What should I do if my cat has a cold?
For a cat cold, give pet-specific cold and anti-inflammatory medicine (amoxicillin-clavulanate or doxycycline). Never give human cold medicine (risk of poisoning). Keep it warm, offer warm water, and supplement vitamins and protein. If no improvement, there may be another disease — see a vet.
What happens if a dog eats boiled eggs?
Eating a moderate amount of boiled egg is beneficial to a dog's health, because eggs are rich in protein, minerals, and lecithin, and appropriate feeding can supplement nutrition and boost the dog's immunity. However, don't feed too much egg white, because egg white contains avidin, and too much can affect the dog's absorption of vitamin H (biotin). Second, never feed a dog raw eggs, because raw eggs may carry parasites or salmonella and easily harm the dog's health. Finally, although eggs are nutritious, don't overfeed them either, to avoid indigestion in the dog.
Its eye won’t open, pus is flowing, and when I peel it open I can barely see the eyeball; it’s swollen.
Pus and closed eyes can come from eye inflammation, trauma, immune disease, conjunctivitis, keratitis, or herpes virus. A vet eye exam is needed for targeted treatment.
My cat is about 5 jin (2.5 kg). The day before yesterday the vet did a laryngeal exam and said the throat was red and swollen, prescribed amoxicillin-clavulanate; after a day no improvement, and today the eyes are inflamed and it has diarrhea
Symptoms (red/swollen throat, diarrhea, eye inflammation) need a detailed exam to find the cause; consider calicivirus. Blind medication without a diagnosis is ineffective and may harm; treat per results.
How can I know if my dog has rabies?
Judge by symptoms and history: contact with rabid or unvaccinated dogs, bites, then early signs of excitement, light/water fear, drooling, swallowing trouble, stronger aggression, and later confusion, twitching, paralysis. If suspected, isolate to prevent spread.
How can I tell how far along my dog’s pregnancy is?
You can roughly judge by signs: before one month there are few signs; around one month appetite rises and belly and breasts enlarge; after 1.5 months the belly grows markedly and breasts swell, even a little milk. For exact days, get a vet ultrasound to check fetal growth and estimate the due date.
Yesterday afternoon it was bitten on the left shoulder by another hamster — two blood points formed small pits, bled at first, I sprayed povidone-iodine to stop bleeding, and this morning sprayed saline and it’s now a black scab; it often makes puffing sounds and at 11 it had yellow watery stool, so I gave some isatis root
If a hamster is bitten by another, isolate it and treat the wound with saline and a pet wound spray or ointment — shave fur around first to reduce infection and ease medication, then rinse with saline and apply anti-inflammatory spray or ointment. Puffing and yellow stool may be from fright; keep the cage clean with enough bedding and toys for security.
Slept most of the day but active and jumping, ate little, tried to vomit twice but nothing came up
Dog chocolate poisoning causes drooling, vomiting, unsteady walking, irregular heartbeat, and breathing trouble. If a small amount was eaten, watch closely for symptoms; if symptoms appear, go to a vet. Based on your description (lethargy, vomiting), it may have been affected - get checked.
My cat’s first kitten was born dead, and it’s been a while with no second kitten and no signs of labor.
A dead first kitten with no further labor strongly suggests dystocia (difficult labor)—very urgent. See a vet to decide on assisted delivery, medication, or C-section. If delayed, give warm glucose water and gently massage the belly clockwise.
What happens if a dog often eats sausage?
Frequent sausage can raise metabolic burden from salt and additives, causing indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea. It also builds picky habits and risks malnutrition and lower immunity, and preservatives may cause allergies, hair loss, itchy skin, and tear stains.
