:) I cannot bath him, I cannot touch him basically, which is why i cannot use frontline or revolution or advantage or such. I am actually training him not to be scared of us. Even though it might be possible to grab him by force to give him meds, I believe this would simply scare him and waste...
I noticed today that Fireball has tapeworms, I was wondering if anyone can suggest a product and a strategy to give it to him. Since I cannot grab him and force him swallow it like I would for my friendly cats, and I am afraid that mixing it with food won't work either since he might very well...
Not giving right now but good to know how to do in case he will ever need them again. Thank you. Will let you know if these probiotics help him :) -I am pretty confident it will help him a lot--
Thank you for the link, yes it already came up as I was interested in it but I am glad you reminded me about it.
I ordered that and will receive it soon. How much will I give to him? it says 180 tabs, do I give him one per day? Half? I suppose I will crumble it and sprinkle his food?
One of the weruva wet food has pumpkin in it. That is what he gets.
I think that he has always been a lazy cat and sleeping most of the day, but before he was neutered he would have other urges other than food, he would starve himself to stay out all night and walk every house in the block and...
Hi and thank you for offering your help in figuring out how to help Bibi. He is not losing weight, nor appetite. He really gained weight in the last months, he was neutered in early October and have obviously gained weight since. He had more appetite and became more lethargic, such as he sleeps...
That's odd because I usually know how tapeworms look like and this is not like it. I can give him a tapeworm tab, I think I tried to give him some a month ago but failed at having him swallow it all. He actually was tested for worms last month when I had him at the vet and they said he was...
Hi, and thank you for caring about Bibi,
He is doing ok in the sense that his butt looks normal and bright pink and he doesn't seem much annoyed or licking it at all anymore. And he is overall looking fine other than certainly more lethargic than usual, but I attribute that to him having being...
Thank you. Fireball is really such a sweet cat which simply had a bad experience in the past.
He really shows me that he wants to become friend, yet he gets still scared. He is doing good progress and we are happy we helped him. He started to allows us to be much closer to him, yesterday I sat...
So far there hasn't been a lot dramatic changes but slow progress on this. He is doing ok, his stool has somewhat become more firm. His butt is back on pink and not so red and he doesn't lick it as often. He gets a bowl of baby food mixed with pedyalite (and sometimes fortiflora) every morning...
Being back inside is helping him to re-connect once more and again with my other cats, especially with the little Sissi (now 8 months&spayed) that was a kitten back in April. They became somewhat friends. We got to keep her so she and Fireball play together almost every night. When he was in the...
He does not have any underlying condition that justifies my concerns. He is about 2.5 years old and seems in overall good health. He has gained quite some weight in the last few months, probably due to being neutered but maybe this sickness has also made him eat more, which is odd.
Bibi is still having the same diarrhea except it became more consistent in color and consistency. Before the Metronidazole it was almost orange and looked like "bubbly". During the Metronidazole it was smooth, somewhat liquid but darker brown and now that he stopped that, is back to light brown...
Thanks for all the valuable help. I did consider the anal glands issue since the diarrhea might make it impossible for them to normally express, I had watched videos and was willing to take a look at it myself, but my husband refused to assist me so I didn't. I also had assumed the vet would...
I might have to ask or to figure it out from the label of the bill. It says: Hyperthyroid Feline (Superchem/CBC,T4, Free T4) - RefLab (ES). It doesn't say anything else but the vet explained it was a combined blood test that would cover a number of functions.
(Edit) on the fecal exams, I...
So, I am writing this new post for my cat Bibi, initially I thought he might have had a urinary problem but I am pretty sure he is fine on this sense. So his licking problem seemed to be due to diarrhea and the vet visit confirmed no worms, no giardia and his blood work resulted in no issues...
I think that it is safe and I personally don't think it is a very stressful procedure, particularly if your cat has been constipated and didn't have bowels movements in a while then the procedure should bring him relief. I wish you and your cat that it does go well and helps him.
