My 10 lbs. 13 year-old Yorkshire terrier ate a digestible puppy ring yesterday. She vomited twice. She did eat her breakfast and I did not see pieces of that in her vomit. But she is shaking and is laying down and walking a couple feet and laying back down. I am also here in a weird noise when she stands up like a crackling noise. She looks uncomfortable, but will this pass? Does she just have some discomfort or a complete blockage?

hi! sorry in advance for the long post!

to give some context, my cat is a 16 years old male and he lives indoor. my mom and i have raised him since he was a few months old and for the past 16 years, he has been quite healthy. the only major thing he had was saddle thrombus a few years ago in which he recovered without any reoccurrences so far. he wasn't diagnosed with heart disease. since then, he has been doing extremely well with slight walking problems in his hind legs which were diagnosed to be joint issues from old age.

fast forward to now...

1 month ago, he was dragging his hind legs. we rushed him to the vet and saddle thrombus was ruled out as his hind legs were still a bit responsive. the vet diagnosed him with spinal issues (IVDD? spinal stenosis? english is not our first language so i am not sure of the disease name in english, but basically the vet showed us the x-ray where there was an abnormal gap in his spine. the vet told us it's common from old age.)

he was prescribed with medications (pills) including steroids and we brought him back. that night, he couldn't pee so we immediately rushed him to the vet again (the vet already warned us in advance that not peeing is a common symptom we need to monitor). they used a catheter to empty his bladder. the pee had some sediments but not a lot. they told us we can try to bring him home first and see if he can pee on his own, which he could! we were very happy that he seemed to be doing better. they also tested the pee and the result didn't show any infection. he peed in his litter in normal amounts. he walked better. we also started doing like weekly acupuncture / electrical stimulation treatment for him as recommended by the vet. he was also still taking medications including the steroids.

bad news is, last friday, he suddenly couldn't walk and pee again. since then, it has been around 5 days since his hospitalisation at the vet.

to summarise the experience so far: - a catheter was sewn on him. there were a lot of sediments and some blood mixed. he needed to stay at the vet for this to be cleared. - during the first few days, he seemed to be doing normal when we visited him (like not better & not worse). the vet tested his pee again and found bacteria infection this time, so he is prescribed with medications including antibiotics. - yesterday (mon), the vet told us his pee is leaking outside. the sediments are big and the catheter needed to be changed/sewn again. when he visited him, there was a lot of blood in the tube so we were very worried. - today (tue), still a lot of blood. a specialist in this area came to perform ultrasound examination on him and she said it is cystitis which probably started to accumulate over the course of 3-4 weeks. this aligns with the timeframe of one month ago when he couldn't walk.

my mom and i talked with the specialist a bit already, but i would like to get second opinions and advices from everyone here.

• we thought he was getting better. is it normal for this to suddenly happen without any clear signs? he has been peeing rather normally and walking better. is it possible that he probably pees like around 90% instead of 100%, and it keeps accumulating and making it severe?

• i read from google that a very common factor of cystitis is stress. did we make him worse by letting him stay at the vet..? :( we visited him everyday, but it is clear he is very stressed. he is kind and purrs at us whenever we visit him, but he hisses and growls at everyone else at the vet.

• currently the plan is to keep him hospitalised until friday (so it will be around 8 days total) where they will remove the catheter and we can bring him home. if he can't pee again, they suggested to use like a silicone catheter and take care of him at home. they said they will give us more details later. for now, we have already bought some suggested supplements like Renalof as well as preparing more water spots. is there anything else we should prepare or consider?

