It doesn’t look like it to me. Of course I am not a vet and I am just looking at a picture. I don’t see a pustule or comedomes.

I’ve heard trupanion was good

With my cat, the SCL was diagnosed via ultrasound. She wasn’t a good anesthesia candidate. She has been on Chlorambucil and Prednisolone since 2021, I think. The ultrasound showed a space occupying lesion in the intestines. I had it repeated a year later I think. This last visit I didn’t do it...

Hi. Wishing only the best for Jakey.

Allot of medication that is made for children has artificial sweeteners in it that are toxic to cats. What are you wanting to use the Benadryl for?

Does she have a fever? If not, I wouldn’t worry about keeping her cool. Also, her body heat will keep the kittens warm.

I just reread that you do give the Gabapentin the night before and the morning of the visit.

Well, if you work in the vet field, every pet you have will have complicated problems. It’s just the way it is. With cats that don’t relax enough from Gabapentin, I have seen Trazadone added, which works nicely. But with your cat already on Prozac, there is a significant risk of sick serotonin...

Hi. It’s not the amount of food. That’s the problem. It’s the dry food. Dry food is very high in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are not good for cats. Some cats are more sensitive to the carbohydrates than others. Those cats will get extremely overweight with the carbohydrates. So she would be...

Hi. I am sorry your cat is painful. I would suggest seeing if you can get a house call vet out to give her an injection of Solensia, if she thinks it is appropriate. She isn’t going to play if she is that overweight. If you are able to feed her canned food only it would be best for her. it is...

They look so much alike!!! Both are beautiful.

She is adorable. She definitely has that kitten expression. Her body condition is a little different with it looking like there is some lack of muscle. But if she was pregnant at a young age, under fed, and then unable to use her muscles properly due to confinement, that could explain that. The...

If she has a history of eating what she shouldn't then it is very possible she has done that again. The way the vet determines if there is an obstruction is by X-ray and or ultrasound. Cats have to feel really sick before they show signs of illness.

Is he urinating? What about defecating? How does his incision look? Is he still being confined or is he out now? If he is out, how active is he being? With a cystotomy, there is always a risk that there could be a problem with sutures closing the surgical site on the bladder. If the bladder...

Hi. Sounds like she is nauseous, If you think about it. She eats a food and then feels bad, she won't want to eat that food again. I don't agree with your vet that she isn't sick. It sounds like something is going on with her. If your vet doesn't take it seriously, then find another vet...
