My family has a young snowshoe siamese (half siamese) that is very ill, it started off as a diagnosis of spinal stenosis that made her bite at the base of her tail alot, now she will cringe whenever you touch the arch of her back. The vet said that this was a separate problem from the spinal stenosis and could be an abscess or possibly bone cancer. He did an x-ray and didn't find anything, she has an appointment to have a CAT scan done next week. She has been getting lazer treatments for the spinal stenonsis witch seems to be helping. The vet has her on Prednisolone and Gabapentin for the pain but we hate to give it to her because of the horrific side effects, does anyone know of any other pain relievers for cats? She hasn't been herself for the last week or so, she spends her days hiding around the house instead of playing like usual. Has anyone else had a similar problem with their cat and how did you deal with it? Thanks
