Cat seems old and enervated, but is stronger. I have now twice applied a topical antibiotic to the abscessed area – which appears to be healing some. (I am surprised I could touch the animal with a finger – and that is a function of weakness.) It ate pretty well this evening.
I am on the fence on whether to euthanize the cat. I am afraid it will pass away over the fence in the neighbor’s yard.
Right now, I am good with letting it live out its remaining days in this yard, and her shelter.
Hello,
The answer to why this might be happening lies in an examination with your veterinarian. I worry about heart disease in boxers. I also worry about hemoabdomen. Gum color, abdominal palpitation, heart and lungs need to listened to and an orthopedic and neurological examination are needed. This has the potential of being an emergency.
Thank you I am at the emergency vet now as he started seizing as well.
