antibiotics

Avatar n tn hello my cat had kittens about 6 weeks ago. one of the mothers teets looks and feels really nasty, it is all dried up and flat, thick and yellow looking, there is a big lump under the ***. it looks very painful for this cat. [it reminds you of an older adult that has really thick yellow toe nails; thats what it looks like. ] If you have any more ideas than my, plz let my know.!!!
598892 tn?1219797635 give it a few days and see if they get smaller, and dry up... she probably over produced milk and it has no where to go, but i think it will dry up.
1303813 tn?1303159362 You mentioned the fact that she had a cold? The eye thing is totally related to that, so I would definitely take her back in and get her checked. I'm sure this will go away with antibiotics. Are you keeping her isolated from the other animals? If not.........you should!
Avatar n tn 2 days ago I found 2 kittens about 2 or 3 months old and they have something wrong with their eyes. They're constantly draining a yellowish sticky gooey fluid. The one is worse than the other. For the past 2 days I have been wiping them with a warm cloth and using a eye cleanser I got from fleet farm but they don't seem to be getting any better. Being a single mother I don't have a lot of money for a very.
Avatar f tn My cat is about 2 or 3 years old and she just had her first litter of kittens. The kittens had been eating cat food on their own for about two weeks and weren't feeding off the mother anymore, so we gave them away. Now her breasts are swole bad. She seems to be in pain and they are a little red. What caused this? What can we do to help?
Avatar n tn One of the kittens had a hernia (from a dog attack), and the vet did surgery to fix it, and it seemed fine. The other two kittens in the litter picked on it; sucking it's genital area. It became so sore and red that it started bleeding; so I seperated it out. A day later I noticed diarrhea, then a day after that it was deficating pure blood. I figured it was an internal issue related to the trauma; so I had it put to sleep. But now, one of the other kittens is deficating blood.
Avatar n tn i happen to notice while i was cleaning his eyes that his tongue is yellowish color and looks like a hugh canker sore. and he crys alot. should i take him to the vet or is their something that i can put on it like baby origel while it heals? do you think it might be contagious? please let me know. none of the other kittens have this on their tongue.
Avatar f tn I have a litter of kittens about 6 week and they seem to have a cold.Their eyes mat shut and their noses are runny.what can i do to get them better?
Avatar m tn d swallowed something dangerous). 1h after giving the antibiotics he indeed peed and felt better. He also ate (very little, but still), but I had to feed him chicken broth for 2 days as he refused to drink. 5 days he didn't move an inch, sat up at the most. Few days later he started to take interest in his brothers and sisters and to eat and drink normally, 5 days later he started to walk again. Both of them still limp, and it looks like they limp at least 2 of their feet.
Avatar f tn D thank you so much :)
Avatar n tn s URI as well as beneficial bacteria needed for the kittens to grown and develop. Just as with pregnant humans, it is always a judgement call as to whether the benefits warrants the risk.
Avatar n tn However, I have gotten a couple nasty infections from cat bites and scratches and I am allergic to Tetanus so I end up on strong antibiotics for a couple of weeks.
1303813 tn?1303159362 Most likely it is URI (upper respiratory infection), very common in cats and kittens under stress and highly contageous to other cats/kittens. In other words, if one kitten developed it, the others will get it. The good news is that if treated appropriately, it is rarely life threatening,. The vet will probably prescribe a course of antibiotics. It is also important to make sure the kittens stray warm.
1356258 tn?1277664250 They had eye infections (swollen/red around eyes, so much gunk that eyes were matted shut, upper respiratory) and the vet gave them eye ointment and oral antibiotics for 2 weeks (they finished 2 days ago) and seem to be better except for the occasional sneeze (the other one might be squinting a little today). I am not sure if it was bacterial or viral, but my husband and myself caught it, and the antibiotic eye drops have helped.
