Thank you for the response. I will discuss some of this with my vet. He doesn’t go outside at all and he eats the same thing every day. That’s why I feel like it must be either fur or reflux related. When this latest episode started I found a large hairball mixed in vomit the first time, a...

Thanks for the tip. Is that another dry food that you mix in or does it come as a supplement?

Hi everyone. I hope you can help. My 5 year old Himalayan neutered male has ALWAYS had vomiting problems. I obviously have spoken to the vet many times about it. The first night I brought him home as a kitten he threw up in his litter box! He frequently throws up near his litter box. Sometimes...

That’s definitely what I’m seeing! Thanks

I was giving her glucosamine but stopped when I put her on the other supplement with tumeric. Maybe I should add it back in? Wouldn’t the arthritis have shown in the xray?

Hi all. I have a 3 year old white chinchilla Persian who has had an intermittent limp since she got her Vaccinations in December. It was especially bad in February so I took her in to the vet where she had X-rays and bloodwork. No cause for the limping was found. She was prescribed Metacam which...

So I’ve had Sapphire on Comfort Gold by Pet Wellbeing for about a month now. She’s doing well but occasionally she will start limping again! I just don’t understand. I’ve read about Immune Mediated Polyarthritis that can come from many causes including viruses so wondering if that developed as a...

Best of luck to you and Pistachio too!

Most of the time I think my Sapphire is fully recovered (stacked vaccinations last day of November). However, every once in a while she has a day of returned limping and stiffness. I haven’t given her prescription anti inflammatory in over a week (and then I just gave her 2 doses to try to jump...

I did mix it in the her food but she wouldn’t touch it. I ordered one from “Pet Wellbeing”. You only need 6 drops of that one and I’ve used that brand for other ailments to great success. She is moving great again today after her tiny Meticam dose last night but I know it’s not good for her.

Well I wrote my comment above too soon. I stopped giving her the Metacam about 1-2 weeks ago and she was doing great but I guess the inflammation caught up with her and she’s limping again. Hate to give her Metacam but gave her a small dose tonight. Tried to give her the natural turmeric hemp...

My Sapphire is finally not limping and eating better and playing after at least 2 mouths. I’ve had her off the Metacam for about a week now and keeping my fingers crossed for no relapse. I spent about $700 and 2 vets didn’t think it was related to the shots. I don’t know any other variable...

I start to doubt myself when the vets don’t think that is the cause of the limping but there’s so many of us on this thread.

Thank you so much for the recommendation. I found out from the vet that the vaccine given was Boehringer Ingelheim purevax feline 3, with FVRV (Rhinotracheitis), FCV (calicivirus) and FPV (panleukopenia). The vet of course doesn’t think it’s related to the vaccine.

I can’t believe I finally found this thread!! My vet also said it couldn’t possibly be the vaccination combination. This is the second cat that I have had who had a reaction but this time it is going on and on. I have a three year-old rescued Persian chinchilla who I had vaccinated with the...
