A cat has a puncture wound up on his shoulder blade now limb and elbows swelling a couple days later

We have a male cat who is almost eight years old. He will urinate in a litter box but prefers to defecate on the concrete floor underneath my oil tanks in the basement. I discovered this earlier in the year. We also have two female cats so there are multiple litter boxes. I moved one of the litter boxes next to the oil tanks and have so far tried three different types of cat litter. I have seen him urinate in the litter box and then go under the oil tanks. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Hi, I’m Zoey Fleischmann’s mom. I’m looking for Dr. Graf. Zoey isn’t doing too well at Bel Air ER vet. Before, we make any decisions we would like to talk to you and get your take on what to do. Bel Air said that they sent ivermectin clinical notes for you to review.

Jack Russell having coughing like hacking fit for like 15 mins straight. Have a vet appointment in a week but is there anything I can do before then?

cat had bloody soft poop, and we found a big long dark brown stringy thing running almost all the way through it. I couldn’t get a picture but it looked like a worm but it wasn’t moving so idk. A few years ago he had a uti but i dont think its that cause he isn’t going back and forth from the litter box and he pee’s just fine and doesn’t seem in pain but idk what else it could be
