Without knowing the extent of the injury all I can advise is to try to keep her quiet and calm and monitor for any trouble breathing or discomfort. Signs of breathing difficultly, trouble walking, dissension of the abdomen, bleeding, changes in attitude that include panting, inability to get comfortable, or any sign of distress warrant an immediate trip to the closest emergency clinic. Please see the vet tomorrow and I expect they will do a thorough exam and provide pain medication (please don’t use an over the counter without the vets ok), and antibiotics.
My cat is in pain… I don’t know what happen.. but he cries, he’s lying on the ground hardly breathing, moments later he pees while lying… I couldn’t take it to vet cause of the location we are in. Please i need to save my cat, please help me.

9/23/16 2 yr old Maltese has IVDD and has a cervical issue. We didn’t take him to the neurologist, but chose to treat with medication. He was paralyzed is all but one front leg. Never lost deep pain. It’s been two weeks of crate confinement and he is much better. He can sit and has even stood a couple of times.
My question is, how long does he need to stay confined in a small space? Do i let him try to stand?
my cat is acting different lately she is sleeping more and not really wanting to do anything and when we touch her on her belly she meows like she is in pain does she have cancer or is she sick?

I have a 9-year-old 5 pound chihuahua with a collapsed trachea. He has been on hydrocodone on and off for a few months now, and it does not seem to help at all, even at the maximum dosage. He was put on steroids which worked well for the first 2-3 weeks, but they stopped working all together before he was even done taking them. Is there any other medication out there that could possibly help? He is still eating, drinking, going to the bathroom etc without any issues, just a horrible constant cough that keeps him up half the night and I’m certain must be painful for him.

My 1 year old cat has been diagnosed with FLUTD last night. They gave her fluids and a pain med, along with prazopan (is that right?) I haven’t noticed her having went pee yet since they empties her bladder…. Is this something I should be concerned about?
I rescued an abandoned 10 day old kitten. Now 16 days old. just starting have diarrhea and now sore red bottom. Appetite is waning. Also meows constantly as if in pain. Please help!
Before I provide details, I plan on taking her in to the vet tomorrow as her regular vet is closed to. I’m hoping someone will be able to provide me with what I can do in the meantime. My three year old dog is in alot of pain in her hind legs and when I lightly touch her left hip down to her leg she yelps. She cant walk but still has a little feeling in both legs. I have tried almost everything to help relieve some pain but it doesn’t seem to be working.

Andrea Cox Probably the best thing right now is to make her comfortable until tomorrow. Try to keep her from moving around too much. A crate or dog travel pen is commonly used to avoid moving around. I would place her inside.. right after she uses the bathroom one last time and given some food or water. Don’t keep touching her where it hurts and don’t fuss over her just keep calm and relaxed. Good luck.

Dawn Ferara, DVM Unfortunately there is no pain medication you can give her. Keep her calm and laying down. You can also try ice or heat to her painful area.
My name is Ankush Singla from India. I have my friend from turkey. She has a dog of breed mixture of wolf and Burmese …so we can say he is Burmese wolf . From last 7 days he is not eating. He is around 11 years old. She took him to doctor, he prescribed some medicines and giving some liquids to him through glucose bottles. But after three days of treatment, still hr is not eating…lay whole day and sad too. Before that he was never like that. What should she do ?,please help us because we can not see him in pain.

PK Dennis Often when a dog decides to stop eating it means that they are going to die. Eleven is an old dog when it is mixed with wolf. Since the dog has been seen by a doctor I would suspect there is not much to be done for this dog save to make him comfortable (manage his pain).
So sorry to hear of his troubles.
He also has been panting and having periods of breathing rapidly which tend to happen with him. He is eating and walking and going to the bathroom normally. He suffers from hip dysplacia and arthritis but I cant tell if it is pain related. The concerning thing is the labored breathing.
I’m sorry to hear about your cat. He desperately needs an examination to help understand what might be going on. A veterinarian will look, listen and feel him all over and from there try to give some guidance on what might be going on. Even with this it is sometimes necessary to perform a blood analysis and radiographs. The only advice I can give you is to see a vet immediately. I hope he is ok
It sounds like an emergency and you really need to find a vet asap.
