I took my 2.5 year old Gil to the vet 2 days ago for excessive reverse sneezing, open mouth breathing, and a runny nose/eyes. He was so congested that he could not sleep without waking up every 2-3 minutes to gag or cough. His brother had dealt with a cold the week before but got over it within...

In May, I moved from a flea-ridden home to a new, flea-free apartment with my two cats. They have been treated for fleas (topically) since (and even before) the move. Our whole apartment has been flea free since the move, but one of my boys has developed dandruff since we left the old place. (He...

* I forgot to say I administered the flea treatment 2 weeks ago

So, I was a bad cat mom and didn't actively administer topical flea treatments to my cats for a long time. Well, my roommate's dogs brought them in the house and both of my babies started scratching. So, I brushed them with the flea comb and immediately applied Sentry Fiproguard to both of them...

So my two cats have caught fleas from my roommates dogs. Yesterday I treated them both with Sentry Fipro for cats in hopes that it will kill the remaining fleas and eggs I didn't get with the flea comb. Should I automatically assume that they will get worms as a result? I can take them to get...

I am apparently unable to read my resident cat and new kitten's behavior. Resident cat Gil is about 1.5 years old, and new kitten Gus is 9 months. They seem to get along generally ok (they've been out and about with one another for about a week now). BUT, resident cat Gil spends most of his day...

Honestly, I am not sure why the vet even put him on the metro, other than her telling me that it would treat his chronic diarrhea. The shelter paid for the entire two week vet stay, so I do not think that they ran any tests or did any fecal panels (at least they never told me they did). They...

So, I brought 9 month old Gus home about 3 weeks ago from the shelter. Upon realizing he had explosive diarrhea (and apparently has had a history of it after looking at his vet records), I took him straight to the vet where he stayed for 17 days and took a full 2 weeks worth of metranidazole to...

I am almost suspecting a food allergy, since I noticed when I brought him home yesterday that he has licked away a noticeable amount of fur near his back leg/on his belly. The vet had been giving him Hill Science wet food and sent me home with a bunch of cans so that's what I've given him...

HELP! I adopted 9 month old Gus three weeks ago. He had explosive diarrhea when I brought him home, but the shelter manager said it was from a chewable vitamin he had been given for runny eyes. She said they had stopped the vitamin and that his stools would be back to normal soon. Well, after...
