    Tail pain--question about meds given

    Somehow, my cat Pie has done something to his tail. He can't sit down at all and if I move it to check it he cries and runs away. I took him to the ER yesterday. His anal glands were pretty full but not infected or impacted. They felt that his tail was sprained. They gave me buprenorphine and...

    Respiratory rate?

    My cat, Pie, is breathing funny. Something the vet noticed when he was diagnosed with an URI. He's seemed fine since recovering, but today he is open-mouth breathing some (not all the time). He is purring quite a bit, but doesn't seem to be in distress. Vet said before that he might have asthma...

    Need advice on how to feed 3 cats on diets

    I have 3 cats. Tater Tot has to be on a novel protein because of his IBD. Pepper has to be on W/D and canned food because she gets constipated easily. The vets recommended Pie be on Tater's diet to make it easier on me. All of them are fat to obese. Tater is on a steroid which makes him want to...

    Cat's eyes changing pigment

    My cat had a sudden spot of pigment appear in his left eye about 3 years ago. At that time, I was told by a vet that that was pretty normal, not to worry. I just discovered another spot on his eye and I'm beginning to worry. I've had and rescued many cats over the years, but I've never had one...

    Buprenorphine in the face and not in the cat

    I just tried giving Pepper her buprenorphine. Somehow while I was syringing it into her mouth, it all (or almost all) sprayed backwards right into my face and eyes. I washed my face and took out my contacts but my eyes feel a little funny. A. Do I need to try to give her another dose? B. Am I...
