    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    Has anyone had to do aggressive feeding? The vet said she should do about a can a day, she hasn't been doing anywhere near that, been wasting alot of food, now I've switched over to the syringe. Making a gruel paste and feeding her that way, I just wrap her up in a towel and make her eat, hate...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    Yeah she's eating and drinking real good, we've been watching her eat to make sure she's getting her intake. I'm starting to wonder if one of the reasons she might've stopped eating is because her teeth might be grinding. I give her wet food and it sounds like she's crunching on something, I...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    Haha, she has no name, it's just cat. I never really thought of a name for her, I'd always just call her kitty or cat and it stuck. Yeah it's Denamarin, 90mg tablets, little blue ones, so hard to get that pill in her, but she takes it after intense struggle. Just picked up some Meow Mix wet...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    New test results today. Appearantly the liver isn't that bad, they said there might be some kind of blockage going on between the liver and small intestine causing bile buildup. She has been eating, and I've moved all facilities to an isolated room so she can do whatever she has to do in peace...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    I asked a bunch of questions, he won't give me a definitive answer until the tests are done, the tinging of the skin is liver problems yes, but until he pinpoints it he won't tell me, but he did mention fatty liver, prolly what it is. She's eating like a champ right now, not throwing up either.

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    I called the vet and had her in yesterday on everyone's recommendations, I told the vet that we've been going there for some time and that I really need him and he was happy to meet me there. He gave her an IV to hydrate her, and some kind of shot, don't remember what. Got a few cans of some wet...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    Okay so she just chowed down 1 1/2 cans of Fancy Feast (the kind in the plastic container, hopefully as good as it can get at the grocery store, it's like 1.25 per, pure ingredients), I hope it stays down. I haven't seen her vomit nor have I been told she's been vomiting. We'll see what the vet...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    Thank you for all of the replies guys it really means alot to me. I have an appointment first thing Monday morning with a family vet who's taken care of all of our animals who's very good. The only reason I've waited so long was because the guy wasn't open over the weekend, and none of the other...

    Can anyone help me? What's wrong with my cat

    I've had my cat since she was a kitten for about a good 4 years now. No health problems to speak of ever. She's always been pretty quiet and keeps her distance from strangers, but has always been affectionate to me. About 1 1/2 years ago I moved out of my old house and moved in with my aunt who...

    Violent cat attack (nothing like it ever before)

    Okay it's been some time since I've posted here last, but this is the only place I can trust when I need some serious info, so , the situation: A few months ago my family essentially split apart due to financial troubles, not too embarrassed to say, times are tough these days. I moved in with...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Well it has been close to 5 days and sadly he has not improved at all. I really have no idea what to do at this point. I have literally no money now and my dad is self-employed, so we really can't afford hundred+ dollar vet visits until we find a solution to the problem. His breathing is still...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Yes, the doc suggested fishy smelling wet food, I got some of that after dropping him off at home from the vet. I got the gourmet seafood Fancy Feast, he ate it right up. The little guy will almost always be with company, my stepmom loves him, so he's always on the bed with her, she doesn't work...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Okay so I took him, they gave him an antibiotic shot or a vaccine, the guy was indian so it was a little hard to understand him haha, but they also gave me some amoxycillin trihydrate drops, twice a day, and some eye cream because his eyes are infected as well. They said in a week to 10 days his...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Yes, wow you people really do know your stuff, this site is a blessing, I JUST called the vet and they said they can't neuter him until he's 100% because he could die when he's drugged just as you said, he has alot of trouble breathing, when he exhales from his nose he makes a snot bubble, and...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    We were given a list of all the vets that will honor the certificate, so I will be calling each one to see who can get to him the fastest, I'd really like him checked over. In all honesty I can't see an impossible solution to this poor little guy's problems, I mean if he's stuffed up there must...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Thanks for your input, this really has reduced my worries substantially, are male kittens sexually active at 5-6 months? I really didn't do much research on that as a possibility, so I'm not well educated in that subject, but yes that is a definite possibility I'm sure, I also figured it would...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    So it's something cats can live with comfortably as long as treated properly? Of course I'll administer whatever is needed to make sure little Domino can live and breathe comfortably, but as the pound said he doesn't respond well to medication, they said to give him a dose in the morning, and...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Yeah I've been doing that, I moved her to my room even though she isn't happy about it, later on I'm going to move her litter box and food in here and just buy new facilities for the kitten so they avoid contact atleast as much as possible. I have the certificate to get the kitten neutered and...

    FHV-1, how do I deal with this?

    Hello everyone, I'm new here, registering on the same day that we brought a new kitten into our lives. What I would really like to know is how can we effectively deal with the problem? The pound didn't seem at all too informative when we were signing papers, we walked in and saw Domino, a black...
