    Cats are obligate carnivores.  They do not need and cannot digest plant matter.  Don’t give him carrots.

    Seriously.  Don’t.

    Why would you want to give your kitten carrots?  I agree with Laura don’t feed him carrots!

I Know That He Underwent Neutering On 7/7 So 5 Days Ago, He Seemed To…

I know that he underwent neutering on 7/7 so 5 days ago, he seemed to have some discharge coming from his incision site. I asked the woman at the desk about it and she said it was ok but he seems lethargic and its still leaking, he doesn’t lick or bite it since he is always sleeping. I’ve kept him with me from the moment I got him because I’m worried for him.

    Does anybody have any advice?

    Has he been to your vet yet?  If not – all new dogs and cats NEED to be seen by YOUR vet for an introductory visit.  Get that done before the end of the week and ask that vet.

    I plan to take him to the vet asap. I had just adopted him yesterday and I was so worried but this morning he is active and trying to explore. He seems to be doing better. He isn’t leaking anymore and he was definitely interested in his water again. I called my closest emergency vet last night and they gave me some peace of mind and told me the only real red flag is his disinterest in food but that could be the change in environment since his discharge was clear and he Seems to have no problem in the potty department.

    I didn’t read too far into it, but it sounds like it’s toxic if ingested.  I would thoroughly wash the wound again and put a cone on your cat to prevent it from licking the wound.

    Thank you! I’ve throughly washed him, although he hates me now. And making sure he’s drinking plenty. Still being his annoying self, so I think he’s ok!

How Know If Your Boxer Dog Is Dream Or Have Seizures When My Dog Sleeping…

    Most dogs are dreaming when things like running and twitching happens.  It’s a normal part of their sleep pattern.  What makes you believe this might be seizures? 

  2. Dawn Ferara, DVM

    Seizures are very different, even scary.  Normally they happen when the dog is initially awake and the dog can not be aroused from a seizure but can be from a dream.

  3. PK Dennis

    If you think it may be a seizure,  try to wake the dog (call by name,not by touch so you don’t get bitten). Try getting a video to show to your vet.

I was just wondering, how can you tell wether a cat has a sprain or a broken leg?

    This would require a vet visit for x-rays and experienced hands on the cat.  In the interim, I would keep the cat confined to a dog crate to keep him quiet.

Hi. My Dog Has Been Puking For Three Days. Mostly At Night After He Has…

Hi. My dog has been puking for three days. Mostly at night after he has drank a couple gulps of water, but always after drinking. He has been to the vet where he was given a penicillin-like medicine that’s white and came with a syringe as well as some pills for nausea. The problem is that my family will be leaving for a cruise soon and this includes close relatives so he will have to stay at a kennel or something. What should I do? Can they take him if he’s sick like this? I’m extremely worried.

    Honestly, I wouldn’t leave while my dog’s that sick.  But that’s just me…this is why I get vacation insurance.

    Call the vet and talk with them about this.  They may have boarding options.

Hello, My Cat Came Home Limping. Only One Of Her Back Legs Is Affected. She Is…

Hello,
My cat came home limping. Only one of her back legs is affected. She is in pain, however, her leg looks normal and she is otherwise healthy. There is no swelling that I can see. Could it be a sprain or muscle injury?

    Thank you for responding so quickly. She is resting in our garage right now

  2. jen Hohman Post author

    Update: Rugrat is climbing our garage attic stairs. She can put weight on her leg but you can tell she’s in pain. Other than that she is eating, drinking and using her litter box as usual.

    My cats ALWAYS do a little something to there selfs , an when they were smaller , they would climb on things an jump off an limp for a day or two an then be fine . i took him to the vet after the first time an they told me it was a sprain an another time it happened to my other cat there was nothing wrong with him , he was just limping lol so sometimes unless you see a wound or they look badly in pain i honestly wouldn’t worry too much unless they persist to stay off the leg longer than 24/48 hours
