If Your Cat Does This, IMMEDIATELY Call The Vet (16 Signs Your Cat Needs Urgent Help)

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

In this video, we will look at the most potentially serious signs that a cat needs help and must be rushed to the vet immediately.
#16. Dragging hind legs
If your cat has always walked normally, but suddenly starts dragging their back legs, it could be a sign of a serious problem.
Cats can sometimes develop blood clots in their bodies. If the clot travels down to the back legs, it can get stuck there and block the blood supply to the hind legs. This can cause the cat to lose control over their back legs.
This condition is very painful, usually causing the cats to cry excessively. Owners typically notice heavy breathing along with the inability to move the rear limbs properly. It may look as if the cat suddenly has a broken back. You may also see that the paw pads are pale in color and cold to the touch.
More often than not, this type of clot happens in both of the back legs, but it can also happen in just one of the legs, the front legs, or even other parts of the body. This problem is more common in cats with heart disease.
It’s important for every cat owner to know the signs of this condition. If it happens to your cat, a vet visit is urgently required.
#15. Trying to use the bathroom but nothing comes out
A cat who tries to go potty but isn’t producing anything may have a urinary tract blockage.
They might sit in the litterbox straining but still not be able to urinate. This is especially a concern if the cat seems to be in pain while trying to do their business. This is a tell-tale sign of a serious blockage, and it could be life-threatening if it’s left untreated.
Urinary tract blockages are extremely common among neutered male cats. Therefore, it's critical for cat parents to know the signs of the condition. If this happens to your pet, a vet visit is urgently required.
#14. Too many hairballs
When cats groom themselves, tiny hook-like structures on their tongue catch loose and dead hair, which is then swallowed. The majority of this hair passes through their digestive tract with no problems. But some hair stays in the stomach and forms a hairball. Oftentimes, your cat will vomit the hairball to get rid of it.
While vomiting an occasional hairball isn't cause for alarm, if your cat is constantly throwing up hairballs, it is a sign that they have a problem with their digestive system, and a vet visit is necessary.
And keep in mind that to help avoid the formation of the hairballs, you can brush your cat once a day and add more fiber to their diet.
#13. Coughing
Identifying a cat’s cough can be confusing. At first, it is hard to understand what is happening because the cat looks like she is trying to throw up but isn’t able to do so. This is in fact a cat who is coughing.
Coughing can be caused by allergies, hairballs, and asthma to name a few of the more minor inflictions. It can, however, also be caused by more serious conditions like heart disease, heartworms, respiratory infections, and other serious problems.
It may be normal for some cats to cough occasionally. But if the cough persists or recurs consistently, a vet visit is necessary.
#12. Change in pupil size

    My Cat passed away today. He’s my best friend and I’m so sad. He’s been with me forever when I was a baby he was a kitten. He died at 13 and I’m 13, he’s always been there for all my life. I have a disease that caused me to miss 3 years worth of school and he’s always been on my lap why I was home. He always came and cuddled when I was crying, it’s like he knew when I was sad. Last night was rough knowing the next day he would die. I kissed him and told him I promise I’d seem him again someday and cried. His sister who has been there all his life has been looking around the house looking for him and meowing and I just keep telling her he’s not there and I shows her a picture of him and she rubbed up on the phone.

They gave only a $50 refund on the total cost of around $700. Finally, my wife was convinced to find another Vet. This was the same vet that had her medicating a hamster with a tumor that eventually died. She spent almost $500 dollars trying to keep him alive.

    The first one, cat dragging hind legs -- we had this exact thing happen to a cat of ours. She just started yowling, I went to find her dragging her hind legs, still yowling, no outward signs of injury. Took her to the vet, she was diagnosed with a blood clot blocking the supply to her hind legs. Vet gave her some medication (don't remember what it was) and sent us home with saline IVs. I had to give her an IV every few days to get enough fluids into her to help break up the clot -- which it did. Then it happened again -- wash, rinse, repeat. Took longer the second time to break up the clot, Then it happened again -- this time the vet told us we were basically fighting a losing battle, that eventually she would "throw" more and more clots, which each would take longer to break up than the previous one. After the 4th time, when she was in constant pain for almost a week, we made the very difficult decision to let her rest. Funny thing was, she was so good every time I gave her the IV, she didn't struggle at all, and just lay in my lap the whole time. Normally she wouldn't sit in my lap for 2 seconds! Love you Skitty!

