stimulants to get their cats through things (I'm not sure about anemia). I read about infectious anemia, and then wondered whether it was a false positive and that she actually had infectious anemia which is treatable. Or that I should have asked for a...

Okay here is a list of all possible conditions related to the symptoms you provided. I know some of them are already ruled out by the vet, but to be thorough I will post the complete list (for anyone who may see this thread). Here they are: Acid Refux Anemia Anxiety Morning sickness Diabetes...

First off, sorry you have a sneezing kitty. I know first hand that they are not fun! My cat has been diagnosed with idiopathic chronic rhinosinusitis and has been managed for the past 6 months on an inhaled steroid. Regarding bloodwork - please keep in mind I am not a vet (yet, anyways) Do you...

...to reverse the FIP along with a weekly b12 injection to combat the anemia. We threw on doxycycline for 30 days to rule out feline infectious anemia since you sometimes will see that with dry fip diagnoses. Last year I successfully treated two wet fip cases. Fortunately, wet fip cases are much...

...continuing Cephalkem), so will he be even more susceptible to infections? What do I do to save him? How often should a cat with infectious anemia get his CBC tested? Replies: You were spot on. Thanks for the advice that fleas wouldn't cause wounds this bad. Yeah, I couldn't find any fleas...

Two weeks ago, we took a stray cat that we had brought into our home to the vet for wellness check and to test for infectious diseases. He is now indoor only but had been living part time in our barn for several years. We seemed to hate us until about 6 months after he was TNR'd. When we...

...being hesitant about using a new product on a senior cat. However, I would also be concerned about potential diseases that are being spread by the fleas to my senior kitty (feline infectious anemia, bartonella) Hope you can figure something that works for both you and Feeby! Edited to fix link
