Hello!
Thank you for helping this kitty.
I am happy to help, but a few things are important to remember; I do not know all of the local diseases to your area. We live in very different places and animals get exposed to different diseases in different places.
Based on the history and response to treatment so far I think the antibiotic was warranted and may need to be provided every so often to manage secondary infections due to severity of the cats condition.
I also think that there is a chance this could be one of the following:
Infection (fungal or bacterial)
Immune mediated (pemphigus/lupus)
Or cancer (squamous cell, etc)
To diagnose these you may need biopsy or cytology. I would try to resist treating without some ability to rule something out. (Steroids and fungal infections can make things worse).
Please keep us posted. Very best of luck.
Krista.
I would imagine something keeps her up. Just like humans. Does she have a bed in your room and a reliable command to park her butt somewhere? Perhaps putting her there if she won’t settle is a way to handle it?
thanks Laura. I had thought of putting one of her beds in my room which I will do tonight and see how it goes. Perhaps I snore which may upset her.
Hello,
I would guess because your dog is their own person. They have their own wants, needs, thoughts and desires. Maybe she’s too hot, or you snores, or you talk and tell in your sleep. Oh wait. That’s my husband. If he ever asks why my sleep is interrupted answer the same. You can put a camera on yourself at night and see if any of my ideas pertain.
