For 2-3 Weeks. My Kittens Have Eye Discharge On Can Hardly Open His Eyes, Obvious…

for 2-3 weeks. My kittens have eye discharge on can hardly open his eyes, obvious difficulty breathing, sneezing, decreased in appetite, though they still eat… Sometimes I worry because there breathing get’s so shallow, or when my boy is laying in me it’s like breath is being punched out of him every time he breaths, they both sneese, but the girl is worse than the boy with that, and they sleepn so much. They’ve gotten out more than a few times, but they are indoor cats. I’m trying lycine until I can take them to the vet, but they don’t like it so it’s hard to get them to take it, and I’m keeping food and fresh water. I just so worried. I think maybe, it could be a uri, and maybe some autoimmune disorder because they were born from a feral colony and a lot of them have something going on, but what do I do and how can I help them, until I can get them to the vet. I’m so worried.

Our Year Old Golden Retriever Ate Some Chicken Yesterday Which I Had Cooked And Stuffed…

Our year old golden retriever ate some chicken yesterday which I had cooked and stuffed the cavity with garlic. He didn’t actually eat any garlic but is quite lethargic today and has slept a lot. Should I take him to the vets

    I would worry more about cooked bones than the garlic!  It is always better to be safe than sorry — and cooked bones can cause a blockage.  Yes, you should consider taking him to the vet if you are worried.

My female DSH is ~2yrs & suffers from allergies. She constantly has lesions on her stomach. She licks and chews effected skin often. Atopica doesn’t work. for her. I’m hesitant to use steroids for a long period of time. Suggestions?

    this might sound weird, but have you had her thyroid checked?  a friend of mine had a young cat with excessive grooming habits and it turned out to be thyroid problems.

    Have you gotten all grains out of his/her diet?  No grains in food or treats.  Find a grain-free kibble that lists real meat as the first 2 or 3 ingredients.  Real meat will be: beef, lamb, elk, salmon meal, etc.  Do not buy anything that lists “by-products” in the ingredients – they could be nothing more than feathers.

    To help the skin heal you can rinse her once per day (short haired dogs, less often for long-haired dogs, you don’t want her constantly moist) with a mix of 1/3 vinegar and 2/3 water.  Allow this to dry on her skin.  

    Also if you have been using Benadryl try switching to a generic Zyrtec – it often works better for dogs. 

    For the active hot spots try Witch hazel with Aloe, you can find it in any drug store OTC, pat it on with a cotton pad and allow to dry – you can do this several times per day to help reduce itch and help the spot heal.

    Good luck!

What Should I Feed A 1 Month Old Chihuahua Pup?

What should I feed a 1 month old Chihuahua pup?

    Hi Yazmin, have you bred this puppy? One month old is far far too young to leave their mum.

    As for feeding……try a puppy milk formula. Do not give cows milk, puppies and dogs cannot digest it.

    You could also give some runny baby rice mixed with the puppy milk. At one month old the pup should be able to lap. Once a day you could give a tiny ball of minced steak…and I mean tiny, about the size of a peanut to start with. 

    Good luck and I hope the puppy thrives.

    Thank you for ur answer I went to tractor supply and got him some puppy formula 🙂 yes he is young buy the momma rejected them 🙁 that’s y he is not with the mom

My Female GSD Just Can Seem To Keep Any Weight On. She Is Not Very…

My female GSD just can seem to keep any weight on. She is not very active, she sleeps a lot, and is generally quite lazy. She eats the same amount of food as my male GSD, and probably more than him. She drinks water regularly.

    has she been checked for parasites or thyroid problems?  those are my first two thoughts.

  2. Casey Wilson

    I’ve suspected that, but haven’t gotten her checked. I hoping it isn’t that bad

  3. Anonymous

    honestly…thyroid problems are easily managed with drug therapy. i would get her checked sooner than later.
