Yes, his appetite is normal and actually he acts normal. If the vet wouldn't have told me he had an issue with his heart I wouldn't have know. He has no outward signs of heart issues with his breathing or normal activity.

UPDATE: I took my cat in for a follow up visit after being on Pimobendan 0.5mg twice daily for 30 days so far. The vet checked his heart with the stethoscope several times. He said my cat was doing good and he could no longer hear the heart murmur. Now I'm confused and bewildered, I thought I...

Well. my cat has been on Pimobendan liquid 1.25mg/ml strength, 0.5 ml twice daily for 8 days now. He only nibbles his food, he's very lathergic with zero energy level. He was more active prior to starting the medication. I spoke with the vets office yesterday and vet said bring him in after he's...

6 year old male cat: I took my cat in for annual exam and vaccines. The vet detected a heart murmur when he listened to his heart. Took X-ray and said cat has enlarged heart and fluid build up. His vertebral heart score is 8.5, I read where 6.7 to 8.1 is normal for a cat. Vet said to try him on...

I have 2 male 2 year old cats that are inside/outside cats. I semi-retired 2 years ago but unfortunately due to some unforeseen expenses I must go back to work. I'm going to St Croix to work for upwards to 8 months. The cats will not be able to travel with me as I will be staying at a...

Actually they are 90% indoor but do go outside and mingle around other cats. They do pick up fleas from other cats. I called the vets office and the receptionist said it wouldn't be an issue. Just wondering if anyone else had this done at the same time.

I have 2 male indoor cats that are 2 years old. I would like to take them to the vet for a bath as they've never had one. The vets office said they must sedate them for the baths, not wild about that part but I can understand why. They are also due for their annual shots and I would like to do...

My 2 cats are on Amoxi-Clav 1.5ml twice daily. I took it out of refrigerator at 5:00 this morning for their morning dose. I forgot to put back in and realized it 8 hours later. It's been in about 72 degree indoor weather. Is it still good to use? My vets office is closed.

Very lathergic still and keeping to himself. Eating very little. Sneezing, runny eyes, breathing is very stuffy sounding. Have a vet appt day after tomorrow to see if it’s another polyp. Keep giving his meds but doesn’t seem to be working. The steroid shot really has him zapped with no energy...

In the back of his nose. My main concern at this point is why is he so lethargic after the steroid shot.

Ive been working out of town for about 2 months and left my cat 2 year old male with a friend. He started real bad sneezing with runny eyes so she took him to her vet. He was given a steroid shot and a week later no improvement. She brought him back and the vet put him on 1.5ml Amoxi-Clav twice...

I took both to the vet yesterday morning and they were very understanding with my financial situation and didn't charge an arm and a leg. Vet did an exam including a fecal test. The one kitten has a small worm. Vet gave prescription for Albon and Strongid for the diarrhea and worms, Clavomax...

Sarthur 2: Money is also an issue here, as I noted above I'm on a very tight fixed income and can't afford IV's. I'm doing my best to save this kitten but I don't have an open ended cash flow. I've tried local vets before and all they see when you walk in the front door is the cash register...

The formula I've been using is KMR Kitten Milk Replacer both powder and pre-mixed depending on which one Petsmart has in stock. Up at 4am to check on the kittens. One appears to be doing fine even though still has diarrhea he's very active and took the bottle right down. I gave them pedialyte...

First off I've never cared for feral kittens so this is all new to me. 16 days ago 2 feral kittens were on my front porch. After looking at images on the internet I estimated they were 10 days old. So I'm guessing they are now about 3.5 weeks old. I tried everything including several rescue...

2 male 1 year old brothers both neutered. Always playing and having fun throughout the house. They do go outside on occasion. While they were outside I needed to make a short run around the corner. One of the cats came up to me and I put him in the truck for the short ride without his carrier...

They haven't used the litter box for days at a time. Today one tried and is definitely constipated. The vet suggested giving both 1/2 teaspoon to see if it helps.

They eat both dry and wet food.Friskies canned and Purina Cat Naturals Dry. I have recently tried Blue Buffalo Grain Free Chicken and Instinct Chicken, Canned and Dry and also various canned flavor of both brands. They would not touch either, huge waste of money. They've always been picky eaters.

I have 2 indoor/outdoor cats that went to the vet a couple of days ago because they quit using the litter box. They are not going in the house and I was concerned they were plugged up. She assured me they were not plugged up and probably just quit going inside and holding it until they go...

Also, one of my cats was sleeping on my lap, when he awoke I put my arm under his chest to move him. He let out a moan and before I could sit him down he bit me. I could see him being sore in the leg where they gave him a shot, but why would he be screaming when my hand is under his upper chest...
