When the vet tech called I asked about Heartgard and she treated me like I’m stupid and said no🙄 I ended up trying the Revolution plus this morning, we gave it to her almost 4 hours ago and no side effects so far but I’m watching her closely

It’s not ear mites she has it’s demodex mites (aka mange) so that’s why she recommended it. I asked her if it was safe with her seizure and she just said there’s a risk to it which was not super helpful for my anxiety 😂 she said the only other alternative was to do weekly like sulfur dips so I...

I’ll take a look at the article! It would be applied topically every 30 days

Interesting! The only problem though is that she said it’s the ingredient that revolution plus has that kills the mites 😕

They said we can do weekly lime sulfur dips for 6 weeks to cure the mites. But I do want her on a heartworm preventative during the summer months so she can go out on the patio with me. I don’t know if heartguard would be the safest option as far as heartworm prevention goes

I’ve asked her specialty vet and her normal vet and they just say there’s a risk and it’s up to me. They’ve said that I can try it and if she has a seizure to discontinue use but I’m worried it’ll permanently hurt her 😢

Hi everyone! My cat was diagnosed with demodex mites and the best way to treat is by using revolution plus. My cat has had a seizure in the past and one of the side effects of this medication is that it can cause seizures rarely in some cats especially if they’ve had neurological conditions. Has...

Our vet recommend that we crate her for a few weeks to see if it would heal by itself and it did! We got a little collapsible tent and put her food/water/litter in with her so she couldn’t walk around. I also read that CBD helps cats heal so I ordered some cat CBD in a tincture and gave her a...

Hello! I know I’m late to this thread but this has been the only place on the internet that had the same issue as me. My cats nose has continually gotten darker in the past 2 months and the vets can’t figure out what it is. They gave us antibacterial ointment which briefly lightened it a bit but...

It’s been a couple weeks now, the vet gave me some antibiotic ointment which lightened her dark mark a little bit. I’ve been using it for almost 3 weeks now and her nose won’t lighten more than this and she’s getting a sore in her nostril along with what looks like maybe brown boogers? Is this...

For a few months now my cat has had this large brown spot on her nose. When I asked the vet about it she said it was probably a stain from food. I tried to wipe it but nothing comes off. I feel like since her last appointment about a month ago it’s gotten darker. It’s not raised, scabbed, oozing...

Yeah she was walking fine for awhile somehow! But now she can only take a couple steps at a time and has to rest😢 I have her caged up right now so she will stay still. I want to talk to the vet about any vitamins that they could suggest to help her get stronger bones. When she was a kitten she...

The latest news is from her regular vet that we go to, but I think the cost of surgery does amount to the same price but doubled if we need to get it repaired since we would have to do both legs. Luckily we are getting her sent home with pain meds to manage her pain while we wait for the next step

So I took her to the vet today and he told me that both of her back legs are either broken or not fully formed. So now I really don’t know where to go from here😕 I guess that takes amputation off of the table, he suggested crating her and he’s getting ahold of another orthopedic surgeon

We found her malnourished and the runt of a barn cat so she’s had a few problems. She used to walk in circles and runs into things a lot so the vets thinks her brain might not be completely developed. She also still has her baby teeth that are being extracted tomorrow, and in a case study I read...

Oops I missed it, I just read it! Nobody has given us the option per se, but she broke her leg about a month ago so we decided to see how it would do on its own and she stopped limping and was acting fine for a couple weeks. But over the last weekend she must’ve done something because she...

Ive been trying to read some case studies on it and surgery outcomes don’t look too good 😕 it’s such a rare type of break that there’s hardly any information on it, something I read said only .1% of cats that come in with broken bones have this type of fracture. She’s getting more X-rays done...

Here’s my little kitty (Doja) with the broken leg, she’s the best g I’ve talked to 2 specialists and because it’s her kneecap they have to wire it back together so unfortunately they can’t just cast it☹️ Unless we pay $200 just for a phone call consultation they won’t tell us her odds of it...

Her knee is also completely fractured and being pulled apart in 2 different directions so it’s not just a small fracture that could heal on its own

Her kneecap is being pulled completely apart by a couple mm sadly, the vets have never seen this before where I live so it’s hard to make a decision on what will be best for her long run. I don’t want it to start causing her pain after surgery because of arthritis and having to end up going back...
