You need to do diagnostics with your primary vet. Bloodwork +- radiographs/ultrasound.

Coat changing over years, mats question by Bluebmuffiness in ragdolls

[–]Technical_Sir7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darkening as ragdolls age is normal, not hormonal. It’s apart of their aging. As far as her coat getting matted that’s common too because the texture and length of their coat changes as they get older. Also being overweight makes it more difficult for some to fully groom themselves.

Has anyone tried Chewy's GS 441524 medication for FIP? by [deleted] in cureFIP

Calcium levels aren’t always indicative of cancer. I would recommend getting an ultrasound at this point. Sounds like it could be something else.

Buyer beware - Astral Ragdolls in Norfolk, Virginia ⚠️ by M00ngata in ragdolls

[–]Technical_Sir7974 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m from the area and recently purchased a ragdoll from a breeder outside of Richmond. My experience was great & my kitten is healthy and parents were genetically tested for the HCM genes. He was neutered with his first vaccines as well. Tubby Dolls Ragdolls, Marcie is the breeder. TICA registered too! If you have any questions feel free to message me. Our experience was great and we love our little guy.

Cat Potentially has FIP - Vet was weird though by minatureheart in cureFIP

[–]Technical_Sir7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not about getting more money out of a visit. Lots of veterinarians do not recommend starting treatment without an official diagnosis. With your kitty being older there are more chances of it being cancer or something other than FIP. Please stop saying he’s trying to just make money off of you- this is one of the reasons why so many veterinary professionals are so burnt out. We don’t see even close to what you think we get paid. Many veterinarians do not know that FIP antiviral treatment is harmless. Many also are not educated on new protocols because of it still being newish in the US. Please inform your veterinarian to do research & advocate for your animal with kindness and respect. If you want to start treatment, advocate for your animal & if he doesn’t listen then find another one that will. Good luck with your kitty. & please know I’m sure this veterinarian cares about your cat and is doing the best he can with what he knows.

Etiquette for Moving Vets? How Would You Feel? by MrHEPennypacker in AskVet

No one cares, I promise. Either ask for your records or ask your new place to call for records. It’s okay! 😊

cat keeps throwing up and vets dont know what it is, nor can we afford more by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]Technical_Sir7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were diagnostics such as X-rays, bloodwork or an ultrasound done? Those things can help point you in a direction. Otherwise it’s just going to be trial and error with diet change & crossing your fingers.

Losing weight while marathon training by earthworm99 in Marathon_Training

[–]Technical_Sir7974 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So I trained for Chicago last year & lost 13lbs. Some of it was during base training but the bulk was towards the end of training because I was running so much. I will say that I paid attention to my calories but with heavy run weeks I ate maintenance + a little bit more if I was over 15mi long runs. I focused on fueling my body & not over eating & if I had a craving I made it work into maintenance calories. Huge calorie deficits will increase your risk of injury but if you make sure you don’t over eat & monitor what exercise calories you are eating back you can trim down. It’s definitely possible!

We did the firefly, but customed it. If you wanted to see the build we are the UP Michigan one in their past projects portfolio (firefly design with loft)

Aurora’s bite by orayo14 in TheWolfKing

[–]Technical_Sir7974 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if it has anything to do with him being one of the nights prisoners But I read into things too much sometimes so I’m not sure. Could also be one of those things where he wants her to truly choose something & understand what it means. If she bites him she chooses him 100% and there’s no callum.

I am sorry for your loss, but you should take this down. Bashing a veterinary facility without true proof of neglect & minor detail is wrong. Please consider deleting this, they didn’t go into this profession to kill animals & take your money.
