My cat went out this afternoon, came back, then suddenly had rapid breathing, dilated pupils, and drooled with blood-streaked saliva; she is 50 days pregnant. Is this food poisoning, should I induce vomiting? Symptoms gone but she is lethargic.
Sudden rapid breathing, drooling, and dilated pupils in a cat strongly suggest poisoning. Poisoning signs include lethargy, poor appetite, breathing difficulty, dilated pupils, temperature change, and blue-purple mucous membranes, later diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration; severe cases damage the liver and can be fatal. At home induce vomiting with soapy water or diluted hydrogen peroxide and go to the vet; early treatment saves lives.
How to help a Langqing dog’s ears stand up?
Langqing dogs usually start erecting ears at about 3 months; if they do not, calcium deficiency is likely - feed calcium-rich foods (shrimp shells, goat milk, soy products, calcium tablets) and get sunlight daily. Once calcium is sufficient ears stand. If still down, use breath-right strips and breathable tape, not too tight.
How to stop a dog from defecating everywhere?
Prepare a dog toilet at home and rub urine on it or spray attractant as a lure. Watch for pre-potty signs (sniffing, circling, anxious look), usually about 30 minutes after meals, and take it there. After it goes, reward a snack so it learns the spot.
How to make a dog’s ears stand up?
If the dog is naturally an erect-eared breed, ears rise on their own at 3-4 months; clean ears regularly as ear infections or mites can delay this. Calcium deficiency also affects it - have the vet check and supplement calcium. Non-erect breeds need surgical cropping with careful wound care.
How to remove cat urine smell from clothes?
Cat urine smell on clothes can be removed by washing; after soaking with detergent and scent beads and repeated rinsing, little odor remains. If any smell lingers, air-dry in a ventilated place for a few days, or spray pet odor eliminator several times and then dry.
My two-month-old dog passes white long worms in stool and scoots; redid dewormer 3 days ago but still sees live worms. Continue?
Internal parasites need oral dewormer; live worms a week later mean heavy load or working drug; redo in a week. Use praziquantel, Drontal, or internal pet love per weight. Deworm monthly under 1 yr, every 2-3 mo after. Add probiotics; avoid raw food.
What happens if a cat eats dried squid?
A little dried squid is fine, rich in protein and minerals. But it is salty; large amounts cause salt poisoning with tremors, seizures, foaming. Seek vet; some cats are allergic, causing vomiting/diarrhea.
How can I teach a budgerigar to talk?
Place the budgie where it hears you often so it mimics you; build trust by feeding and interacting, so it works harder to 'talk' with you. If you have more than one bird, separate them, or they'll prefer each other. Start with simple words (hello, eat, bye), praise each success, then build to short phrases.
What happens if a dog eats two human deworming pills?
Human dewormers can cause worm passing, vomiting, poor appetite, lethargy, even poisoning. They target only roundworms and tapeworms, so use pet-specific dewormers on schedule.
