Cat’s belly is very bloated; what to do?
Bloating may be indigestion, constipation, parasites, or FIP. For food buildup, fast and give probiotics; for no stool, adjust diet, massage, ease constipation. With other symptoms, see a vet.
My cat was stressed after its mother hit it, hides, can’t stand, walks unsteady, eats little but normal elimination; how to treat, cost
Stress usually doesn't directly cause inability to stand unless severe, causing arrhythmia, clots, heart failure. Stress also lowers immunity, inviting FIP or gastroenteritis causing weakness. Mother may have hit a nerve (rare). Long fasting may cause low blood sugar; give nutrition and observe. If no improvement or new symptoms, see a vet for heart/nerve issues.
My cat has a poor appetite and keeps breathing with its abdomen
Diagnosing FIP needs blood tests, antibody checks, and analysis of abdominal effusion via Rivalta and PCR. If confirmed, treat under veterinary guidance and disinfect the home.
My Cat’s Pre-Neuter Check Showed Low Globulin; Does It Need the 441 Injection, and Can Surgery Still Proceed?
The results argue against neutering now, with a low albumin-globulin ratio, inflammation, gut fluid, and enlarged lymph nodes suggesting some FIP risk. Whether to use GS-441524 depends on symptoms and further coronavirus PCR and Rivalta tests; if no fever, big belly, or appetite loss, follow the vet's probiotics and lactoferrin and recheck in a week.
After coming to the new home, the cat stays in a ‘hen-squat,’ drools, is lethargic, with a high fever around 41°C, and only eats canned food, not kibble

Why is my cat’s appetite down and listless?
Low appetite and lethargy are early signs of many diseases, including gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, FIP, distemper, or coronavirus. Try probiotics; if prolonged with little food, see a vet.

My kitten has a hard, bloated belly and rapid coarse breathing, but eats, drinks, and is energetic
A hard, distended belly may be constipation—check recent bowel movements; hard or absent stools suggest constipation. Rapid breathing alongside bloating could hint at FIP or a tumor, but those usually also affect spirit and appetite. If it persists, see a vet.

My cat keeps being listless, vomiting and having diarrhea, and hides in corners by itself.
Listlessness with vomiting, diarrhea, and hiding may reflect gastroenteritis, infectious disease, or parasites. Spoiled food or swallowed objects can trigger it, as can a lack of deworming. Persistent signs warrant prompt veterinary diagnosis.
