Re: Can someone interpret? (lab results)

Traci, Torah has passed. The vet said her systems were shutting down. I won't go into the details. She was given a last moment of dignity in the end. Thanks for your help-

Re: Can someone interpret? (lab results)

:D Traci, Cyrus is eating now like there is no tomorrow. He is drinking on his own and interacting with the toys in the bedroom. Whatever he had, the clavamox seems to be helping him out. Torah is getting stronger, she still sleeps pretty hard, but I suspect she was outdoors a very long time. She al...

Re: Can someone interpret? (lab results)

Yes the appointment was today. He is on Clavamox and his appetite has returned (catnip helped) The vet is calling this a low-grade infection and wants to sit and wait and see if the antibiotic works.

Re: Can someone interpret? (lab results)

Yes to the testing on Cyrus. All was done. He just feels punky. I can see it in his movements and how he reacts with me when we are sharing time together. He doesnt want to eat this morning at all or drink. I am taking his temp regularly. No spikes, no sub-normal temps. As for Torah, she was so flea...

Thanks Traci- the bloodwork was run because my fear was distemper. I had an outbreak late last year. :( First time I have had this hit and it was ugly. I have since boarded up the kitten room and we use it for storage after I scrubbed the heck out of it and tossed everything movable in the burn pile...

Can someone interpret? (lab results)

Recent rescue, a year old tom (due to be neutered next week) Cyrus arrived extremely dehydrated, hanging head over water bowl unable to drink, refusing food. No diarrhea, no vomiting. Rushed to the vet- received the lab results but can't make heads or tails about what it means. Vet is out of town cu...

Re: Aspergillus inside cat's ear

I concur with Traci- Simba needs a feline specialist looking into his symptoms, not an overworked, frustrated and perhaps not knowledgeable vet. Please stop the dips- they are never supposed to be used long term and you are putting harmful chemicals into this wonderful cats. Ringworm is frustrating,...
