It has been plucking constantly, almost all its feathers are gone, looks like it has worms – any reliable method? I don’t dare buy random medicine online
Feather plucking has many causes: anxiety, boredom, virus/mold/parasite infection, nutrient gaps. For example, giardia infection can cause plucking - deworm promptly, give some antibiotics, bathe often, ventilate, improve life quality. To stop plucking, put a collar on; disinfect bleeding wounds with iodine.
Cat developed skin disease while parents were caring for it; what is going on and what medicine helps?
There are many types of cat skin disease with different treatments, and without symptoms a specific plan cannot be given. A vet visit is recommended to identify the cause.
My kitten has this on its belly – is it ringworm, and how do I treat it?
The cat most likely has ringworm; confirm with a Wood's lamp (about 70 percent accurate) or a skin scrape. Clip the fur and use antifungal medicine.
I found a stray cat with possible hair loss and ringworm – can you check?
Ringworm causes round hairless patches with scaling, and the cat will scratch intensely. Confirm with a Wood's lamp or vet exam, then clip and treat with antifungal medicine.
My cat had unconscious stool leakage on the 21st, thought mild prolapse, but on the 22nd a vet found coccidia and gave medicine; the anus keeps leaking watery stool—normal?
Leakage can be mild colitis or loosened anal sphincter from diarrhea; coccidia causes frequent watery/bloody/mucus stools. Treat with sulfa drugs and amprolium for 1-2 weeks plus symptomatic care; if dehydrated, give fluids to correct balance.
My cat has dandruff and pus on its tail
From the photo, the cat has ringworm — the lesion shows green fluorescence under a Wood's lamp, confirming it. Shave the area to clean scales and apply medicine; clean with hydrogen peroxide then apply antifungal, keeping a head cone on. If other body parts are infected, consider medicated baths.
My kitten has large-scale hair loss; a small clinic said ringworm and gave cream, but now it won’t eat, lies in the bathroom, moves slowly, is listless with dull eyes—is it from licking the medicine?
Ringworm treatment uses antifungals (terbinafine, compound ketoconazole, itraconazole) that irritate gut and liver/kidneys; licking causes lethargy, vomiting, appetite loss. See a vet to reduce organ damage; use an E-collar during treatment.
What do you think of Ramical deworming spray?
Its main ingredient is fipronil, which works within 30 minutes to kill fleas, ticks, and lice on dogs and cats. The formula is gentle—the drug stays in the sebaceous glands and doesn't enter the blood—so puppies and kittens can use it. But put an E-collar on to stop licking and poisoning.
The day before yesterday it had diarrhea with blood at the end; I gave Revolution (topical dewormer), probiotics, and smectite powder. Yesterday the stool was formed, but early this morning it had diarrhea again
Diarrhea with blood in dogs can have various causes, including indigestion, malabsorption, digestive tract injury, parasite infection, enteritis, and viral infection. Based on your description, the dog still had diarrhea after deworming and medication, which suggests the cause may not be parasites — the medicine didn't match the problem. Take the dog to a vet for relevant tests and apply targeted treatment based on the results.
My dog has watery diarrhea and wants to sleep after taking deworming medicine.
Loose stools and drowsiness after deworming are normal, since the medication irritates the gut as it attacks parasites. Give pet probiotics and watch for one to two days, and if diarrhea is severe, seek IV fluids at a vet.