You have yo have some kind of insurance plan. At the vet I was referred to, you now have to pay a $200.00 deposit just yo get your pet looked at. I am sorry I havent been able to go to a vet in years because of how expensive it is and it has gotten, especially having 5 cats.

    Nas Ally .... Thats awful. I am so sorry for your sweet baby. I lnow how you feel. One of my cats needed surgery which i couldnt afford but i had no choice because I couldnt let him suffer. At that time, though, I was able to make monthly payments. His surgery came to $2000.00, not nearly as much as yours. We love our pets but lots, or I would say, most of us can't afford their medical care, especially at the time it is needed, which makes it awful for our pets who are the ones to suffer. The high cost of medical care for our animals and humans has gotten outrageous. Higher than what they need to be and its the animals that suffers and the owners who most times have no choice but to watch them slowly deteriorate.. I pray it works out for your sweetie.

    Last week I literally had a vet tell me I needed to euthanize my seventeen-year-old cat. She was dragging her hind leg. Only after they tried hitting me with $1,000 hospitalization bill, so they could run a whole bunch of different tests on her. Took her home instead. Next day Cat is fine, walking jumping eating etc. No dragging of hind legs. .. and to think last week could have been my cat's last day with me. And now she's just as happy as can be... old, but still fighting to live. Wish there were millions of you.

    Both were not diagnosed until it was too late. In the cat with diabetes, I was told that it had a raised blood sugar but that this was common, in cats, as they get stressed going to the Vet! My cat was quite happy going to the Vet! After taking it in every day , for a week, it had developed jaundice. I was, then, told, by a more senior Vet, that my cat had liver damage. He added that cats are difficult to treat for diabetes, anyway! The cat wth colon cancer was taken to the vet several times, over 7 mths. I was told that it wasn't abnormal for my (shorthaired) cat to vomit a few times every week! Then, another Vet did blood tests and told me that it had pancreatitis. After no response to treatment, my cat lost more and more weight. The next Vet said that my cat, probably, had cancer, causing a blockage in the colon. My cat was not able to keep down food, or medication. It got to the stage where he was very weak and dehydrated/malnourished. When I took him to the Vet, it was a different one on duty. He refused to euthanize my cat and said that he wanted to put him on a drip, overnight. I wasn't happy but left him at the Vet practice. He was left from 8pm to 8am, on the drip. No Ringers solution was given. When the Vet had returned in the morning, my cat was suffering from a fluid overload! I was not allowed to attend until 5pm, as the Vet was 'too busy' to see me!! When my partner and I saw my cat, he could barely lift his head, or open his eyes. He just gave a weak mew. I told the Vet that I wanted him to put my cat out of it's misery, which he, finally, did.

    At the same time, there are exceptions. A really stressed cat will sometimes pant through their mouth & be fine. (Like their first car ride, moving to a new home, etc.) As long as they don't repeat that behavior, they don't suffer from serious disease. IMO, the most important thing is to be aware of repeated behavior changes. Observation is key to keeping any pet healthy.

    I had a cat a few years ago who could not take care of himself. His sh*t got stuck in his hair, and he didnt do anything about it. We tried grooming, bathing and pretty much anything to help him. The only thing we didn't do, was to call a vet. My parents think it is too expensive, although I was certain that we should visit one anyways. I was too young back then to have a good enough influence on my parents, so unfortunately they decided to put him down. I did back then, and I do now, think it is a great shame. I wish I had more knowledge back then.

