I'm not quite sure what is going on with my cat.
Details: 11yr old female who is uncomfortable around anyone but her owner.
I notice she developed a cough/wheeze which seemed like asthma back in January. The doctor gave her a steriod shot and also pulled a few teeth.
The cat was fine until mid-April the cough/wheeze came back (assuming the shot wore off). Took her to the vet and they said they would have to give her an x-ray to check her lungs for asthma. They did blood work, put her out with anesthesia and did the x-ray. I picked her up that afternoon and was told she should be given Theodur pills at night for the asthma.
When i brought her home she seemed like the life was sucked out of her and i assumed it was from the anesthesia. I waited 2 days to start the Theodur because she still seemed rather out of it which concerned me. Started the Theodur and noticed she began to stop drinking her water, then stop eating and starting acting grumpy around me (the only person she likes). I assumed it was the Theodur, took her in to the vet and they said she could have liver problems from not eating. The next day I was told her liver is fine but she has blood in her urine with crystals, given antibiotics and sent home. She started to eat a little but i didn't see her drinking. Suddenly she stopped eating and drinking again a week later. On Monday of this week i took her back to the vet and she was given fluids under the skin for dehydration and was sent home with more antibiotics and appetite stimulant and told it was better she stay home because the vet's stresses her out.
It's now been 3 days and she is still acting lethargic and unhappy. I have no idea what is going on and the vet doesn't seem to have the answer. Was it the Anesthesia a month ago, was it the Theodur, does she have a UTI? I'm not sure all i know is that she hasn't been the same since the x-ray/anesthesia/Theodur. All i'm sure of is that i'm scared for my cat's life. She's lost 2 pounds and seems very unhappy.
ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? WHAT COULD BE WRONG?
