You might want to take him to a different vet as he might have a Urinary Tract Infection or something else...... How To Deal With Incontinence In Elderly Cats While Sleeping

You're welcome. The symptoms seem to fit... Symptoms and Types The main symptom of phlebitis is a localized inflammation, which can be seen due to warmth, swelling, pain, hardened vessels, or a redness of the skin known as erythema. If at least two of the aforementioned signs are present, this...

This might help?! "The main cause of phlebitis is intravenous (IV) catheter use. Poor catheter quality or care may lead to bacterial colonization of a catheter, which can then infect the cat. Catheters are often used during surgery, or for the treatment of trauma victims." Inflammation of the...

Thank you! It was a very dark time for me. Hoping for the best possible outcome for Mollison. Sounds like you're on the right track.

So sorry you and Mollison are going through this. I would lean more towards taking her to the ER. I think amputation is quite drastic and quite possibly unnecessary - she might not have cancer either. I lost two 7 year old cats due to a vet's misdiagnosis this year. Wishing you both good luck!

An associate vet preformed the spay surgery. According to their website, he graduated veterinarian college in 2000 and has been with this practice since 2015. I also thought the incision would be neater and, of course, much smaller.

Thanks for replying! This was the first time using this vet. We got the kitten at 6 weeks old so no chance of being pregnant and no signs of being in heat. I did talk with another vet's office and she thought they may have had trouble locating the "horn". The kitten is long and slim if that...

I just brought my 5 month old kitten home this morning from being spayed yesterday. I've had cats spayed in the past but none of them ever had an incision this long....it's at least 3 inches. Has anyone ever had this happen?

Is it possible to take him to a different vet? Edit: I mean a different regular vet instead of an Emergency vet.

I'm so sorry 😞 but thankful to hear she went peacefully at home. RIP Chloe 🙏

We went through this in March with our cat Kori. He was 15 years old or older. He had moderate kidney disease but had developed a respiratory infection. He was treated, it got better, then it got worse and was treated again with stronger antibiotics. Because of the stronger antibiotics he quit...

My cat is 14 and I noticed his eyes were really dilated and he started bumbling into things once in a while. He might of had this problem for a while but long of the short, he has hypertension and was put on blood pressure medication. He too also had big pupils but one night I noticed it was...

You might want to call your vet as it might be a side effect from the medication.

It is also possible he might have worms even if he was treated for them before. You might want to take a stool sample to the vet.

A full small can might be too much at once. If you can, break it up into smaller meals 3-4 times a day ( 1/2 to 1/3 of a small can each time). "Can Kittens Overeat? The short answer is: absolutely! Kittens will likely eat whatever amount of food you give them, and so it’s up to you to make sure...

I think it depends on the portion size. We have an 8 week old kitten (also abandoned from her mom) and we feed her 1.5 oz. of Royal Canin baby cat canned food and Fancy Feast kitten food (canned) four times a day - alternating to give her variety and so she doesn't get used to one flavor. If we...

You might want to try Royal Canin Mother & Babycat Ultra-Soft Mousse in Sauce Wet Cat Food. I've read it's good for senior cats too because it has prebiotics in it and helps with there digestive system. It's a little pricey but might be worth it?! ROYAL CANIN Mother & Babycat Ultra-Soft Mousse...

My cat lost his buddy a little over 2 months ago. Between that and partially losing his eyesight I'm surprised he's not bald...he was really stressed out. He's doing better now though.

I would take her to another vet!
