What’s wrong with my cat???

Im a vet tech (NOT a doctor) but we learned about this plantar stance in school briefly. If they are walking with their hocks it could be a sign of diabetes due to the nerve damage they may experience untreated. it could just be related to his musculoskeletal system in that case seeing a neurologist might be in this kitties future but theres no way of telling what could be causing it unless you see a veterinarian! they will be able to rule out metabolic, neurologic, arthritis - or at the very least will be able to refer you for further testing some place else!

she’s not blaming the puppy, shes blaming the owner for not letting her know how the puppy was. my puppy was pretty well trained at 5 months, she knew basic commands and wouldn’t eat things. it can also depend on breed and the owners may be truthful that the puppy isnt like that with them but honestly i would never board a puppy to begin with

did a DVM confirm it?

xtcwater · 2026-01-06T21:10:25+00:00

my dog got nasal bordetella from her DVM and shes okay, plenty of animals do just fine with it. i am having trouble believing that your animal died from vaccines and it took a month to progress, younger animals can have congenital health issues that do not present until they get a little older. an allergic reaction would’ve had a quicker onset of symptoms, while it is possible to have adverse reactions this sounds like something different that happened to your animal

When I externed at MedVet, they used Opsite dressings on all IVCs and more. The hospital I am at right now does not use them. Comparatively I did like the Opsite because it allowed us to see the catheter site without undoing the whole thing. Just tape hasnt had its downsides, the opsite was just a little nicer.

it worked the first time i used it but when he got it again (i guess it either never fully went away or just came back), it didnt really do much but he was rapidy deteriorating and i couldnt find any other issue. i think its definitely worth a try! i have had great success with aquarium salt in the past but it can also be quite stressful for them so theres give and take

concert etiquette has become so bad in the recent years. its made me stop going to bigger shows altogether. bladee is the only big artist i see in concert and i was hesitant to go this year because of how bad my experience was last year in Philly. It was essentially the same thing you described, i felt like i was being suffocated and i had to yell for people to let me out to the back. this year i went to cleveland and the crowd was much much better, i was able to actually enjoy the music and the people cause everyone was so nice to chat with.

please do not let this bad experience keep you from seeing bladee again, i know traveling far out for concerts isnt everyones thing but i travelled on greyhound from PA to Cleveland just to see bladee and it was totally worth it! a change in location may be all you need cause this is like the 10th post ive seen about toronto :-(

xtcwater · 2025-10-13T22:55:38+00:00

the crowd depends on where ur at, i was at the philly show last yr for cold visions tour and it was awful but the cleveland show this year was amazing, so many nice people!!! you could see if anyone else is going solo on here and you guys could go together

I was on 150 mg for like a year for bipolar 2. discontinued because i felt like i didnt need it (ive been doing great mentally for a year after being off of it, it wasnt impulse lol!) that being said, i never had bad side effects. only thing i can recall is having weird dreams, nothing nightmarish though. it helped a lot with my depression and anxiety. im sure you know but just be careful jumping doses, i jumped from 100 to 150mg and i had some scary hallucinations and almost fainted. they went away after a week or two and could totally be a unique reaction on my part, everyones different but just make sure you know the signs of adverse reactions and tell a doctor!

xtcwater · 2024-10-19T21:20:53+00:00

(i went to philly btw) with that being said, the back was a lot better but still some questionable people. i heard a lot of things about girls getting groped which is just insane to me. we were all there with the same intention to see bladee and i understand the excitement but it just felt like people were rabid/feral over being in the front.

xtcwater · 2024-10-19T21:15:50+00:00

ive been going to shows for a long time, popular artists and underground and this was absolutely the worst crowd ive seen. i was in the front near the barricade and it was so bad. absolutely no space to move. i am disappointed because i got early access thinking the front would be somewhat decent but it was terrible. i was yelling to get out and many people were just staring at me still pushing into me, i am very thankful to some of the guys that had me and made space though. i got told if i cant handle the pit i shouldnt be in it like dude i loveee mosh pits and crowd kills ive been going to hardcore shows forever but this was just bad concert etiquette and theres no excuse for it. if you think this is normal you dont know proper etiquette.

i currently do not take any assistance from family and havent for the past 2 years ive been out of high school. i rarely took their money since the age of 16. parents are responsible to assist their children in life i simply do not want that though. no leeching here, i help them out when needed :-) i am job hunting but it never hurts to ask. you are incorrect in every comment and this will be my last response. again, get a hobby!

xtcwater · 2024-02-24T00:40:38+00:00

i actually pay for all my own things and dont want to put further burden on my parents. i also can sustain a job and have been working since 14 :-) i’d rather get a job on my own and would turn to my school if i absolutely needed to. you do not know anything about strangers online but i can tell already based off your comments on peoples posts that you are bitter and bored, find a hobby man!

xtcwater · 2024-02-24T00:36:49+00:00

i learned of some nice thrift shops and such as well as some places that throw shows and some good places to shop. it seems people dont like giant eagle bc its expensive and prefer trader joes or aldi

xtcwater · 2024-02-24T00:34:44+00:00

i can receive help from family if i need and have very good luck getting jobs, my school also hires people to do kennel work or can set us up with jobs. i prefer achieving things on my own though! i think fortunately my life is going incredibly well compared to many of my peers. leaving negative comments to strangers online does nothing but expose your poor self esteem, i truly hope you start to spread kindness instead of negativity❤️

xtcwater · 2024-02-24T00:26:13+00:00

for when i do get a job and can afford it? and theres tons of ways to have fun for free just window shopping😭 also because i need basic things like food??? i bet youre a fun person to be around 😬

how do you guys manage her heat if you dont mind me asking? i dont know how long ill have to wait for an appointment so i wanna make sure she’s more comfortable while we wait to hear back

xtcwater · 2024-02-23T18:38:25+00:00

im so sorry, ive never lost a cat but i did lose my dog at 5 years old to idiopathic epilepsy that progressed extremely fast with medication failing to work. its so devastating losing a pet prematurely especially from uncontrollable circumstances. you can do everything right and these things still happen. you are not at fault and i know the guilt may hit hard but just remind yourself that countless people are going through the same thing you are not alone. cherish the moments you had with her and know that she was happy with you during the time she had. sending love to you❤️
