Dog fever 3 days, rapid breathing, diarrhea, then vomiting
Three days of fever with diarrhea/vomiting suggests gastroenteritis or distemper. Test if unvaccinated; treat with antibiotics and fever care.
What medicine treats a dog’s urinary tract infection?
Dog UTIs need antibiotics like amoxicillin, but stones must be ruled out with imaging. Surgery may be required before antibiotics.
My dog over 4 months old has worse cough and dry-retching at night and after exercise or a bath, for over a month; meds and 4 days of injections did not help, but spirits and appetite are good.
Cough and dry-retching may be from respiratory infection or esophageal foreign-body obstruction. Your case is more likely a foreign body; see a vet. Respiratory infection responds to amoxicillin-clavulanate and anti-cough herbs; an esophageal foreign body must be removed.
My cat has had a cold for half a month.
Do not give 999 cold medicine; it contains acetaminophen and caffeine that poison cats, even fatal in overdose. Use pet cold medicine, such as amoxicillin-clavulanate, Pu'ante Shuanghuanglian, or doxycycline. If no improvement, check for rhinotracheitis, mycoplasma, calicivirus, or pneumonia.
My kitten switched food abruptly with no transition, ate a lot, then had diarrhea; I bathed it, and next day it was lethargic, dry-nosed, and refusing food, now vomiting but stools normal.
Food changes must be gradual; a sudden large amount causes gut upset with diarrhea and vomiting. This is likely stress from the switch plus the bath. Stop the new food, return to soaked old food, add probiotics. If vomiting continues, fast 6 to 8 hours with glucose electrolyte water, then pet anti-vomit medicine and antibiotics; if it stops, slowly return to soaked food; if it continues, see a vet.
My cat is vomiting yellow fluid, listless, and has no appetite.
Yellow vomit has many causes, including gastritis, blockage, indigestion, pancreatitis, nephritis, liver or gallbladder disease, and poisoning. Get an abdominal ultrasound, blood, and fecal tests. If a vet is inconvenient, fast 6 to 8 hours; if vomiting stops, give amoxicillin-clavulanate and cimetidine plus probiotics. Give glucose electrolyte water during fasting to prevent dehydration.
My dog has bloody stool and is lethargic (likely parvo)
Parvo is a highly fatal viral disease; puppy death can reach 90%. Home treatment is not advised; if impossible, use interferon and parvo antibody, hemostatics, gut and anti-vomit meds, and IV fluids if anorexic.
My cat has a red bump by its tooth; is it gingivitis?
A red bump by the tooth is likely gingivitis or periodontitis from poor oral care; use an antibacterial mouth spray and pet antibiotics if worse. Brush regularly and limit wet food; see a vet if needed.
My turtle has white-eye disease and rubs off the erythromycin
Treat white-eye with medicated baths plus eye drops. Bathe in amoxicillin-clavulanate water (50-100 mg/L) 30+ min, then levofloxacin drops twice daily for a week; adjust water and raise temperature if severe, with antibiotic injection.
A stray kitten was abused and now is hoarse and twitches like coughing
The twitching with a hoarse voice is likely a cough from respiratory infection, heart disease, allergy, asthma, or heartworm, possibly after stress lowered immunity. Give a warm place and amoxicillin-clavulanate plus guogensu; see a vet if worse.