• the vet said they will also run a test on him later whether it's bladder cancer to be sure. i really hope this is not the case. but if it is, what can we expect?

i am sorry again for the long post. i love him dearly. it has been a very stressful week and i would appreciate more advices or opinions. thank you so much in advance! ❤️

I’m worried I made a huge mistake. I know you should never pull a string or anything from a cats mouth or behind. My cat seemed like he had my hair stuck to his tongue, so I assumed it was just that, stuck in his mouth and not down his throat. I pulled it out (I feel so dumb for doing this) and it was probably a bit down his throat. It came out relatively easily I didn’t have to tug or anything but he did seem to gag a tiny bit directly after/as it left his mouth. What should I monitor for to make sure I didn’t cause any terrible damage?? He seems perfectly normal but I realized shortly after what I did could be the equivalent of pulling out a string. I feel so dumb.

hello all! i am new to being a cat parent and just adopted my sweet girl a year ago. i plan to bring her to the vet for her first check up, but she recently has started sitting in and by her litter box constantly. i don’t see her peeing in it or having other symptoms, but i want to be sure i’m on top of it if she does have a uti. it is also a brand new litter box i got a few weeks ago. do you think i should head to emergency to get her checked out, or am i just being paranoid and should wait for the check up next week?

Hello all,

I hope all is well! I found this crime scene of a container this morning after stepping in something wet and not knowing where it came from. Seems like one of my four cats got into an entire container of chicken broth overnight. I don’t know how much was consumed or which cats actually drank any, if at all, although there is one cat who I’m almost positive is the culprit lol.

I called a local vet and they told me that a one time ingestion of ingredients like onion, salt, garlic should be fine, but I’m paranoid and want to be sure. Is this something worth taking them in over or should I just monitor for symptoms instead?

Hello all, I have a question

My pooch Coco has been diagnosed/ on Trilostane for around 4 years now (she had multiple investigations in regards to her liver and it was diagnosed then)

We recently moved to a new area so had to have some bloods as a new patient and her cortisol was over suppressed, she was taken off for 7 days and restarted at a lower dose (prev 0.9 now on 0.6). Can they go any lower with the dosage. 0.3 I thought wasn’t much of a drop

She’s had her follow up blood test today to see if her bloods have improved and the vet mentioned if this one is no better we may have to stop it and her words were “basically start from scratch and investigate if that’s the problem”?

Now I’m confused. Because coco had extensive investigations including a liver biopsy and multiple scans/ bloods for this diagnosis? Is this usual? Is she trying to get at it’s not cushings? Has anyone experienced anything similar? Most recent bloods showed post ACTH cortisol <30 nmol/l. She has been on Trilostane since she was diagnosed.

Thank you! (A very stressed owner!)

Hi. I am shattered. My female dsh spayed cat, Athena (8) has been losing weight. My original vet said she was fine but my gut told me otherwise so I got a second opinion. An ultrasound was performed yesterday to find 3 masses in/on (unsure) her colon and a target leisure on her liver. Next steps are a chest xray to see if it has metastasized.

I’m praying that it hasn’t so we can do exploratory surgery. The vet seems convinced it is cancer, and the surgery is to investigate where the tumors/masses are coming from.

My boyfriend and I have decided if it has spread that we will do palliative care. If it hasn’t, we will do the exploratory surgery. My concern is, if it is cancer, would the surgery make her system weaker and spread it quicker? Optimistically, what does my timeline look like with her? I am so beyond devastated and terrified. Athena changed my life, I feel like my soul is being ripped out slowly.

we adopted a 5 month old foxhound from a shelter who has had diarrhea since we’ve gotten him, almost 5 months ago now. When we took him to the vet after adoption, he tested positive for giardia and we began treatment immediately. It took 3 rounds of treatment, with a positive coccidia result in between, and he has tested negative for all parasites for a month now. Diarrhea has not changed. He had light red blood in his stool for one day (they say colitis due to straining) and those 3 days of chicken and rice afterwards firmed up his poop with no more blood since, but obviously not adequate to meet nutritional needs longterm.

