A bald patch appeared on the belly about a week ago; I thought it was summer shedding. Then small red spots showed up and the cat keeps licking and biting. After a work trip the rash spread and licking increased.
Red spots on a cat's belly usually point to a skin condition causing redness, itch, scaling, and hair loss. A skin scraping at the vet is needed to confirm the cause. Keep the environment clean and dry and feed a balanced diet.
My Cat Tilts Its Head and Its Ear Looks Like This – Is It a Middle-Ear Infection?
The photo shows an ear infection that may have reached the inner ear and affected the vestibular nerve, causing the head tilt. Treat with ear cleaner, ear-mite medication, and ear-inflammation drugs; clean the ear first, then mite meds plus oral antibiotics.
I’m away and my cat is being boarded at a relative’s, now aggressive and won’t let anyone near – would shipping it via a courier cause problems?
Your cat is in severe stress and should not be shipped now, as it could worsen the reaction and even threaten its life. Keep it in a quiet space with a box, and add catnip or pheromones for security. Do not disturb it often; just provide enough food and water.
A red soft lump suddenly appeared on my hamster’s belly, like a mosquito bite – how should I treat it?
A red swollen soft lump on the belly may be a bug bite, abscess, lipoma, skin cyst, or umbilical hernia; without an exam the exact cause is unclear. See a vet promptly. If a visit is hard, shave the area, disinfect with iodine, apply anti-inflammatory ointment twice daily, and use a homemade collar to stop licking.
My cat’s rear looks swollen and the fur there is brown lately; is that uterine concentration?
The photo likely shows a swollen vulva with discharge, not the anus. Causes include heat, pregnancy, or pyometra. If spirits and temperature are normal with no blood or odor, pyometra is unlikely; stop licking and see a vet if unsure.
Want to know why she has sticky red liquid from the anus, feels like milk; she just had two puppies, and we keep licking that area; can you look at the photo
Red discharge after birth has several causes. In the first 1-2 weeks, the genitals release a little red or brown discharge as normal lochia, at first bright red then fading to pale yellow and clear, usually without foul smell. If past that period red discharge continues, or with fever, listlessness, poor appetite, think infection or retained tissue and see a vet for a gynecological exam.
Cat just received yesterday, about one month old, ~0.5kg. One eye won’t fully open, a white film, pupil unclear
From the photo, the symptoms suggest feline rhinotracheitis. Main signs: sneezing, more eye/nose discharge, tearing, red conjunctiva, poor appetite. Treatment is antiviral, antibacterial, and symptomatic; take it to the vet for interferon and, under guidance, lysine, plus care for its signs.
Why is my dog suddenly coughing and retching? It didn’t poop at night; the hospital X-ray says stomach and gut problems, and the image is unclear
Confirmed coughing usually points to respiratory disease; violent coughing can cause stomach spasm and reflux vomiting, and hard food may injure the esophagus or stomach. The blurry film shows high-density matter in the stomach, possibly undigested bone or food; recall if you fed hard bones causing injury and indigestion, leading to cough and retch. Follow the vet's plan.
My one-year-old vaccinated tabby female cat weighs nine jin, very active; vomited last night, didn’t eat, went to hospital, white cells at 1-something, vet said timely; now hospitalized on fluids; is it serious?
Feline panleukopenia is viral; cure rate depends on the cat's condition, immunity, severity, and treatment. Adult cats have a much higher cure rate than kittens, and vaccination plus good condition raise the odds. With proper early treatment, the cure rate is 70-90%; later treatment about 40%.
What happens if a German Shepherd is never trained?
An untrained German Shepherd can develop a range of problems. Because the breed is naturally wary, a lack of proper socialization and training can lead to over-guarding, fear, or even aggression, along with an inability to follow basic commands in emergencies.
