i foster kittens and i have a new one who came into the house and a few days later was when i noticed Pekoe not eating and her tongue ulcers. the kitten tested negative for everything. However i can't help but assume that the tests showed a false negative and she brought something into the...

i just read up on this and it looks really serious!! she can have this forever and her teeth may have to be pulled out and put on fluids daily. i really really hope this is not the case. my poor pekoe. i just don't understand how she got it? i mean we have a foster kitten but all of her tests...

she has been vaccinated against calicivirus and is up to date on all shots. i called the vet and she mentioned stromatitis or stamatitis or something along those lines and her chart mentions uramic ulcers, which i think are her tongue ulcers. She did eat a spoonful of the A/D food today. Does...

no other symptoms, the vet checked her out and it's one of three things with long fancy names that i don't remember. i know one of them is a virus. when their office opens up i am going to call and find out the exact names. She licked a tiny bit of the prescription A/D food this morning and i...

i'm not sure what you mean by that. They are not from rodents if that's what you mean? They look like small, red bumps all over her tongue.

does your cat have scabs? my older cat Alice had this problem and the vet gave her a cortisone injection which really seemed to help her. She has no more scabs and not itchy at all. We also keep up with applying frontline monthly which also seems to help.

hello everyone, my sweet 1 year old cat, Pekoe, has developed tongue ulcerations. I was wondering if anyone else has any experience with this. the vet gave her a cortisone injection and prescribed Clinsol (clindamycon hydrocloride) 25 mgs two times per day. Does anyone know how she got this or...

don't think ti's fleas and i'm almost positive it's not the food, as she has been eating the exact same thing since we got her. I tried to give her healthy dry, but she wouldn't eat it. i suppose it could be something else in the environment, i will have to see what has changed. thanks so much...

no she is not loosing any fur around the scabs. They don't itch her all the time, but i'm just a bit concerned because she has quite a few. i suppose it's an allergy to something...

she is not currently on any flea meds/spot treatment. I have combed here several times and never found a flea, the temperature has also been in the teens and twenties where i live so it's cold for fleas. I just bought some healthy food for her so maybe that will help, but she will only eat...

I posted about this once before, but it was deleted during the crash. Patchie, my current foster cat has skin scabs all over her body. On her back, down her spine and on her neck. They are small scabs and itch sometimes. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do? Thanks!

Active Life, never heard of it, i will have to keep an eye out. my girls are the pickest eaters!!

thanks for such a warm welcome back!! glad to be back!!

has anyone tried merrick canned foods? my pet food store just got some in and my girls LOVE this stuff. it actually looks pretty good too! i mean if i was stranded and had to eat cat food, i would actually eat this stuff! it's is made with all real meat and potatos and all kinds of good stuff...