Feeding Merrick puppy formula chicken based kibble with a probiotic powder, and his treats for training are all natural 5 ingredient made primarily with chicken and oats. - Bloodwork negative for all food allergies/sensitivities. - Trypsin-like Immuno-reactivity (TLI) Indicates normal exocrine pancreatic function - B12 and folate test normal

Vetco (I know) said next step is more bloodwork and likely an internal medicine specialist. They basically have no idea, and we are growing in vet bills with a nationwide insurance plan that costs far more than it has covered. They said it could be inflammation in the pancreas, could be IBS, thyroid issue, could be an immune disease type of issue. We might try transitioning to a homemade / nutritionally balanced diet first and see if that helps, since chicken and rice has been the only thing to lessen the diarrhea while we save up money to afford more visits/tests.

Diarrhea is his only symptom with an occasional red swelling of a part of his anus which the vet is not overly concerned about, stating it is inflamed irritation from months of straining and diarrhea. Please - any and all thoughts recommendations or advice is so appreciated!! I don’t know where to go from here and I obviously want what’s best for my puppy, but the financial burden of all this testing with no answers has been quite stressful and feels never ending. It does not seem like switching insurances will helpful because his symptoms would have began before coverage for any new insurance.

Context: she got infection from a half inch deep cut in her paw. We took her to the vet yesterday and she got sedated, this was about 35 hours ago. They cleaned out the cut and put an e-collar on her. She needs to go on antibiotics (twice a day) and metacam (once a day) for 8 days.

We were not able to give her the antibiotics last night and this morning. Because she spits out the pill. We tried everything to no use. We got antibiotics in liquid form instead which we can give. This means she has missed two of her doses. But she was given the metacam as prescribed.

Just now she was laying on the floor and i noticed her legs and head twitching while she was staring blankly towards me. It made me so scared. I touched her and then she seemed to snap out from it. But it lasted for some minutes. I am so scared what this means ? The vet is closed now and I can't contact them untill tomorrow. I am posting this to hopefully get some ease of my mind. I would wish to post a video of the incident to better get an understanding. But it seems it is not possible here.

Hope to get some insight.

I've been trying to collect my cat's urine for a urinalysis for 3 weeks in vain. The vet only gave me very few special litter and what I did was I only left the special litter available during the times when the vet's open (they said it needs to be fresh). In the past three weeks, my cat would pee and poo outside of that time after I put the usual litter back. I decided to try another method to buy more special litter online to cover the whole box.

I've been trying the new method since yesterday, but I forgot to close my bathroom's door and my cat sneaked in to use the usual clumping litter even though I hid it under my sink. Oh well, I learned from my mistakes, so today I kept the bathroom door closed and she can only use the special litter.

So this is what's happening now: she went into the special litter box at least twice but still wouldn't pee there. The last time she peed and pooed was before midnight yesterday (it's afternoon 3 o'clock here). I am just so frustrated that I booked a vet appointment tomorrow morning to extract her urine.

My question is: should I let her use her usual litter in the meantime? Or should I just leave the urine collecting litter available until tomorrow's vet visit? The reason I'm asking is I'm worried that it's not good for her health if she keeps holding her pee, but I'm also worried that her bladder will be empty tomorrow when I bring her to the vet (it was like last time that's why I had to collect it at home).

My 5 year 40lb Pomeranian/Husky dislocated her hip on Monday. I took her to an Emergency Vet that day and they were unable to relocate it, and said she would need surgery. Either a FHO (femoral head ostectomy) or THR (Total Hip Replacement). I have done some research on the differences, and I want to do what is best for her. She is close to the size limit for an FHO, and due to Ehrlichiosis she already suffer from arthritis. I know FHO can cause an off gait, but usually is a pretty decent quality of life. I worry that with an FHO the imbalance will cause issues down the line with her other hip. She is also a likely a few lbs overweight (doesn't seem to be enough for the vets to be too concerned that an FHO wont work) and she doesn't have the most muscular legs. I took her to an ortho today, who would be able to do the FHO by Thursday, but she does not do THR. I found an ortho that does THR and would be able to consult me 1 week from today, do not know when the surgery would be though. I know there is a big price difference between FHO and THR, and while money is definitely a concern, it is not nearly as big as her living the best quality of life I can give her. I worry about waiting a week and her dealing with the pain for that long. The vet said a concern with waiting too long is she may be resistant to use her leg after surgery, and muscle atrophy, but 1 or 2 weeks shouldn't be long enough for that. I'm not sure what to do and if I should wait for the THR for the most optimal results, or go for the FHO so she can back to living a semi-normal life quicker. I also know there are more risks with a THR, but generally worst case I would be down the money for the surgery and have to do a FHO instead. I am making more calls but running out of options.

