    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    Hi! They tested our new cat with a rapid test, not from blood since it's cheaper. I would like to know if he's positive since we'd like to get a third cat someday, but then again it might be far in the future and if he's negative it's just a waste of money. We'll talk with our vet about it but...

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    We were seen by a cat specialist and she's one of the best around here. I also forgot to add in my other reply that he wasn't brought to the vet until we got him and he was already 2 years old when he was vaccinated for the first time. :(

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    He hasn't. We got him from a friend who neglected him, and they got him from some random lady who found him and his sister in the woods. He was separated too soon. We got a rescue cat in December 22 and he was tested and came back negative but the symptoms started a few months after they were...

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    He was on metacam in March/April so it's been a few months. I'll probably give them a call to ask about a consultation, steroids and also about the chewing since I got overwhelmed when I last spoke to our vet and completely forgot!

    I'll ask about a consultation! And yes, we were told to give him a half dose twice a day and that it has to be precise and always on time. I don't know how it's even possible that he's so normal while also being very sick. It's just so strange! :(

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    He's only on Clindamycin and Barbivet (fenobarbital) and the earlier antibiotics were tetracycline. He was also on metacam. I have read about corticosteroids too but we weren't prescribed any. I might have to give them a call about that!

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    We were seen in a hospital last time, they told us that if the antibiotics don't seem to work soon, we'll have to travel multiple hours to the biggest hospital in my country but we don't want to stress him too much since that seems to be a trigger for the seizures. I'm honestly at a loss for...

    Cat has seizures, weight loss, chewing loud

    Hi! Our 4 year old castrated male cat has had tons of health problems recently. All started in March 2023, with fever and flu like symptoms. Main concern is his thrid eyelids are showing, back then it was 24/7. Was diagnosed with cat flu, got pain killers and antibiotics after symptoms didn't...
