He has been peeing normally, but hasn't pooped in days. He only vomited once. The vet called to follow up and said the antibiotics usually take about 48 hours to kick in, so in the meantime I'm keeping a close eye and feeding through the syringe.

Thanks for the reply. I just fed him another couple syringes of food. The vet gave him a prescription food, which is what I've been feeding him in the syringe. I've never heard of Forti Flora though. How does it work? Is it a medicine or a food? Do most pet stores carry it? The vet seemed to...

I adopted a young cat (about 1) year, a month ago. He just started getting comfortable in the house, and then a few days ago he started having diarrhea. Then he stopped eating and drinking. He's been acting really out of it and losing weight rapidly. So last night I took him to an emergency...

Earplugs it is! Thanks for the advice! :)

Muffin's right was swollen shut when I arrived home today. It was fine this morning, and the left eye is still fine. I cleaned it with a wet towel and he is now opening it halfway, but still not all the way. It looks irritated and there is a thin white film extending from the inside of the eye...

Thanks everybody! :)

Hi everybody, my name is Will and I have been a dog lover all my life, but just adopted my first cat and he is the best companion I could have imagined :) His name is Muffin and he is a 4 year old grey shorthair. I just adopted him about a week ago from the humane society. He was found in the...
