I'm glad your cat it's back to normal! :hyper: Ours had similar symptoms when she was a kitten and we also had to admit her to the hospital. She was also given IV fluids and stayed there overnight - our bill was crazy high but it was worth it as the little one went back to normal -. I think she...
We got a scare with our cat a few days ago when she got in contact with Lilies. She occasionally goes out and I think somehow she found the Lilies and played with them. We were unaware until we noticed she had yellow marks on her chest and head. The problem is, she could have been like that for...
My little would play very rough before she was spayed, now a lot of the aggressiveness is gone and the only thing she'd try to do is byte me. It's ok since she's only playing so it's a pretend byte. Other than that, give him timeouts when he's behaving badly and he'll probably understand. Also...
I agree my mrsgeenjeens, antibiotics can make them not want to eat. Perhaps change Tomi's diet. There is special dry food for when they're sick (Hills Id was given to mine and it was the only thing she wanted to eat). If the cat won't eat for 2 days straight, it's best to take it back to the Vet.
I had my cat spayed at the Humane Society and they tattooed her on the abdominal area (it's a green mark). I don't know if they do in other places but they tend to do that here in Ontario.
I'm up by 6:30 am on a weekday and 7:30-8:00 am on the weekend. Sometimes Perla is very active and won't let us sleep so I tend to sleep in those days and then run like crazy to get to work
The vet called this morning and Perla is feeling much better :woo:
She said Perla is still not completely out of the wood but she's now eating and much more active than yesterday
There are good chances Perla will be discharged today :bunnydance:
Most likely cause of her illness: a nasty stomach...
Update: the cat is in hospital, they are going to run some tests (blood work, stool sample, ultrasound if needed). For the time being she's in good hands. I just hope they get to the bottom of the issue.
The vet knows and she said that it is unlikely to be fatal; she said symptoms would be vomiting and diarrhea, but typically there is a good prognosis if the cat didn't eat much. Unfortunately, we don't know for sure this is the root cause ... :(
@kat hamlin I hope your cat is better. I don't...
did a quick search on poisonous household plants ... lo and behold the one and only plant I have indoors is poisonous ... Schefflera. I have removed it from the premises. Perla is slightly better but she's still not eating. The wife is looking after her today ...
From my very limited experience, that's not normal. What I was told when I got my cat spayed is that the wound has to be clean, dry and odourless. I'd call the place where your cat was neutered and perhaps bring him up for a check up.
