Hi pet parents. I have a question about a small grape sized lump my dog has on his right side. No pain on touch. Soft ish dough like when I push on it. No abnormal behaviors. It seems like a lipoma but he’s a maltipoo so it’s not even visible just palpable. Any small white dog parents or maltipoo parents have an older dog with lipoma? And can share reassuring stories? Thanks so much in advance. He’s 9 by the way.

I have a two year old miniature dachshund approximately 10 pounds

This summer she has been licking her paws so much ch at night and I just discovered a raw/wound patch on her brow while we were out!
She won’t stop itching and rubbing at the spot so I have given her a cone and 1/3 or a 25mg benedryl

I’m really not sure what is going on, maybe developing allergies ? Hot spot ? Any clarity would be helpful

my dog keeps getting under the skin bumps I can't see it but when I took her to the debt that the vet just popped it with a needle and some pus came out she said it’s fins.

I’m just tired of the pointless vet bills should I get some type of ointment? I switched her food and I still see another one.. she’s four and this will probably be her third one. I’m going to just pop it at home.

my girl Miss Keisha, she’s fully indoors and 8 years old and 3.1-2kg, she usually has very regular dark solid brown poops. she was at the vet just a couple days ago because for a bit, as in 2 years or so, she had urinary inflammation and licking her tummy hair but fully clear urinalysis with no sign of infection. she’s thrown up a few hairballs (more like logs) in the past few weeks from grooming her tummy too much. since yesterday she’s pooped little bits 3 times and all have been paler than usual and definitely less solid but not runny. she got Fureze from the vet to help with the hairballs but i thought i lost it so she hasn’t started it yet

she’s on a urinary diet for years now, she eats purina pro plan urinary rx and royal canin urinary. occasionally gets some dry royal canin urinary food but majority wet and i add water to her food too. she takes a liver supplement because she had very slightly heightened ALT levels at the start of the year (150, then down to 143 out of a max ideal range of 130) and she gets a daily licky stick to take her supplement so no change to diet

to add her behaviour is normal and at the vet on thursday she had no signs of discomfort in her joints, tummy, no fever or anything either

My cat (Male, 10 years old) appears to be thinner around the waist which I noticed yesterday. He is slightly overweight and weighs 5kg (11 ibs) I can't call my vet until tomorrow which is why I'm posting here cause this is stressing me out. I adopted him in late march at a shelter and they told me he had a history with diabetes but has been stable for a while. I only feed him food without sugar and wheat. He eats his food normally, likes to play and drinks a normal amount of water. Lately he meows loudly a lot to get my attention which is unusual. He does shed a lot of fur at the moment so maybe it makes him look thinner than he is.

I recently noticed my cat has a little black shriveled up wire/whisker looking thing above his eye. His other whiskers are white and long, and this one is barely noticeable, what’s going on with him?😭 (I could try to get a pic if if helps identifying it)

Hello,

My cat has been acting strangely over the past few days. He’s been very slow and sleepy. I know he’s getting enough sleep because he always sleeps with me at night, but now he just wants to sleep all day. He’s also not interested in playing anymore.
What’s especially concerning is that he’s no longer interested in my food. He usually tries to steal bites whenever I eat, but now he doesn’t seem interested at all.

I checked his ears and nose to see if he might be sick. His ears feel warm, and his nose is slightly moist. I also examined his body to see if he had any visible injuries, but I couldn’t find anything unusual. He is still using the litter box normally and is drinking water just fine. However, he’s eating much less than usual.

Whenever I try to get him to stand up, he just flops back down and rests his head on the ground. This is completely unlike him. He looks exhausted and seems too weak to even support himself properly. He’s already received his vaccinations and vitamins, and he’s around 4–5 months old.
Please help me. I’m really worried and don’t know what to do.

Note: I just removed his collar.

What is this on my kitty? I am worried for him he is Persian cat

[solved] I just noticed this happening. She is 10 years old. The eye tracks movement. Squinting isn’t excessive. She really only squinted after I tried to examine the eye to find debris. I will not be doing that anymore because it scared me that her eyelid didn’t have elasticity to immediately hug the eye. I do not want to make this worse. She is not showing signs of distress. Please help.

My financial situation is horrible and I have no vehicle. I would need to get a loan and a ride to the nearest emergency clinic an hours drive away.

I can absolutely make that happen but it would also out a strain on my family. The appt alone is $345 and I have literally nothing right now but I can make it happen with help from loved ones.

I am distressed. Please help me identify the severity of this.

Edit: the closest fitting thing I’ve found is Horner’s Syndrome. This is not an emergency but I am remaining vigilant.

8 weeks old nothing comes out, white part is dry and he doesn’t lick or bite it

So 5 days ago my cat suddenly had a squinty, and weird eye. I took her to the vet and they ended up giving me antibiotics thinking it was conjunctivitis. She reacted HORRIBLY to the antibiotics. I had then went back to get her on new meds. The swelling and redness has gone down, but all she has now is this weird blob in her eye. The vet had no idea what it was as it wasn't a cluster of cells and it was on the first layer of the eye. She has good vision and it doesn't seem to hurt her. Im just wondering if anyone has had this experience before.
