I feel bad that I come here whenever there is trouble in my cat family but I've gotten some good direction here. Of course, I have a Vet and I will have him treat this but sometimes it pays to be an "informed consumer".
My 15 year old runt cat has about 1/2" of her colon(?) poking out. I took her in and she was given a shot and put on soft wet food only. It seemed to retract but now it is poking out again. She seems OK otherwise - playful, eating well, not showing any pain signs. BUT, this looks awful and I wonder:
Does it matter?
Is it fixable?
Any suggestions?
Thank you for anything at all you can tell me about this condition and her prospects. She was hit by a car in kittenhood and that's why her face looks a little off. She's a very sweet girl and I've had her for 13 of her 15 years. Her name is Molly Paper, she's pretty tiny.
