Did they Felv test as well and he's negative? As FIP can be a complication of FELV. He's a beautiful cat. I'm glad you are fighting for him. Is he on remdesivir? As sometimes that takes more than one course of treatment.

They don't want other cats exposed to the virus. This is not the same as FIV.

Many shelters are no longer testing for FIV or FELV. This means anything you adopt from the shelter could expose your current pets to a deadly disease. If shelters are testing, they may only test some cats, and not all. They may not disclose which kittens are tested and which aren't. They may...

My cat has been diagnosed with Felv after being diagnosed with pancreatitis. He has lost a lot of weight. He has enlarged lymph nodes which could be cancerous but could also be related to his pancreatitis. He is eating well for the moment. My question is regarding treatment. There are...

No poop yet today. Hoping he poops again and doesn't get constipated.

Good news. He had a normal bowel movement. Phew! I can't help but worry after losing his sibling to kitten fading syndrome. He is eating well though.

Any remedies or ideas? He last pooped 2 days ago. Should we go to the vet for an enema? He is eating 6 mls every 3 hours of kmr formula. We tried adding Pedialyte but backed off because he was peeing a lot and appears hydrated. He probably just turned 1.5-2 week old. Eyes are open, ears...

My older cat has been vomiting water and fluid. His blood work is normal. His appetite is good. He does have gurgling in his belly and that sometimes proceeds the vomiting of fluid. He does not seem to vomit food and usually throws up clear, slightly brownish liquid. No foam. My trusted vet...

How do I discourage this? My cat has taken an interest in chewing on electrical cords in order to get attention. He does it mainly when he wants to be fed- 4 times a day. It is very dangerous for him and aggravating for me. I have started locking him in the bathroom when I know we are...

Has anyone used them? Any good/positive success stories about reimbursements? I found the yelp page that was all negative reviews and the consumer affairs page which was more positive. I'm just wondering if anyone else has used them and had a mostly positive experience? I read through their...

All my cats have demodex gatoi. I have tried the lyme sulfur dip. Besides being noxious smelling, it's not really helping. Within 4 days everyone is itching again. I was wondering if anyone has tried flea shampoo containing permethrins? Obviously with a E Collar to prevent ingestion...

He's getting 1/4th cup of food twice a day.

My 4 month old kitten is 6 lbs! He was the largest of the litter. Am I feeding him too much? He's a Siamese mix - was a bottle baby abandoned at the shelter with his siblings. Any idea how big he is going to be?

My 17 year old elderly cat has a heart arrythmia and high blood pressure. He recently went blind from high blood pressure and I expected to put him down at that point, however he stabilized on the blood pressure medication and his vision has returned (if not normal, he can at least still see)...

Could be coccidia or giardia or intestinal parasites. Could be related to her being a Manx but I think that is much less likely. Please see a vet and they can examine a stool sample under the microscope for parasites. I think given her young age, you are likely dealing with a parasite problem.

I went through cancer with one of my cats and despite the poor prognosis I proceeded with surgery. The first surgery worked (removed the tumor), but it came back within 8 months. The second surgery did nothing and in hindsight I should not have done it. The cancer jumped to the incision site...

Take him to a veterinary specialist hospital- blue pearl or a university hospital. This sounds life threatening. I've had 2 cats rushed to the emergency vet- one was diagnosed as IBD (inflammatory bowel) and the other was diagnosed with intestinal lymphoma. Both are doing well with treatment...

I think he just needs a physical exam. Check his temperature, heart rate, capillary refill, get some bloodwork done as well. Just in case. If you are extra paranoid, get a couple of x rays of his GI tract/abdomen/heart etc. X rays aren't real specific for anything, but I prefer to do random snap...

He was comfortable all night last night, ate his breakfast okay, has been wandering around my room and he just climbed on the bed. Since he doesn't appear in any distress, i see no reason to rush him back in. Given we don't know the severity of his heart problem, I'm just going to keep...

The vet thinks the liver and kidney issues are due to his heart disease. Since she doesn't know what is wrong, she didn't recommend any medications.
