Vomiting

• Cat sudden weight loss and lack of appetite

  Posted on 2009/01/31 by User

  Hello, our cat had renal failure last August, we took "Teddy" to a animal hospital and they gave him tests and lactate ringers solution to get rehydrated. All the levels came back to just about normal. This past week, my wife noticed Teddy getting dehydrated again so she took him to the vet and they gave him more fluid and additional blood work. When she brought him home, Teddy was very alert and active. Now, he has not eaten for the last few days as we continue to give him the ringers fluid. The vet put potassium fluid in the bag for preventative reasons due to a low/normal range of 3.7. We have given him 2.5 mgs of pepsid twice a day, but still no appetite....

  Teddy'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.

• Is Kitty OK?

  My cat has barfed twice recently (not furball) and has come inside limping. This morning I checked and she was still limping. Why is this happening and are the barfing and limping related?

• Disinfecting home and protecting a new kitten from feline panleukopenia virus

  Posted on 2009/03/27 by User

  My family adopted a kitten from a local italian market here. it was seemingly healthy and had a new kitten appt. scheduled for the following week. He never made it that far b/c he suddenly became ill and died at the vet ER of feline panleukopenia virus. Now we are in the process of adopting another kitten, a maine coon from a breeder. It has been vaccinated. I have not brought it home because I am afraid that even though it has had 2 sets of shots that it still might get infected from residual virus here in the house. Also the Mother died during childbirth so they were hand raised and missed out on the important colostrum. What can I use to clean and kill the virus in my...

• Vomiting from Amoxicillin

  Posted on 2009/04/11 by User

  My 2 year old yellow lab tore off a nail and is being treated with antibiotics for mild infection. She is 85lbs and takes 1000mg of amoxicillin twice a day. For the past two days she has vomited her food back up hours after eating it. I assume it is due to the drugs. Can I cut back her dosage to something she can handle, until I can see my Vet on Monday?

• PLEASE HELP!

  Posted on 2009/08/29 by Heather

  My cat just sits over his water dish (as if to drink by osmosis) and sometimes I can get him to start drinking it...but when he first touches the water he kinda sneezes. I caught him sitting there earlier with his chin submerged in the water. WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP HIM? I DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE OF DEHYDRATION...Please Help.
