My cat developed this after receiving his second set of vaccinations about 1 year ago.  He stopped eating and developed a high fever.  We were very worried but he recovered fully within about 5 days.  Our wonderful vet gave him antibiotic shot and we made sure to give him fluids frequently with...

Call me a hippie, but I really believe natural remedies are the best in so many conditions I've come across with my 2 cats.  Every time I've given them synthetic medications, 100% of the time, they've reacted badly to them. Just this week my vet prescribed Canaural (which has prednisolone in...

Update! It's now been about 24 hours since the Mirtazapine was given, and I'm finally starting to see real improvement.  I let him be all day and then a few hours ago I tried once again to syringe him about 2 mLs of water, and he was able to keep this down.  So then I gave him 3 mLs of homemade...

Hi everyone. I'm feeling a little irritated by the lack of investigation from our vet.  He did the basics ... temp, palpating, etc ... and decided to dish out the drugs.  I'm not sure how much my cat weighs but he's 11 months and a smaller cat.  He was administered 1/4 tablet of 15 mg, and...

Hi Linda, Was your kitten vaccinated recently?  It sounds exactly what I went through.  Basically his body didn't create antibodies against the calicivirus when they injected him with it (vaccine) and he actually got sick instead of getting stronger like is intended.  Simba ended up recovering...

Hello, I know this is an old thread but hopefully you can still help me. My 11 week old kitten had his second booster shot a week ago, and just a few days later I awoke to find him limping.  We took him to the vet, he gave him a non-steroidal anti-infammatory and said it was most likely...
