    Young pregnant cat has pronounced lump on belly

    Yes, she's due in a week or so. We will thoroughly check all the kittens and keep our eyes on them! I hope it's not going to be passed on.

    Young pregnant cat has pronounced lump on belly

    Hi everyone, not sure why I didn't get notifications of people replying, but we just took her to the vet, and the doctor believes it's just a hernia! He says it shouldn't affect her activities, and there's a chance the labor might make it worse, but it's a small possibility. Thank you everyone!

    Young pregnant cat has pronounced lump on belly

    I'm fostering a pregnant cat for a rescue and just got her yesterday and all her vet paperwork was great. She's only about a year old and a little thin. However today I noticed a lump right between two nipples on her belly. It's about the size of a fingertip. It doesn't bother her when I touch...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    I agree with you! It doesn't make much sense to compare old age to a young and healthy cat! And I believe so. Maybe the vet can see if any organ is enlarged or something. The vet didn't mention any ties between the hair loss and the urinary issue. I believe they could be unrelated, since I think...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    The vet had mentioned urinary incontinence, saying that her 13 yr old dog is able to hold it in all day, but at night when the dog is relaxed or sleeping, it's more possible to leak pee then. The vet said I could do an ultrasound, which would cost upwards of $500. But I think there's a few other...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    Update: I was able to get my cat seen by my vet that day, Tuesday, and they ran a full blood panel. The vet was unsure how to test for hormone levels (since checking for that differs from humans?). I received the results and she was in normal range for everything, thyroid, kidneys, etc. So I'm...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    Thank you! We believe the former owner had a dog since there's a fenced in backyard, but it's a flipped house with new carpet, paint, and appliances, so I'm not sure how or if scents could remain. I believe she's been having this pee issue for awhile (fur loss is more recent), but I was never...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    Thank you for replying! And that's a good idea; I'll ask for a check of her hormonal levels and a blood panel. I didn't know what to ask the vet to do since the vet thinks it's behavioral. My cat just reached 8 lbs a week ago and she's lean and lanky. I'm always cleaning out the litter box every...

    Vet thinks behavioral issues, but I disagree

    My 1.5 year old fixed cat has been losing fur on her legs and ears, and recently I noticed she's been peeing in her sleep. Not alot, but a few drops. I took her to the vet when I noticed she was losing fur, and they told me she was overgrooming since the skin wasn't irritated or scabbed. It...
