    Question about my new kitten's health

    Since she got home she still loafs around a lot... I wouldn't call it lethargy, just sleepiness. Before we brought he in you could tell there was something wrong, like she couldn't move and didn't have the will to, now she is moving a lot... She'll go get some water and purr when you pet her...

    Question about my new kitten's health

    I've read the same things, so I expected the worst. But she is home now sleeping, nestled right next to my wife. It is great to get her home... Besides being messy from not grooming herself and a hoarse meow... She is her normal self... Or she is trying to be. She wants to run around and play...

    Question about my new kitten's health

    I hope she gets better and I will do what I can. It is getting so hard, it cost me over $2,000 to treat my kitten Sybil who ultimately passed away last month. Now they gave me a $1,000 estimate for the next 48 hours. The spirit is willing, the bank account is getting strained.

    Question about my new kitten's health

    Well she was 7 weeks when we got her, making her 8.5 weeks old now. She hasn't had any problem going to the bathroom since we got her. In fact she goes to the bathroom a lot. Up until this morning she has been extremely playful all the time, so I don't think she was sick and just not showing...

    Getting very worried about my Cat.

    As it turns out she had a very serious heart condition that we didn't know about. The anesthetic used during her spay aggravated it and sent her into heart failure. We did everything we could to try and get her out of heart failure but she didn't respond to any medication. This morning she...

    Getting very worried about my Cat.

    I don't know enough details to give you a medical explanation. But I think it is congestive heart failure, as they are trying to dehydrate her to lessen the fluid around her heart. We called a few minutes ago, it has been a few hours since treatment began... There hasn't been any improvements...

    Getting very worried about my Cat.

    Our vet told us that he couldn't hear the murmur anymore and that it was safe to do the procedure. He didn't do any kind of blood work. He only did a standard exam checking vital signs and whatnot. The center that my Cat is being taken care of at isn't listen in the providers section of the...

    She is now at the best emergency clinic in the area. They say that being under the anesthetic may have aggravated a heart condition and she is now in heart failure. They have her in an oxygen tank and gave her diuretics to help with the heart failure. They are giving her a 50-50 chance of...

    Getting very worried about my Cat.

    Was your cat on pain meds? I am hoping that is the only thing that is wrong, she isn't on pain meds so she is dealing with the pain naturally and it is taking longer to get back to her normal self.
