    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Aww sorry to hear that. It is so sad when someone you love passes. Human or not. Sorry :-( I am pretty confident that this is not the case with Manny. There was a list of symptoms regarding the eye and none of them seemed to apply. And cancer was my main vets concern when we brought him in...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    I looked it up and it doesn't seem to be what manny has going on. It is most common in white cats with prolonged exposure to sunlight and manny is solid black and is strictly and indoor cat. Also the list of symptoms with this on the eye doesn't seem to be right either. Which is good news...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Don't worry. New ideas/ theories as to what might be wrong with him are why I posted on here. The thing is the optomologist was the third opinion. At my Vets office there are two vets and the both suspected cherry eye but wanted him to go to a specialist to ensure that because of all of his...

    What kind of food are you feeding them? So now the kitten is vomiting and not the female 6 yr old? And I know that wrenching sound and it is bad. Ugh...poor kitty.

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    His eye has not improved. We were given antibiotics and that didn't help at all. The optomologist said it is cherry eye which is common in dogs but very rare in cats. It is genetic. The only way to fix it is surgery where the make an incision in his eye socket somewhere and stuff the thrid...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    He is on the prednisolone strictly for the asthma. He is on the prednisolone rather than the prednisone because apparently cats have to turn prednisone to prednisolone before it has any affect. It is better for long term use. It started with the vomiting. He was vomiting like 3-5 times a day...

    cats been vomiting for a week!!

    Watch her head when she has those gagging fits. If her head goes patella to the floor she might be having breathing problems. My cat has asthma and he was pucking and having gagging/wrenching fits and we took him to the vet for that. She noticed his abnormal breathing and did a chest X-ray and...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Yes you laid that out exactly right. He is on predailone (excuse my spelling) which is a steroid for the asthma. We feed him blue buffalo indoor cat food. He was eating Science diet before that and that is what he has been eating since we brought him home from the shelter at 9 weeks old. He gets...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    No. Our vet has never offered an ultrasound. She thinks the vomiting is cause by the spasms that he has due to his breathing. She thinks he has extra fluid in his lungs and he is "coughing" up this gunk not necessarily vomiting. We got the prescription diet for his urinary issue. After...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Thank you very much! My poor buddy is still not doing well. He is at the vet right now for a bladder/urinary issue that occurred seemingly out of no where. Last night we noticed him sitting in his litter box for about 20 min. Upon investigation we found that he did not go at all. He was also...

    Please help Manny!!! -breathing problems, vomiting and "cherry eye"

    Hi! I have come to this site to see if anyone has any idea what is wrong with poor Manny. He is 5 years old and a strictly indoor cat. About a year ago he was diagnosed with feline asthma and was put on an oral steroid to open his airways. We had brought him to the vet originally because he was...
