Hello, my 3 year old cat received an injection of Convenia antibiotics for a small but deep gash. Five days later, with almost no food and little water intake, he is in kidney failure and has a fifty percent chance to live. He has been placed on 48-hour fluids via IV. He was a healthy, good natured cat until he received the Convenia antibiotic injection. I wish we would have brought him into the vet earlier for blood work The vet thought our cat was being stubborn or had stomach problems. If your cat does not eat or drink for 36 hours, get blood work done. It is about100 - 150 dollars -very worth it!! We do not know if our cat will survive. I just wanted to post a caution so that others would know to be careful of Convenia and ask your vets about the drug. It seems to have more lethal side affects than acknowledged.
