Sorry you and Goose are going through this. Hopefully he'll start improving soon. If it were me I'd keep him home now unless there's an emergency. So much stress going to the vets, he might just need some down time at home, feeling safe to recover. What about Vitamin B drops to add to his wet...
Yes, I'm definitely finding another vet. It's so strange because she is highly recommended and no longer accepting patients because of her demand. But I wonder if this has made her arrogant? Or maybe she only likes certain people, or prefers dogs over cats? It shouldn't be like that. She should...
We went for a completely unrelated reason - a tumour in his leg. She was very unhelpful in follow up call when I said he was suddenly at the litter constantly. In fact, she didn't get on the phone with me. She just had her assistant tell me to wait and see, and if it gets worse to go to an...
We just got back from a stressful vet appointment and my 17 year old boy is now going to the litter box every 7 minutes. I'm worried he has a partial urinary blockage caused by the stress of the vet visit. If we go to the emerg clinic it may be a death sentence for him as they would need to put...
If anyone is curious, it now definitely appears to be feline hyperesthesia. We have been treating him successfully with CBD oil (made specifically for cats) and Vitamin B drops. He barely attacks his tail anymore. I continued the conversation in this post: Help - Feline Hyperesthesia
Awesome. I hope it helps! We've been doing a few things from the comments section of that YouTube video I posted and it does seem to be helping. The CBD, Vitamin B liquid, and distracting him with cuddles and play when he starts going at his tail. The episodes have really gone down. Crossing...
Hi @minnie's mom my cat Loki may have FHS (it's either that or nerve damage). I hope Minnie has been doing better. I also found this youtube video (check the comments section for all the great info) and we've been giving Loki CBD oil now and already seeing an improvement.
We are mixing the...
Thanks so much @fionasmom and @gilmargl . I have been researching hyperesthesia and saw a video on youtube and it really looks like what Loki is doing. So, it may be that and not nerve damage.
I was thinking amputation would be preferable to life-long meds too but the doctor said the...
Well, I'm so upset and angry with myself. About a year ago I accidentally closed the heavy recycling drawer on my cat Loki's tail. I was certain I had broke it. But, it seemed fine and I counted myself as lucky.
Then, about a month and a half ago, Loki starts biting his tail. But, his reaction...
Hi there. Can you provide an update on this? I'm now going through the exact same thing with my cat Loki. It is just as you described - a pea sized lump under the skin but on his back. Thanks
She's so beautiful. My older cat is having some problems with his joints and I never even thought to give glucosamine. How do you give it to your cat? Can I use the human grade supplement? Thanks
