I'm not against Keppra per se, my issue with it is that it has to be given every 8 hours and I live alone and have to go to work. It will never be 8 hours intervals for him and I'm not sure if the drug will be effective in this case. I'll mention it to the neurologist tomorrow and see what they...

I'm glad to hear it's not cancer or a heart issue. Bronchitis or asthma sound plausible. My boy doesn't have asthma but has issues with his airway so he is on a puffer/ inhaler twice a day. I don't know if Graycie will need it, but it's not too bad and they get used to it. Mine is a nightmare...

Sending you and Graycie a lot of hugs! It's heartbreaking when you don't know how to help your baby. I really hope you can get to the bottom of it very soon. I'm really pissed at his vet neurologist, to be honest. When they did the MRI they also tried to do a spinal tap, but couldn't find...

Thank you so much :) I'm so sorry to hear about Graycie. I hope you will get to the bottom of it and she will feel better soon. I had a very similar story with him as well. He's got lung issues that are very clearly there but unexplained after all the tests and labs. He ended up being on a...

Thanks everyone for the kind words and responses. Just wanted to post an update of everything we've tried so far: • Blood tests - normal, Potassium was a little low in two different instances • Stool analysis - normal for the most part. He tested +ve for low levels of clostridium perfringens...

I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty. That sounds terrifying 😔 poor baby! I'll try to get a video if he has another seizure, but I totally get what you mean it's so so hard to do when you're panicking and trying to stabilize him. He's on anti-seizure meds now so fingers crossed he doesn't have...

They did but only in the stool analysis. I did a quick search and looks like the blood antibody test is the gold standard. I'll mention it to his vet and see if we can get it done. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your reply ❤️ My mental health has been at its worst, so I appreciate the kind words. His name is Taco :) I managed to get a neurology consult that was disappointing to be honest. They put him on anti-seizure meds (Zonisamide) on Friday and he completely lost his appetite...

My cat (2yo neutered DSH male) had been vomiting more than usual for a couple months. The vet suspected he might have developed an allergy/intolerance and suggested to change his food to a novel protein diet, which I didn't do at the time. Instead, I changed his dry food to a limited ingredient...

No, he's never been outside. I have a feeling he's feverish so I will take him to the emergency vet shortly just in case.

He had his first shot a couple of weeks ago. Should have the second one in two weeks. I have a feeling he might have some kind of infection, he used to sneeze until last week and he keeps squinting his eyes. Not sure if it's related though.

I haven't seen him drink so I've been adding some water to his wet food. He eats 1/2 or 3/4 of his food and I hand feed him the rest. I've been trying to get him to eat every 3-4 hours and he doesn't refuse the food, just eats less than usual. I woke him up and tried to play with him a little...

My kitten (12 weeks old) has been excessively sleeping since yesterday. He's been sleeping/resting all day and doesn't want to leave his cat tree. He's not playing and when he does it's short weak play. I think he's constipated too because the litter box mainly had pee. He's eating but he's not...

He's doing better now! I had him admitted for a few hours at the vet and they force fed him GI friendly wet food and gave him a stronger probiotic. I had to give him Metronidazole and force fed him some more when we got home which made him pissed, but this morning he's doing much better. He's...

He was given 1 Milbemax pill. The emergency clinic's vet said his temperature was fine along with everything else - just his gastrointestinal issues and the worms. She did give him fluids and prescribe Metronidazole, but to be honest I haven't started him on it just yet. I didn't feel he could...

My 8 week old kitten hasn't been eating or playing as usual and is sleeping all day. This has been going on for 4 days so far since he took the dewormer (he vomited once and it had worms). He has stinky diarrhea but I haven't seen any worms in it. I have to literally force him to eat and he...
