    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Well, it's not deadly if it's caught in time, which it wasn't with my Lil Bit.  Her vet thought we had caught it in time, but it returned a year after her surgery, behind her eye and her eyelid.   Lil Bit was a grey and white kitty, but she was mainly an indoor cat. Her vet was really surprised...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    You weren't given steroid eyedrops? And you went to a feline opthamologist?  Don't want to scare you or anything, but you might want to consider a second opinion on this. About a year and a half ago, my cat was doing the coughing, vomiting thing also,  but not as severe as your cat. When I took...

    Bupranex or Tramadol. Need opinions asap.

    Tramadol (kind of like valium) would be prescibed to keep her quiet, I would assume, but be careful with it. My Lil Bit was prescibed one half tablet and it actually made her walk around bumping into everything and when I rediced it to a quarter of a dose, she walked in circles. It had the...

    Had to rush Lil Bit to the vet this morning. First thing when I woke up I noticed a big knot right under her eye and knew for sure that her eye cancer had spread or something. You know...think the worst things first! Anyway...she had an abcessed tooth and they lanced the abcess and pulled three...

    Lola fights with her tail like something is hurting her

    Has the vet x-rayed her tail or her spine? She acts like she's in pain to me, the way she tries running away from it. Poor baby....

    Heater advice??

    Thanks! Yeah...the smell is also a concern. What weather proofing has been done, I've did myself. It's just an old farm house and he'd just as soon tear it down and use the land for pasture.
