I know onions cause anemia and he isn't eating any, just regular good quality dry food and some carefully balanced raw. Thanks for the links, they are really interesting.Originally Posted by cloud_shade
May I ask what food you're feeding him? You've probably already done this, but I just want to be sure that you have checked to see that it has no onions or garlic. Onions and onion powder can cause hemolytic anemia. Ingesting too much zinc is another possible cause, and zinc can be found in all kinds of objects including coins, certain rash creams, and other household items.

I don't have any personal experiences to share, but I wanted to be sure you knew about these other non-immune types of hemolytic anemia that could potentially be related to your case.
Thanks, this made me feel a lot better.Originally Posted by Shorty14788
But with all of the cases I have seen working at a vets office, I have never seen one not make it. It may take some longer then others (I have seen some battle it for up to a year) But I have never seen one not make it.
