Cat’s lower body can’t move, very painful, walks hunched, tail can’t move, bites when touched, can’t sit, hard to stand up
Inability to move the lower body with pain may be spine issues, neuritis, or cardiomyopathy. The condition is serious; get X-ray, blood, and CT at a vet promptly.
My cat has patchy hair loss on its tail, was 2-3 spots now many, some bald, painful to touch
Long-standing skin issues with pigmentation are hard to confirm as ringworm; use a Wood's lamp (green fluorescence = fungus), and a skin scrape rules out mixed bacteria. Tail hair loss that's oily may be stud-tail (folliculitis). At home, shave, rinse with saline, apply antibacterial and terbinafine spray, use a collar, and supplement B/vitamin/fish oil; disinfect the environment.
My cat has ear discharge and pain, then vomiting and now blood at the mouth and will not eat – what’s wrong?
The ears suggest ear mites or otitis that need vet treatment, and the vomiting and bleeding likely come from a gut problem. A full veterinary exam is advised.
My cat accidentally jumped into the oil pot and is in severe pain; its claws were burned off.
This is at least a second-degree burn; see a vet to avoid infection and ulcers. If unable, clean with saline and apply gentian violet and burn ointment 2-3 times daily, plus oral antibiotics like cefadroxil or Clavamox.
My cat’s hind leg is turned outward, painful when touched, won’t bear weight, cries. How to treat, and what does it cost?
Likely a fracture—needs prompt vet care. X-ray to assess bone state, then external or internal fixation. External: locate break via X-ray, set without surgery, splint. Internal: surgery. Cost varies by severity; surgery usually a few thousand RMB, depending on location/severity/method.
One nipple is red and swollen, not painful, soft, with black spots around it and a small red bump, no sensation; normal appetite and energy. Neutered male cat.
Black spots, redness, and a red bump around a male cat's nipple are likely mastitis developing from bacterial folliculitis. Although male, the nipple structure exists, and when folliculitis occurs the cat may bite or scratch it, causing inflammation.
One of my cat’s front paws and leg is swollen, painful to touch, with no visible wound; she limps and can’t put that foot down. She’s otherwise alert.
Treat paw swelling according to the cause. Check the paw pads and toes for foreign objects or injuries and remove them; deep wounds need veterinary care. Small wounds or interdigital dermatitis can be disinfected and treated with anti-inflammatory ointment at home.
My cat lost a large patch of fur on its neck, bare skin, but acts normal, eats and drinks, no pain; just noticed it today
Bald, broken, red skin looks like a scrape or burn, or possibly bacterial infection, allergy, or eczema. Clean and disinfect at home or get a scrape test; use a collar to stop licking.
My cat’s tail was broken, only a stub left, and won’t heal; a lump appeared and it cries in pain when moved. What do I do?
A broken, infected cat tail that will not heal needs vet surgical debridement, possibly amputation of dead bone. Home care is painful; a vet is better.
My cat was accidentally sat on; it is not in pain all over but limps and won’t put one paw down. Is it a fracture?
Handling a pressed cat depends on injury severity. Mild bruises are not life-threatening, but limping with possible fractures needs an X-ray.
