I have an older cat with health problems. She's had diarrhea for a long time and now it's started to drip out in drops. The cat is still doing good but I'd like to find a way to stop her up some. Something like a fiber medication or OTC diarrhea control. She's beyond changing her diet. Any...
My 1 yr old male cat has seizures about every 2-3 weeks. All tests were negative so they're saying it's probably epilepsy. No MRI was done. Should my cat be getting meds like phenobarbital full time or just deal with the seizures when they come? Seems like the seizure meds have a lot of side...
I have a 2 yr old male cat who is super sweet at home but when we took him to the vet he went crazy after smelling all the other animals. Scratching and biting and running all around. The vet refused to work on him and said to give him some gabapentin next time to calm him down. So I ended...
I have an older cat in poor health. I'm looking for a flea treatment that won't be too stressful on her. I'm hesitant about using meds or collars and I don't really want to wash her with dish soap. Any other alternatives? I'm doing lots of vacuuming and cleaning to help solve the problem.
I started feeding a feral cat that's about 6 mos old. First outside and then inside. The cat is very scared of people but I was thinking of trying to rescue it. I'm thinking it won't do well living outside in a NY winter. Anyways today I left the room for a minute and the feral cat ran uptairs...
I've been feeding some outside feral cats for a while. Now it looks like a skunk has found the location and the cats are scared to come out and the skunk eats all the food. I wonder what might be used to deter the skunk? A smell, maybe a spray bottle of water, a hose? Local officials just say...
My cat has been having diarrhea for quite a while but now it's worse. She keeps going to the litter box and just squirting it out. Very foul smell. I'm thinking it's IBD. She's been to the vet many times and all test were ok. She's now on predisolone for almost 2 weeks but it's not working. I'm...
My cat has been losing weight for a while. Main complaint is diarrhea but all tests negative so far. However I've noticed that she picks at her fur with her teeth and leaves small clumps of fur behind. Seems very strange. Anyone else notice this behavior?
My cat is taking prednisolone for IBD. She seems very agitated but also very hungry which is good. She's only taking 1/4 of a 5 mg pill twice a day. Will most cats get used to this medicine in time?
My 11 yr old cat has been losing weight for three years. Lots of trips to the vet for diarrhea and occasional vomiting. Injections of cerenia and centrine seemed to help. Still my cat has kept losing weight. All the blood tests came back normal. Now I'm wondering if it could be IBD or cancer? My...
The vet prescribed flagyl for my cat's diarrhea but she can't take it. She gets like a zombie for 12 hrs and won't move or eat or drink. I'm wondering if anyone else had this problem?
