Hi everyone! I was the original poster on this thread. Thank you all so much for your input and sharing your stories. I never thought I would find other people who had cats with this disorder. It has been almost three years now and Bella is still on prednisolone but doing pretty good. She was...

Thank you!

I cannot get a straight answer from Google. Found this on the carpet. I have 3 cats and I'm concerned.

Hello! I know this thread is over a year old, but was wondering if you could give an update? I have to wean my cat off of Prednisolone. She is 12 months old and had what the vet suspects was an autoimmune problem with her blood. She was anemic and had almost no platelets. She had 2...

Thank you. She is just 11 months old and I just have no idea why this is even happening. I am devastated. She is such a sweet little girl. My heart is breaking. I hope we have good news tomorrow at the vet. I hear this is somewhat common in dogs, but not so much in cats.

Thanks. I am overwhelmed right now. Bella had 2 transfusions and her PCV is up from 17 to 24, still no platelets. She is home now because the hospital environment was stressful and she was not eating. She is on Prednisone and Doxycycline. I think I was mistaken when I said her white count is...

Help! I have a cat who is about 11months to 1 year old. She was born under a deck. My neighbor and I rescued the whole litter in July. She was vaccinated, screened and fixed. She and the entire litter was very healthy. Combo tested three times, all negative. 4 days ago, I noticed blood spots...

Hello! I have 3 cats. Mikey is 2.5 years old. Bella is 6 months old (female) and Gizmo (male) is 6 months. Bella and Gizmo are siblings. Mikey loves the kittens and the kittens love him. No one fights. They all get a long extremely well. They are all fixed. Gizmo is extremely jealous. He...

It's so exciting watching them grow!

Thanks! This is actually just a picture of the male. My neighbor and I rescued them from underneath a deck. We both took in the whole litter plus mama cat. I love them! We got them in time to socialize them, and my current cat loves them too. I just thought he was a little big for his age. I...

Hi there. I have two kittens from the same litter. They are 6 months old. One cat is a normal 7.5 pounds. But the male cat is 9.5 pounds. He isn't fat. Just...big. is this just considered the high end of normal? I've never had a kitten this big at 6 months. The other kittens from the litter are...