Avatar f tn So I made an appt to get her spayed on Jan 6 paying anywhere between $72.50-$117.50 with pain meds and antibiotics because she's preggo. We are all worried of what might happen. I was told she doesnt need pain meds nor antibiotics. Which I think she does because who wouldnt be in pain if they are being opened up?!? I'm just worried about this little girl. All my cats are boys and I am not used to this. What am I to expect out of this?
390388 tn?1279636213 One looks great and has a beautiful coat, and the other one is going bald. Both are playful kittens. What all could cause this all over balding on just the one of them?
637356 tn?1301924822 Nothing was taken and nothing but the kittens toys and cat food was messed with. Looks as if they tried to feed them and were playing with them. I do have a couple of the little kids in my neighborhood that would climb threw my window just to play with the kittens.
Avatar f tn It sounds like she's weak from an infection in her uterus or maybe in the milk ducts from nursing. She really needs to be seen by a vet and probably needs antibiotics. From what I've read about those infections, they can be very serious. If you don't feel like making any recipes, another option is to get a kitten formula milk replacement. What we have in the US is a brand called KMR, I don't know if they carry that in India or not?
12457380 tn?1428840823 s normally walking and well. around 1pm i checked on her again and she was in her box with her kittens. when she saw me she got up out of her box and thats when i noticed she is limping :( its her left back leg. it sounds thats she's in pain when she walk on it so she doesnt really let it touch the ground to the point that she will just lay down instead. what might be the cause of this?? im still observing her right now and its still the same.
Avatar f tn He thinks this problem lies solely in her and her misbehavior and that she should be responsible enough to do as shes told and not rough house with the kittens and should be disciplined more strictly. I think that maybe 4 kittens is too many in a small area with a young child. I don't want this situation to turn into resentment for anyone especially my daughter dealing with a new girlfriend and a "new home" as well.
410475 tn?1262942367 she said she has nursed them back to health, now they are healthy and cuite little kittens. she even is going to get the mother spayed. someone in the appartment complex said that the mom has had 5-6 litters. so my daughter is going to get her spayed then let her go again because she is not allowed pets where she lives, but what should she do with all the babies? I already have 4 cats and I may take one more, but what can we do with the rest of them?
506791 tn?1439842983 They rescued more kittens last week. Have rescued over 40 cats and kittens (THRed the wild adults) and have a small network of fosters healing and socializing the kittens. They've also buried over a dozen that they either found dead or did not survive, since June. Buff and Cooper were among the first half dozen rescued, 1 of whom did not survive.
Avatar f tn Kittens don't have developed immune systems so they get sick easily. Sounds like URI, possibly with conjunctivitis. Probably also dehydrated. He needs antibiotics. I am a volunteer for a couple of shelters. At those shelters you can turn an animal in, become its foster parent, and then adopt it when it is old enough and neutered. The only cost is the adoption fee when you do adopt which is far less than a vet would charge just for the neutering.
Avatar f tn So after the surgery I put her on antibiotics for a week and that took care of the inflamation and swelling. She has gained back close to a pound since she weaned the kittens and looks almost filled out again. She could still stand to gain another 1/2 pound or so but she is eating quite well. I just finished feeding and weighting the kittens.
Avatar f tn I think that was my daughter because daisy is not my cat it is my friends cat And I took daisy to the vet because my friend was working and she gave her some antibiotics so thx for the advice u have me
637356 tn?1301924822 Anyways me and my mom took them to the vet right after we got them and he put them on antibiotics for an infection. Starts with a C but can't remember what it is called. He said it was very common in cats. They have been taking the medication for two weeks now and one of the kittens still has discharge coming out of her eyes. She sleeps all day and isn't as active as the others. My son has really bonded with this kitten so I don't want to see her get worse.
Avatar f tn Hi, are you absolutely sure she's pregnant? Did a vet confirm it? I'm only asking because I've had cats my whole life and have never seen or heard of a cat being pregnant and in heat at the same time.
