Also, I forgot, but Sukie is losing hair on both his ears and we’re not sure why. I’m thinking that it could be due to inflammation. But we don’t want to take him back to the specialist so soon; more of a wait and see as long as he’s eating and the vomitting doesn’t continue. He also didn’t...

Hi, as an update, Sukie threw up for the first time last night and my sister was sort of worried. He’s doing better now, but we’re struggling to figure out what to feed him that won’t cause the inflammation. He didn’t like the Purina Pro Plan wet food above, which I was sure would work. She...

Hi all, sorry for the delay, but Sukie was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis because of the high PLI and TLI in his blood from the GI panel (with a note that they’re unable to rule out precipitating GI disease (IBD or lymphoma without biopsy). So they’re prescribing him metoclopromiide for 14...

Hi, as an update, Sukie saw the internal medicine/GI specialist today. He received an ultrasound and a gamut of blood tests, including a GI panel for malabsorption and an exocrine pancreatic insufficiency panel (PI), which we’ll have to wait 1-2 weeks to get results for. They discussed with my...

Sorry for the delay; he’s going to an internal medicine specialist this Friday 8/18 (they got back to her with a pretty quick turnaround). His primary vet also took a fecal sample 2 days ago and he was negative for parasites. After talking to my sister, he was also tested for FIV/FeLV during one...

Hi, I didn’t think that I would be on this forum again since the loss of my best girl, but my sister’s cat is now sick and I’m trying to help him as best as I can so that she doesn’t experience the grief that I did so soon in her time with him. She raised her cat Sukie since he was a baby and...

Hi everyone; I wasn't sure how to write this, as the past few months have been very difficult for me. But I ended up taking Squeeb to the specialist, where she received a fine needle biopsy and was diagnosed with large B-cell lymphoma. She would succumb to her illness 2 weeks later, when she...

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay. :catrub:Thank you all for providing some insights had been in the process of taking Squeeb to the vet when I got so many replies. I asked them to give her subcutaneous fluids and a vitamin B12 injection, which perked her up a lot; she's eating and seems less...

Hi, thank you for replying. So usually when I take her to the vet for subcutaneous fluids, I ask them to give her vitamins, including B12. It’s tricky though because when I took her to her old vet, they always included B12, but I’m not 100% sure that the vet she’s currently seeing does every...

Hi, I’ve been a long-time reader of this site, and it has helped me so much regarding treating my senior cat, Squeeb, who was diagnosed with IBD 4 years ago. I finally worked up the nerve to ask for help here, as I’m not sure what else to do recently. Squeeb was doing alright for a while on...