    My beautiful black, silky, Cleopatra had to be put down after a clot blocked blood flow to both rear legs. I heard her give a loud meow around 4am. Called her to come to bed. Woke up about half later to realize she wasn't in bed. Finally found her hiding quietly behind the couch. I put her in my lap thinking she had an upset stomach or something. After a few minutes I realized her rear legs were splayed out in an odd way. She screamed in pain when I moved. By the time we got to the vet her legs were completely paralyzed and she was in severe pain.❤😥 It would have taken meds to dissolve the clot, which meant multiple visits a week to a specialist to monitor blood. Then physical therapy to help build some strength in the rear legs. Even with all that, odds were she would only live another 4-6 months. I strongly feel the best way to honor a cat is to rescue another kitty as soon as you are emotionally ready to do so. For some reason, I started searching shelters for a new pal, in just few weeks. An orange tabby claimed me. There was another black panther at the same shelter named Twizzler. He was just a kitten. A real firecracker! But I also believe older cats are greatly overlooked. My tabby, Purrl was 2 1/2 years old. Little did I know that 3 weeks later the country would shut down. Purrl got me thru the pandemic and showed me how much she missed me when I was in the hospital for 5 weeks. She didn't leave my side or stop rubbing up against me for 3 days. After that it was back to normal. Gotta love those kitties! (Sorry this is so long.)

One thing that you can do (if it really bothers you) is put the minimum necessary requirement in the initial comment then "replying to yourself" and adding every little detail there. (Or break it up into smaller chunks like I did here.) Personally I always have to get an additional pet long BEFORE my (last) current one dies. They mean too much to me. I cannot function without them and positively know that I'll be too upset and "lose it" if/while trying to replace them afterwards. But animals (&kids) are my life, I'm just weird that way🤷‍♀️

    My cat also had the same problem, blood clot paralysed both his rear legs. And it unfortunately happened at night. My family and I spent hours on the phone begging any vet we could get on the phone to let us bring him for urgent care. All of them refused saying they don't work after 4pm. I begged and cried on the phone but each and every one of them were dismissive or downright rude saying that they don't have just that to do in their lives. I get that vets have a life too but it was a serious emergency. None of them agreed to see him, not even the one found at a 30 seconds walk from my home. I could only give him some of his painkillers that we got from a vet once and wait all night by his side. Managed to get him to a vet eventually at 9am and they said that it was too late, that we waited too long and that his legs were already dying. And that if we had brought him in right away, he would have had a chance of survival. We had to euthanise him to stop the pain in the end. It was heart wrenching and traumatising. Now a year later my husband rescued a small kitten and I'm terrified of something similar happening.

    I thank you for this very informative video. Yes, watching a cat’s behavior is a very wise thing to do. I had adopted 3 cats from friends because they moving and were unable to take them with them. I quickly noticed that two were older but one also had a really soft stomach, another was thin, and the third seemed younger, but okay. Recently, the first 2-cats mentioned passed away both were older cats. The vet told me the first one was between 12 to 20 yrs old, and she died from kidney failure. The 2nd one, who had a soft stomach, never came out of her hiding place and died hiding under a couch where I couldn’t find her until much later on, she only showed herself once, and never afterwards. Because of the way I found her, she definitely died from a heart attack or cancer. The 3rd cat is alive and sleeps with me whenever I do, she likes to make sure I’m safe and also follows me around the house, but there may be another reason, all three cats were together for a long time, and with missing the other two, I’ve become her companion now. Besides the three I adopted, I also had two others older cats before and which now keeps Annie company as well, but since they are older, it is only a matter of time before they also will leave this world. ❤🙏🏼

    Number 16 (the first one) happened to my cat. It was horrible. It's called a "saddle thrombosis". I rushed her to our university veterinary emergency dept. They said there was nothing to help it. I had to have her euthanized right then. This was a cat who fought like a tiger to stay out of the cat carrier. When I heard her scream and she started dragging herself, I knew she had to go to the vet. I was scared to pick her up, because I thought she'd broken her back and it would make it worse to pick her up. So I watched as she dragged herself across the living room and voluntarily got into an open cat carrier. She wanted me to get help. Even though the vet school was only 5 minutes away, it was just hopeless. I hope this never happens to you.