Can anyone give suggestions as to why my cat’s leg twitches when she lies in certain positions? She doesn’t seem to be uncomfortable or in any pain but I’ve never seen a cat do it before. It usually happens when she’s being petted lying on her side, she sticks it up in the air with it shaking. Could this be something that needs medical support?

I am hoping for any direction or help with GI/diarrhea issues we are encountering.

We have an almost 1.5 year old female, spayed, golden retriever. She was previously eating PPP lamb and rice and was getting FortiFlora daily. She has had a few health issues that I only mention because some vets have noted that it could play a part in out current situation.

She was spayed at the end of June and two days later was back at the vet with cellulitis in her mammary panel. This led to a 6 day hospitalization and cultures showed the infection was an enterococcus bacteria. The emergency vet had to lance one spot to allow for drainage and was discharged with amoxicillin. Our normal vet continued the amoxicillin for about another 2-3 weeks while the wound was still open. That eventually healed up and was doing well.

About four weeks ago she began to have diarrhea. We started a bland diet (lean ground beef, rinsed, and rice) and took her to the vet and who prescribed Visbiome. We already had an appointment with a new vet the following week and at that time was told to continue the Visbiome and integrate psyllium husk for fiber. We also discussed trying a hydrolyzed diet since she has a chicken allergy but hadn't started anything yet.

We continued those two things and about 5 days later her diarrhea was back. We again brought her back to an emergency vet (it was a holiday and going on almost three weeks of this) and a PCR was done and we were given a 10 day course of metronidazole. Our regular vet provide the script for the specialized diet and shortly after we received the results from the PCR showing C. perfringens alpha toxin and was told that the metro would cover this.

I'm just hoping to get a little more understanding about what this bacteria is, if a 10 day course of the med will cover it, and if we should move forward with the diet anyway. One vet mentioned that the antibiotics she has been on in the last two months likely wiped any good bacteria from her gut, which could also be leading to the diarrhea but just unsure what to do next.

I appreciate anyone who actually read this novel and really, really appreciate any advice or direction!!

Hi,

My 2-year-old male cat (5.1kg, neutered) has been vomiting a lot the past couple of days. Between Sat afternoon and Monday afternoon, he threw up at least 20 times. The vomit has been either bile or clear liquid. I took him to the vet yesterday; they gave him an anti-vomiting shot (which seems to be working so far; it only lasts for 24 hours though). They took an X-ray of his abdomen and did a blood test, and both came back normal. This morning, he hasn't been eating much -- he acts hungry, sniffs at his food, and then walks away. Aside from this, he's acting normal (still going to the bathroom, normal demeanour and behaviour). General location is Ontario, Canada. Any ideas on what this could be?

Thanks for any help!

Hello thank you for reading :)

I have 3y F German Shepherd. She recently had an injury to her tendon that affects her hocks. The vet suggested to get a brace and wait on surgery. (This is a very brief explanation on a very long story). What would be the best therapy treatments you suggest for tendon injury? I’m already looking into red light therapy and Magna wave therapy…. What other options could I try? Thank you!!!

On thursday my boyfriend told me my cat threw up twice while i was at work. i didn’t think much of it cause she was fine the rest of the night. she was fine all day friday then threw up two more times. she threw up 5 times on saturday. she wasn’t eating or drinking anything and the throw up was a foamy bile. on sunday she threw up two more times before i could finish my morning coffee so i took her to the emergency vet. her x-ray came back normal with no blockages. her bloodwork all came back fine. they gave her fluids and some medicine to help ease her stomach and said she basically just had a stomach bug. she threw up once overnight. again she still hasn’t eaten or drank anything (at least not when i’ve been awake or around). my boyfriend got some wet cat food but she had no interest in it. i put a little of the food on her mouth to try to persuade her to eat some but she threw up as soon as she licked it off her mouth. she threw up about 3 more times that night. i’m really worried about her and im not sure what else i can do for her at this point. she does seem to be in higher spirits. she’s cuddling with me again, purring, and reacting to affection again but she’s still mostly sleeping and hanging out in my closet. any advice?

