    Prayer needed for emily please!

    Well it's either a sinus infection or allergies or a combo. She has inflammation of the cartilage where the nasal passage meets her throat. She had some stringy mucus but not a ton. So she got a shot of long acting antibiotic (dexamethasone), subcont fluids, instructions for baby Benadryl &...

    Prayer needed for emily please!

    Well the Vet is wonderful. She spent over an hour talking to me. I showed her the video. She said it could be a few things but it is diffently coming from the back of her throat. So she is sedating her and going to check things out.

    Prayer needed for emily please!

    HI FinnLacey - - sorry I meant IBD (I always say IBS in error).  She is on a grain free diet.  I have CareCredit.  She is making a wheezing sound - it started out as sporatically but now it is pretty steady. No mouth breathing however no discharge from her eyes or throat. I have been giving her...

    Prayer needed for emily please!

    My dear Emily is still gagging and seems to be more frequent now. Per my previous posts I had taken her to my regular vet who suggested the next step would be an ultrasound. I want to do all I can for her but financially I am close to tapped out as I have already spent over 5K with prior medical...

    My 13 yo cat gags/vomits right after she starts purring

    Thanks - I did bring her to the vet on Tuesday  - -  blood work, x-rays were all fine. No fever & of course the adrenaline was pumping she was not wheezing, hoarse or gagging/vomiting while there. So the vet said the next step would be an ultrasound as it could be that the IBS has now manifested...

    My 13 yo cat gags/vomits right after she starts purring

    Thank you Carolina - I am just so worried as she seems miserable. She is usually so outgoing and wants to cuddle. Since this has started she just wants to be left alone.  Even the kitten is avoiding her which worries me as animals always can sense sickness in others.  Can you recommend a good...

    My 13 yo cat gags/vomits right after she starts purring

    Well I started introducing the new food last week Monday. She just started the gagging last night so it could be the new food. I guess I just assumed that  since I have been mixing the two with the larger ratio the old food and since its been over a week that the new food was OK  - -  see what...

    Hello, My cat Emily started gagging / vomiting right after she starts purring.  I took her to the vet and they took blood (will have those results tomorrow) and xrays were clear.  When they palpated her abdomen she expelled gas ("tooted" for lack of a better word) which the vet said is very...
