    Cat suffering from anemia

    Thank you so much for all your information and help during the last 3 months, it has been a rough period, but at least I know that he is not suffering any more and that I did all I could for him.  After reading all of his symptoms, I agree that I think it was FIP as well, and there would have...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    Well, sad news this morning, my little Flagstick succumbed to his illness and left us at approximately 5:15 a.m.  We're still not quite sure what happened because up until Monday he was still a playful little guy.  I never could believe that he was anemic with the energy he seemed to have

    Cat suffering from anemia

    Well, it's been about 6 weeks and I thought that we had turned a corner, he was doing well, some days better than others but definitely active, he would be at the front door to go out every morning including this morning.  However, the last couple of days, he hasn't been himself other than...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    We had Flagstick in for a follow up appointment today and it seems that his RBC count has gone back down to 17%  (he was at 22%, went down to 17% back up to 28 and now back to 17)but the vet doesn't know why.  He is eating like normal, is active (overly so most of the time) and shows no symptoms...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    This is a picture of Flagstick.  We got his results tonight.  His HT has gone up from 22% last thursday to 28% today. The vet is very pleased with that,plus he gained a little weight and has told us to keep letting him eat kitten food, as much as he wants.  His only concern right now is his...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    I'm not too sure what his level was on Thursday, I made the mistake of not asking for the results of the blood test, so it may have actually been the same and our vet just considers that severe.  He's going tomorrow afternoon to see his vet and I am going to make sure that my husband asks for...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    That was another question that my vet asked and I really don't think so, I rarely take them,so they are never out and up to now he won't eat anything that isn't his food, including tuna.  The blood test that I just gave you was taken last tuesday and he saw his vet on thursday but I don't have...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    He tested negative for FELV and for FIV.  I can only give you the results that I got from the clinic where he first had a blood test, it shows 0.22 on a reference range of 0.29-0.45 L/L.  My vet did do blood work and was asking me about onions or garlic since they found heinz bodies in his blood...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    He went n because he was having trouble with his right eye which was later diagnosed as uveitis and we were given drops.  While he was with the vet my husband decided to have a blood test done, not for any special reason, just because he was there and felt it might be good idea.  It was then...

    Cat suffering from anemia

    My 13 month old cat was just diagnosed with very severe anemia. I don't doubt my vet however from everything I have read about anemia in cats I'm really confused. He is playful, energetic (I wish I had half the amount of energy he does) and an extremely good appetite. I've read that the symptoms...