    For anyone worrying about the first one, it’s sorta half true. Sometimes cats stick out their back legs as a greeting. Some are too lazy to actually lift up their legs all the way, so they just kinda do that. If your cat does that then goes back to walking normally, your ok. If the cat does wut the video said, you should get a vet or smthn. Hope this helped! ( if anyone is offended, this comment is just information. Don’t come after me or anything. )

    This is random, but important. So I feel I should share for the good of kitties everywhere. I inherited two beautiful kittens a month ago. They were four months old when they came to me and weaned. Their previous owner fed them purina dried food. My kittens poop was so smelly I’d wear a mask to clean their litter box. Not that it helped much. They would also let off lethal stinkers which I was sure caused some of my brain cells to die. All the while however, I was looking for ways to give my kitties the best start in life. And I never believed commercial cat food was a part of that. I found lily’s dried food which is 75% meat/fish etc unlike purina which is so expensive for the rubbish it is (read the ingredients compared to lily’s). Whilst Lily’s is great for commercial pet food, it is expensive and despite having a high meat content, it wasn’t the be all and end all of cat food. I was already adding coconut oil to their commercial food for natural deworming, so next I switched to homemade food, added a few drops of cod liver oil, coconut oil, parsley/coriander/bit of both, teeny bit of grated carrot, and occasionally substitute the coconut oil for a drop of black seed oil. One of my kitties coats has gone from soft to super silky and shiny. He looks beautiful May Allah bless him. The other one whose fur was slightly rough when I got him, has now developed softness and a gentle sheen. He is a sort of sandy colour and will never have the same shine as his brother whose fur is a mix of dark and light taupe grey. Behaviour wise, they have also calmed down and above all, thank God their poop no longer stinks. They’re not letting off lethal stinkers either. Makes me wonder what purina was doing to their insides!? So far I’ve only given them chicken mince. Soon I’ll start incorporating a bit of liver and fish into their diet. I will continue giving them Lily’s dried food as I feel they need wet and dried food. It’s also more affordable that way. I also don’t know how to make dried cat food, nor have the time to do it. I don’t give them dairy products. I’m going be giving them bits of apple/carrots and whatever else is safe for them as treats today and see how they go. I’m still learning. But praise Allah, I feel we’ve gotten off to a good start . Giving my fur babies homemade food isn’t easy. You can’t just tear open a sachet and be done. It does require some preparation and adequate storage so your cats don’t get food poisoning. But it’s worth the effort seeing them blossoming and knowing they are getting the best start in life. ~ Kitty mommy to two beautiful boys.

And as a Pro, I have nothing to add to this amazing comment on how to change them to this great diet after them being "raised" on the worst of the worst. Alpo, Beneful, Kibble & Bits, Pedigree, etc...and yes, Purina... all of those "brand name" foods are full of fillers that cause (most) pets to scratch themselves raw from allergic dermatitis and drives owners crazy looking for nonexistent fleas. Or crazy bad diarrhea like most of my rescues arrive with😬🤢 The extrudiation process used to make kibble entails the break down of real food (meat, vegs, etc), heating it to over 400° multiple times and mixing in their "additional essential vitamins & minerals" to replace the ones lost when they abuse the food into pellets. And all of the RECALLS for Salmonella & such make it dangerous too (always feeding the same food makes it even worse).

    This is an amazing comment 👏😻👍 Right "on the nose", you "hit the nail on the head" in the best way 🤠🐈 Literally the only thing I'd say to you is to be watchful when you add liver (or any fatty meats) to their diet as too much can cause Pacreatitis (been there, done that...to myself & my dogs 😬). It's one of the causes of those mystery stains behind the couch. That and dairy, as most cats are lactose intolerant but hide their illness due to that "Survival of the Fittest" mentality and not wanting to appear weak or sick and risk getting "picked off" by OP (Other Predators). But you've already figured that out from the sound of it 👏🤠👍 I also like to recommend that people desensitize their pets to wearing a shirt or onesie because if (God forbid) they have to have stitches (on torso) it can be better than the "cone of shame" Elizabethan Collar. It can also be soaked w/water, wrung out and refrigerated for use on those hot summer days. But if you put it in the freezer, just don't leave it too long or it'll be too HARD to put on (pun intended 😹). And it'll warm them during winter cold snaps or power outages, of course. Help defend against mosquitoes and biting flies (more so for pets who go outside). And minimize irritation (& cleanups) if they like to roll in (buttercups like mine or) something smelly or toxic (again, more for outside pets). And yes praise Allah, you've gotten off to a great start with them. I'm guessing that I don't need to add my usual "Knowledge is Power. Think before you speak and research before you think." comment because it sounds like you already have!

