I Need Help Which Is Perhaps Very Late But Even Though I Want…
Hi Doctor,
I need help which is perhaps very late but even though i want to know something serious.
Recently last Sunday i lost my son he was German Shepherd 3 yrs only.
Since last week Wednesday he wasn’t eating we took him to one vet care in but that doctor without taking his blood sample. Just gave him injection course of antibiotic for three days when we told him that what happened he said nothing just insect bite. Which i had a doubt on second day again we told that he hasn’t eaten anything please examine he didn’t just gave him injection.
He said that he is OK on last day we also told him that he is not eating and his poop was red and sticky he ignored it. Suddenly on Saturday night around 20:00pm he started showing neurological signs we cried badly we called that doctor he didn’t pick up .
We rushed our boy to other Vet but unfortunately he tried level best to save him but his body was having no fluid and he died on Sunday.
Please help me into this matter what made that we lost him he was very strong. PLEASE HELP ME so that i can know what made him to die.
I WANT TO GIVE JUSTICE TO MY SON’S SOUL
Thanks and Regards,
Ankeet

We have 3 two week old kittens. The mother died. We have been feeding them kitten milk from Walmart but they are not having bowl movements. What can we do to ensure these kittens live ??
My dog has just started to develop a red bump on the top of his front paw. Its the only one he has. He doesn’t seem to notice it. It seems to be getting a bit bigger over time.

My Cat, Stella, Is Seeming To Have A Hard Time Passing A Hairball…
Hi there!
My cat, Stella, is seeming to have a hard time passing a hairball. She will have a coughing fit and then lay down and moan and breathe loudly for about 10-45 minutes after her fit, purr and then go to sleep.
I’ve tried giving her hairball assistance treats but it hasn’t seemed to work. She just can’t seem to get the hairball out. Is there anything I can do to help her?
Thanks.

Hello, my kitten is about to become 1 year old now, she has had several health issues that stopped recently and last was a gastro anteritis ( kept vomiting and got dehydrated) that started just around the time I changed her food from Burns to Orijen kitten (about 2 weeks later). I have her on Burns again now as recommended by my vet until she’s 1yo and am considering changing for a grain free food however I am not sure which one to chose. I do consider trying Orijen again however the protein level in that food is much higher than the level she is on right now. My cat is an exotic shorthair neutered female. Here are my 3 choices for the new food:

Would you be able to give me some advise or personal opinion?

my dog anit had a poo in two days what can I do to make him go
My cat has not eaten in over 8 hours. It has been a hot weekend here. Could that be the cause of my cats loss of appetite

Kelly Furgason Hi Jen,
There could be lots going on. Certainly the heat could be a reason. Is your cat an outside cat? If it’s an inside cat be sure that your cat has access to fresh water too. Try a different type of food–like stinky canned cat food or can tuna to see if you can get your cat to eat. Make sure you have a fan to circulate air if it’s inside to help with the heat.
If you cat continues to not eat and isn’t drinking or peeing or pooping, please contact your vet.
good luck!

Lauren-Emma de Lancey Keep your cat cool and hydrated , fresh water and a fan would be good .
My dog has a place on her side it the size of one of her tits but looks like it is filled with blood and every once in a while it will bleed a little bit what is it.
I am so sorry your dog went through this, you must be devastated to have lost him in this traumatic way.
If you want to take this further then I suggest you write to the Organization who deals with Veterinary Complaints in your Country. I’m in the UK so don’t know who it is, but I’m sure you will find them online.
You would need to send all the notes/invoicss from the Vet who dealt with him and also possibly a Report from the last Vet you took him to.
It is really not ethical for us to comment about this on here. However, I am very sad this has happened to your dog. My thoughts are with you.
Dear Julie .
Thanks for your valuable reply and yes it is very traumatic for us even we are hiding it to our dad who is in his business trip to India he loved him alot I don’t know what to do once he come should we tell him because he is a diabetic patient
did you get a necropsy done? that’s the only real way to determine what caused the death of your dog.
i am very sorry for your loss. it hurts, when we lose them young. i know your pain – i lost a puppy to a birth defect a couple of years ago and it still hurts to think of him. please give yourself time to grieve. if you truly feel the vet didn’t do everything he could to save your dog, then yes, contact the governing body in your country. if your location is correct, and you’re in Tanzania, here’s the website: http://www.mifugouvuvi.go.tz/vertinary-council-of-tanzania/
Thank you so much Laura for your kind words and concerns also thanks for giving me the link of website
this is going to sound really, really weird, but…if you have grief counseling in your area, consider it. it was one of the best things for me. it really helped me deal with the death of my puppy. he was my first dog, and the suddenness of it was such a shock to the system that i really didn’t know what i was going to do or how i was going to recover.
i wish you solace, Ankeet.
I’m so sorry for your loos.I’m just Pomeranian owner and don’t have enough experience about dog.But I had same disaster and I just want to sympathy with u.
My 3th months Pomeranian died 5 months ago. He had same signs (red poo.don’t eat.throw out some foam from his noise)soooooo bad and I just cry all of the time.That was distemper one of the worst and deadly dog’s illness.His vet did any things he can.2 midnight we keep him in ICU.some nights use pulmotor .I tried to help him and I believed he could survive But he Could’t he died and made me lonley..
I’m so sorry abou it 🙁
Counselling helped me too Laura though my boy was 16 and had always been there. Its very hard to deal with.
Honestly is always the best policy Ankeet. If you dad your dog died for another reason you will have a lifetime of keeping a secret from him. You did all you could it wasn’t your fault. I lost a puppy from our last litter due to a Vets mistakes and the nurse who was looking after her. The Vet admitted it and paid compensation…but it didn’t bring her back. I do know how you feel and I would take Laura’s advice and seek counselling to talk it through. It does help. Thinking of you x
Well I can’t know if it’s too late to examine his body because he died on sunday 30th Aug 2015 now I don’t know if it’s body will be ok or not if yes then I will go for examining the body so that the other Vet who gave injection should be stopped from practising his services he is not a qualified one I think so .

i read an article that i agree with quite a bit…it said that people grieve as much for a lost pet as we do for lost people. i think it’s because we spend SO MUCH time with our pets, and they give so much love to us.
it hit right as i was dealing with my loss, and it helped.
Ankeet, this might help you like it helped me. http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/the-death-of-pet-can-hurt-as-much-as-the-loss-of-a-relative/2012/02/21/gIQALXTXcS_story.html
I’ve just read the article and agree with it too Laura. I’ve felt that grief myself and its easily as deep if not deeper than losing a family member. I’m feeling it agajn through my dear friend who has just lost her Great Dane from bone cancer. I wish i could help her through it but its your own private hell of pain.
people who say “it’s just a dog” or “it’s just a cat” or hell, “it’s just a turtle” really don’t understand. and i pity them. they’ve never experienced that kind of love or grief.
there needs to be more dialog about the grief that comes with losing a pet.
