Importance of Daily Pet Care and Essential Tools
Choosing to keep a pet means learning daily care to help prevent disease and keep it healthy. Here is why routine pet care matters and the tools you need.
I bathed the cat at home a while ago, then noticed yellow nasal discharge with bad breath, but it eats, drinks, runs, and jumps normally. Is this a cold or rhinotracheitis?
From the symptoms it's likely just a chill and cold. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine, keep it warm, and supplement vitamins, protein, and lysine. If fever or eye redness appears, consider rhinotracheitis or calicivirus and see a vet.
Yellow transparent fluid with a foul odor flowing from the cat’s anus
Yellow transparent fluid with a foul smell from the anus is usually anal gland inflammation. Wipe it, check for redness or swelling; extreme stress can also cause this. If redness or swelling appears, clean and use pet antibiotic ointment.
Should it get an anti-inflammatory injection?
From the photo, the ultrasound site is unclear, so consult the attending vet. If a uterine blood clot is found, consider endometritis or pyometra; mild cases use medicine, severe need surgery. Follow the vet's advice.
I bathed the dog a few days ago; after that its hind legs were unsteady, and it’s been like this for days. Today it keeps falling and cries out.
Unsteady walking and falling usually aren't from bathing. In puppies it's often nutritional bone-development issues; in seniors it may be arthritis or neurological problems. Hypoglycemia also causes this. See a vet.
Puppy raised at home about 5 days, was lively, but today suddenly weak and not eating; at 6:30 a.m. vomited thick white watery fluid, very fishy, not foul. Noon no vomit. Afternoon vomited yellow thick undigested food. Gave a little probiotic. At night vomited fishy, foul-smelling white thick liquid.
Vomiting has many causes (indigestion, foreign objects, gastritis, ulcers, infections). Fast half a day if only vomiting, then feed bland food and probiotics; see a vet if it continues.
Spirits are fine, just watery stool. What medicine is good?
Watery stool may be food allergy, parasites, or acute enteritis. If a visit isn't possible, try pet anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrhea medicine plus probiotics; stop new foods and keep deworming.
Why does my dog’s belly twitch repeatedly?
Repeated belly twitching can be from fright, internal parasites, pregnancy, or respiratory disease. Comfort a frightened dog; respiratory disease brings other signs like sneezing and cough, needing a vet.
Cat has breathed poorly and coughed with runny nose since coming home; improved shortly after. A few days ago weather changed severely, then it ran a fever (39.8 C rectally). Four days ago it stopped eating and drinking, hid, no stool or urine, and at night vomited pale-yellow watery fluid with a faint fishy smell. Cephalosporin prescribed.
The report alone can't confirm a diagnosis; further PCR for respiratory/coronavirus, ultrasound, X-ray, and bloodwork are advised. With yellow vomit, fever, and breathing trouble, rule out FIP first; coughing suggests upper-respiratory infection.