    Oh, I forgot to add the easiest, safest way to start adding real food to a pet's diet is to look at the kibble label and add the same ingredients from your own food supply to it. Cooked carrots and peas are a safe place to start and are in most "pet industry foods". Though you may have to smash the peas if you have a picky pet like my Mighty Mouse who would eat a whole scoop of mushy peas but gently pick each whole pea out and drop it in a pile near her bowl 😹🤣😹 I share my own meals with my pets but make very sure that it contains none of the "bad foods" for each animal species. For example: I cook any onions, garlic, etc. SEPARATELY and add it in on my plate ONLY. Soup is the best way in my opinion, just scoop and mash, let cool and serve. Instant "canned" food 😋

Still up to this day i remember my dad beeing in our cellar, petting our cat inside the coffin he made for him, as he was still alive, tears in his eyes. We all loved our cat... but to him - it was his second baby. Burried him in our garden. So yea... always watch your cats behaviour and act if something is off.

    My cat's been taken to the vet many times, his pupils are always large. Vets have said nothing about it. He's been to multiple different vets and other than the diseases he's always had (He's a rescued stray, we're doing what we can to keep his health issues under control :3) he's perfectly fine according to them. Should I once again bring up the dilated pupils? In bright lighting, they shrink to slits, but other than when the sun is in his face they're massive.

    My 12 year old maine coon has slightly dilated pupils. His vet is incredibly thorough, and has checked them repeatedly. He's fine. These videos can be alarmist sometimes. Edit: if you are concerned about it, do go to the vet to make sure.

    Third eyelid isn't always necessarily serious. Sometimes when a cat has a cold, that appears. For some cats, it comes and goes (on and off again chronic issue)

    @@unabashed While seeing the nictitating membrane "isn't always necessarily serious" as you say, it is always a reason to see the Vet if it doesn't go away on its own in a short time &/or you can't find the cause and rectify it yourself. And btw, "a chronic issue" isn't exactly a good thing or an excuse to avoid the Vet. It has a chronic cause.

    I'm literally crying right now because of all the comments of cats passing away and their siblings looking for them and not understand that they aren't there anymore. I never want my cats to leave me but they will and I wish they wouldn't but I don't want them to feel pain as they are slowly dieing. They are both 7 years old and have been with me as long as I can remember and I can't imagine what it's like to lose them I'm crying while typing this. Thinking about my cats passing away and feeling guilty about it.

    Yeah, I agree. Many of these things we may not think about too much like if a cat is drinking more water or throwing up a little more. But yes, if they are dragging their back legs or even limping, that's a sure sign something is wrong. You don't have to be a doctor to know something is not right when your 4 legged fur baby is not walking on all 4 legs.

    I had a cat that was coughing, but I didn't recognize it as such. He had a very sensitive tummy and would often vomit with slight variations in diet so I thought he was going to vomit and quickly removed him from the furniture or my lap to the floor. He died within a few months vomiting clear liquid. He was the runt of the litter and while he grew up big, he always seemed to have some difficulties with his back legs (nothing close to the severity of what this video showed) and was a rather clumsy boy. After he died I researched all these symptoms and found out about the coughing and together with the clear liquid vomit when he died and the "clumsiness", it was very likely he had some sort of congenital heart disorder that worsened near the end and killed him. I'm sorry for shoving you off my lap so much, Little Guy, I just didn't know. Now I can recognize the signs of kitty heart issues, though so it won't happen to my potential future cats.

    Coughing can be symptomatic of a upper or lower respiratory infection which they can pick up from having been exposed to something from rats or mice or birds they may of consumed & can be extremely difficult to treat & can be fatal . It can also be fungal infection in the lungs which is ultimately fatal & requires longterm medicinal treatment to help provide as much comfort as possible if possible otherwise due to being terminal euthanasia is often recommended b/c it is infectious & can be passed onto other animals or pets.
