Sebastian has blood in his urine and I’m unsure what the cause could be. He’s about 9-12 months old and he’s never had blood in his urine before. Some of it had this grainy sand like stuff in it. He is NOT showing signs of straining when he pews inside or outside. He’s still a happy cat as far as I can tell but I have no idea what could cause this. We don’t have any money so we can’t take him to the vet but I will give her a call tomorrow. I’m extremely worried because we have two other cats. And blood is always a sign. Please give me advise.

My baby Chinese water dragon has a broken forearm, but its still using it just fine. It looks noticeably broken but doesn’t seem to bother it. Should I try to re break it out just leave it alone?

Filippa Lundin this happened with two of my dogs too. Turned out they were gluten intolerant. Maybe you can try cutting gluten entirely out of their diets.

Brett Zurcher Krista, do you recommend trying anything else to try and save money first before derm visit? It is 150 plus meds most of which you can buy online. I know there are lots of anti bacterial microbial drops you can buy. Tee tree oil, vinegar water mix etc etc.

Brett Zurcher sorry i forgot to mention I have paid for 2 cytology’s at the vet and they come back as yeast every time. we have tried 2 prescription drops both seem to do nothing was just looking for another answer. Of course not trying to shortcut but not sure what else a vet dermatologist could prescribe or do that a vet could not. first puppy sorry i am new to this.
Hello I have an 8 week old male puppy named diesel. He had been dewormed and had his first two sets of shots. I’ve noticed he had a quarter size spot near his tail. It’s crusty and has hair loss. I’m very worried
My 9 month old female miniature dachshund was emitting a metallic odor from her back end yesterday. I noticed it, did some google-ing, and shortly after the smell disappeared. My research concluded that it might be her anal glands. But I can’t understand why the smell disappeared (and as of this morning had not returned). She has exhibited no other signs or symptoms (no scooting on the floor, no problems going to the bathroom, acting perfectly normal)
As the mystery continued, we were walking outside to use the potty before taking a drive. After peeing, we got into the truck with her on my lap. I noticed she has made a wet spot on my pants. Assuming it was just some urine from her potty trip, I used a towel to wipe me and her off. That’s when I noticed that coming from her vulva was a thick, milky, yellow color liquid that was accompanied by a fishy smell. This led me to think that maybe she has a case of vaginitis. As the day progressed, both smells and the discharge disappeared. And as of this morning, no trace of either can found. I was already planning on taking her to the vet on Friday, should I take her in sooner? She just finished her first heat last week and I am planning on finding out this week when we can get her fixed.
KAdd additional information to this question …
Cat has bald spot on belly with skin tag type bumps in center. recently treated for allergies. not sure what this is?
This picture is of the biggest skin tag. the others feel just like little bumps (what a human would equate to zits)

dakoda peterson This looks like a skin disorder one of my cats had. Go to a vet it’s very important to figure out what this is exactly because it could be very hazardous to the cats organs if it’s a sign of infection or so other underlying problem.

Alexis Smith What happened with your cat?

Alexis Smith What exactly does that mean? Diego is a boy (don’t know if that gives you more info).

dakoda peterson I got some very afforable meds from my animal clinic. He ended up healthy. I thought it was a nipple too. Male cats have nipples.
The vet said she would have 90 days either way, whether it was removed or not.. This dog is everything to me, I am devastated.
Ultra sound and xrays have been done. Vet sent them off for a specialist to read. He said more than likely it has gone into the liver from the looks of it, but not the lungs.
How can I find out if it is malignant? Should I have her spleen removed?

Elaine Lowry Thank you so much for addressing my situation. You wrote: “The only way to know if it is malignant is to do a biopsy. If you are going to do that do the splenectomy” Does that mean the splenectomy will be the biopsy? There is a Cancer Center for Dogs in Carlsbad, CA, If it were you would you go with an organization like this rather than an individual vet? http://www.cvsangelcare.com/About-ACCC/
So appreciative,
Elaine
She is a spayed female, around 2 years old. She cannot urinate, and has a clear discharge with some blood coming from her vulva.

Ashley Martin ****Also all vets are closed until Monday. I called everywhere, so in the meantime I’d appreaciate any advice
-
dakoda peterson Go to your vet it sounds like an obstruction and it could be dangerous. With no urination your dog could possibly be developing kidney issues as well. Cysts can develops in the liver and kidneys causing blockage. Those are my thoughts
-
julie brader You have to take her to an Emergency Vet now!!!!
If she can’t urinate her bladder will have ruptured by Monday, and thats fatal…..this is urgent you cannot leave it that long.
-
dakoda peterson Animal vets can be called in this is an emergent. Find an animal hospital if possible
Thank you that is very helpful. I will call my vet hospital and describe what’s going on and mention his diet and how to get some medications. We buy friskies for him as wet food and we feed all the cats a mix of everpet dry and new mix origional
