My Dog Makes a “Ka-Ka” Gagging Sound and Seems to Have Phlegm in Its Throat
The ka-ka gagging is a cough. With normal appetite it is usually a respiratory infection such as bronchitis or asthma, but heartworm or cardiopulmonary disease can also cause coughing.
Yesterday I found a cat outside and brought it home; it looks like a pet cat that got out, but it breathes poorly, nose blocked, sneezes like a cold, and has a scabbed injury on the nose. Photos 1–2 are from that night, photo 3 is this morning.
Breathing trouble, blocked nose, sneezing suggest respiratory infection or cat flu. Try doxycycline or amoxicillin-clavulanate and watch; if no clear relief, see a vet. A stray easily catches viruses and needs proper vet care.
Bitten by a Border Collie, no wound but subcutaneous emphysema on back and belly
Subcutaneous emphysema from a dog fight can be treated by cold compress for small swellings, then iodine and oral amoxicillin-clavulanate. Watch closely and see a vet if it grows.
Dog sneezes and retches
Sneezing and retching may be a cold; keep the dog warm and give anti-inflammatories plus cough medicine. If unvaccinated, distemper or kennel cough is possible.
Vomited kibble at first, reduced; since yesterday no food or water; today only water then vomited white foamy fluid
Vomiting with no eating and lethargy may be bacterial gastroenteritis, parasites, pancreatitis, or panleukopenia. Abdominal imaging and blood tests at a vet are recommended.
Red lump where a fibroma was squeezed out weeks ago; right neck swollen and foul-smelling
A red lump on a turtle's neck may be a local abscess from bacterial infection after improper fibroma removal, or malignant change into a fibrosarcoma. Sterile surgery at a vet is advised.
What medicine for a Golden Retriever’s sudden frequent urination?
Frequent urination has many causes, so a vet exam is needed; infections use antibiotics like amoxicillin-clavulanate, and cystitis may need levofloxacin or norfloxacin.
My one-month-old kitten had normal stool, then soft stool, and now diarrhea with blood – what should I do?
Bloody diarrhea in a kitten may be hemorrhagic enteritis or a virus such as panleukopenia. Have a vet rule out distemper, then use appropriate medication and a hypoallergenic diet.
My turtle is sometimes agitated, sometimes still, with weak limbs, open mouth, and won’t eat turtle food—what’s wrong?
Weak limbs, open mouth, and no food likely mean pneumonia, with mouth-breathing, white fluff in water, lethargy. Often from a chill and big temperature swings. Treat with amoxicillin medicated bath at about 28°C.
My turtle’s poop was white, now yellow over the last few days; energy is okay but it barely eats, kept 6 days
Normal turtle stool is brown or black. White or yellow unformed stool likely means a digestive problem like enteritis. Mild cases: raise water temperature and fast 5-7 days to self-heal. Severe: raise temperature and medicated bath with amoxicillin or oxytetracycline.