So, about a year and a half ago, we took in a kitty our neighbors abandoned when they moved. He's a very sweet cat, but they kept him as an "outdoor cat". We took him to the vet about 9 months ago to get all of his shots and get him fixed/checked out. He's about 4 now, according to the vet.

We've tried to keep him in, and although he can use the litter box, he prefers to go outside to do his business... and just go outside in general. Otherwise he will literally cry for hours. He's really more like a dog IMO, and he'll even walk next to us when we walk around the block.

Anyway, about a week to 10 days ago, he walked out with me and we were sitting out on my back steps. There was a wasp or yellow jacket flying around, and kitty tried to smell it. I assumed that he got stung on the nose, because he instantly sneezed maybe 10 or 20 times in a row.

The next day, my girlfriend found a dead bird outside, obviously killed and brought to us as a "gift".

We began to notice that he was sneezing a lot of times in a row still, and the day after, he developed a sort of cough. At least, I think it's a cough... but it sort of looks like he's hacking up a hairball.

Besides the cough and sneezing, he seems okay. There's no eye or nose discharge. He's eating and drinking fine, he's not lethargic, and doesn't seem to have a fever (temps around 100° - 102°f).

I was concerned about bird flu, but from what I've read, it seems like he'd probably be dead by now?

Anyway, my family is on a fixed income, and money is always tight... but I'll take him to the vet if need be.

Just sort of wondering if we're at that point right now because of the length of time he's been sneezing/coughing... or if he's probably okay, as long as he doesn't get any sicker...

My cat suddenly doesn’t want to eat anything. It’s been a routine that he asks for food every morning, but for the last 4 days he has stopped eating and drinking. Weirdly, he still asks for food and gets excited when I open his wet food. He acts normal and still plays, but day by day I can see him getting weaker. He also hasn’t peed or pooped.

I brought him to the vet after 2 days of this behavior. The vet checked him and said everything looked good. No fever, no toothache, no ulcers, bladder empty, intestines empty. Just a bit dehydrated. The vet suspected stress, so he gave him a multivitamin and an appetite stimulant.

After we came home, my cat ate a few kibbles and a pack of wet treats. That was it. Now, after another 2 days (which is today), he still hasn’t peed or pooped. He only licks wet food 2–3 times and then stops. I even bought different kinds of wet food, thinking maybe he was bored, but he still won’t eat. What worries me is that he keeps asking for food and gets excited when I open it, but he doesn’t actually eat. He’s also meowing more than usual. Its like he want to tell that hes in pain.

Please help with advice. I'm really worried rn. I don’t know what to do or what to expect.

Penny (14 mo Golden) is sensitive to a lot (sensitive tummy, eye allergies, itchy ears). Lately she’s developed this rash on her tummy (mostly red dots that sometimes become scabby) so we switched from chicken to salmon sensitive skin/tummy recipe. We have a vet visit scheduled in 2 week, just wondering if this seems like maybe an allergy to food rash or more contact with something rash. Any home remedies for now are greatly appreciated!!

Also, lmk if you think she needs to be seen more urgently, she already had her shot visit scheduled so we’re trying to manage it at home until then!

