Our vet said this is extremely rare and has no idea what to do. He is making phone calls to universities etc but i was wondering if you have any advice on treatment for her??

Blood in the Urine
Posted on 2009/02/19 by kimI have a cat wgo has blood in her urine for several months now. My vet has done an ultrasound to check for crystals. nothing. Also took a urine sample, by needle directly to the bladder. She has three rounds of antibiotics, one of baytril, two of zeniquin (Had to stop one, half way thru) because she started vomiting, i think a mix of flagyl and zenniquin together. Flagyl for giardia. My questionis the vet has really not told me anything except. she has no bacteria, in the urine. She is still peeing blood, though much less. what would you reccommend my next step to be.

One illness after another, now demodex
Posted on 2009/02/16 by KristyMy vet started Schooley, my cat on pred now for his allergies and said I can go to an allergist to see what he is allergic to. Although during this past month, thinking it was allergy related (I guess indirectly it is due to lowering the immune system) Schooley now has demodectic mange. He has three bald patches around his body and his entire neck and ears are bald. So does my old cat who has bald patches on her sides, legs and rump. I am so upset and I feel terrible for them. They have now been dipped one with lime sulfur and I was sent home with a new spray type to do it at home. I am now washing blankets and sheets that end up smelling like sulfur, every other...

Cat with tail bite
Posted on 2009/02/16 by UserHI My cat was bitten on the base of its tail by another cat. I took him t the vet who cleaned him up and sent him home. The vet said if his tail doesn't start moving it will have to be amputated. The tail did start moving but the wound is still open on top. He keeps licking the ointment off and gnawing at the wound. He even took his own stiches out. I tried to take him to the vet again but was told that he wouldn't be able to see me until Saturday (its monday) and even then he scheduled me into a surgery spot because he thinks the tail has to be amputated. But the tail moves fine, and he hasn't even seen the cat!!!! He seems amputee happy and I do not want the vet...

Retained Testicles
Posted on 2009/02/09 by WendyI have a 17 month old Siamese cat who has retained testicles. He has been operated on both in the abdomen and in the groin area when he was 6 months old but the vet was unable to find either testicle. For the past few months he has been spraying indoors and we are at our wits end what to do with him! He has also had the hormone tests to determine whether or not he is producing testosterone, these tests only confirmed what we already knew! I feel that my vet is not interested in trying to help ... I don’t think the sprays etc will help as he never seems to do it in the same place twice. We have tried spraying him with water ... shouting and throwing him outside when...

Response to original doctor's reply.
Posted on 2009/02/01 by UserTeddy's urinary tract is fine along with no hyperthyroidism. He ate very well after coming back home. His weight stabilized and even gained some. All his values have been brought into range except our vet was concerned about his 3.7 rating in potassium, thus the fluid injection into the ringers bag plus he sent us home with some powder which we give him mixed with water. Thank you very much for your quick response to our first letter/question. Thank you again.