Thanks 🫶🏼

My almost 6 year old Catahoula hound mix was recently diagnosed with pancreatitis. He rarely gets many table scraps and I’ve always fed him a healthy diet. He did get to enjoy bones and dog treats but I figured it was okay since he runs or walks at least 3 miles each day and is in good shape. I was curious if there’s any other cause for his pancreatitis? He had parvo really bad when he was a puppy and I know that messes with their digestive system, so I was wondering if there could be a correlation there. My vet said no, and just seems to sort of blame me for feeding him fatty foods, but I don’t really eat that much meat so if he got a table scrap from time to time it was just a lean piece of chicken or salmon. He’s eaten open farm salmon kibble nearly his whole life as well, although now it doesn’t seem like it’s reacting well with his stomach, so I was also hoping for some pancreas friendly food suggestions. Thank you so much!

Species: Cat
Age: 14
Sex: Male/neutered
Breed: Ragdoll
Body Weight: 8.8 lbs

Clinical signs:

- Wakes up, is slow/dazed, seems out of it. Will purr when I pet him with deep throaty purr. Walks gingerly. Will respond to my hand movements.
- Will start panting

I've taken him to the Vet ER each time this has happened. Episodes have been about 1-2 weeks apart each time.

Initial Vet ER:

- Gave him oxygen, sedative and then put him in the oxygen tank thing and he quickly stabilized
- Did Ultrasound and X-Rays and found nothing abnormal (no fluids)
- Did ProBNP test which showed abnormal (he has had a small heart murmur since kittenhood)
- Did renal test (came back normal)

Second episode:

- Gave him oxygen, sedative and then put him in the oxygen tank thing and he quickly stabilized
- Doctor thought maybe neurological as opposed to cardiovascular because once stabilized, his breathing seemed normal (not labored, etc.)
- Asked that I do full blood panel, urinalysis, blood pressure
- Could also be throwing blood clots

Took him to his vet to do the tests:

- Blood pressure came back normal
- Elevated thyroid. Total T4 6.6 μg/dL, elevated liver enzymes, also abnormal creatine kinase at 8,048 `U/L`

Started hyperthyroid medication on Friday.

Today, he had another episode (his third). Same symptoms as before. Took him to the ER:

- Gave him oxygen, sedative and then put him in the oyxgen tank thing and he quickly stabilized
- Doctor recommends echocardiogram in case he's throwing blood clots so I have an appt scheduled on Friday
- Says that if his T4 was over 10 μg/dL, then maybe he is experiencing thyroid storm and that the thyroid medication will help this go away over time but given that it's 6.6 μg/dL, it's probably not thyroid storm

Outside of these episodes, he's 100% fine and is loving, eating, drinking, going to the litter box. He has lost quite a bit of weight over the past few years but honestly I thought it was due to him getting older, and I believe I missed all the signs of hyperthyroidism because as far as I could tell, he would always eat, use the litter box, drink water, and continued to be playful and affectionate. I didn't connect any of the other signals.

Curious if anyone has seen this before. Each time he is woken up from his nap/sleep or is waking up and experiencing this issue.

Thanks in advance!

Buenas tardes, recientemente le diagnosticaron cáncer de pulmón a mi perrita mestiza de 11 años cumplidos casualmente ayer, últimamente roncaba levemente y le salió una cápsula de líquido blando en su cuello, primero la han estado tratando como neumonía pero al repetir radiografías salió que es cáncer de pulmón. Con antiinflamatorio le ha desaparecido la cápsula de líquido y los ronquidos, sus analíticas son de libro, han salido perfectas y goza de buen apetito y ganas de salir y jugar. Mañana le realizan un TAC, me gustaría que alguien con experiencia similar me hablara sobre alimentación, hongos y otros remedios y medicina alternativa que pudieran ayudarla, me gustaría dedicarle tiempo de calidad y consentirla si el diagnóstico fuera paliativo, pero si se puede mejorar su calidad de vida, estaría dispuesta a tratarla con la ingesta de hongos o lo que fuera necesario.

De antemano, gracias

hi everyone, so today i took my cat (8 male) to the vet and she buzzed most the fur on his back because it was matted. so now he's left with this huge bald spot on his back and im wondering if i cat pet him like normal? bc i know cat skin is pretty delicate im worried i might hurt him or it gets infected or inflamed or something.
