Cloudy Eye in one eyed Cat

whezrsfriend - 28 Oct 2005 01:15 GMT I know there is going to be some moron on this group who will post "take it to the vet" AFTER IVE already SAID I CANNOT afford to do that. Besides most vets don't do any better than I do after I've researched the issue.
I have a cat who I adopted as a stray who is getting along in years. It had a serious infection when I first got it on the side of the head and we treated it and it survived with antibiotics. However it lost that eye, which is still there, but blind.
The other eye is starting to get cloudy-like a dull milky film. What meds can I order from a vet supply store to treat this eye so as to extend it's life? I hate to see this cat go totally blind and then I will have to put it to sleep I guess or let it suffer. He can still see, but probably his vision in the remaining eye is not too good. I'd say it is around 10% or more opaque. He still seems to get around ok.
Please respond to the question only, I will ignore idiots who start moralizing me about taking the cat to the vet. Vets are outrageous nowadays and many are incompetent, just as regular doctors here in the USA. And then they act like they are doing you a big favor by seeing you. Not all, but many.
whezrsfriend - 28 Oct 2005 01:21 GMT Also, would it hurt to use some cat antibiotic eye drops in that eye, given previously for infection in other eye?

this site has information including advice about blind cats: http://www.vetinfo.com/cateye.html
bear in mind that a blind cat is not necessarily suffering many blind pets carry on just fine, they know their own environment and can cope quite well, just as blind people do!

Please consider NOT taking in animals that you cannot care for. It isn't fair to them. Your cat needs to see the vet, whether or not you can afford it. Vets are not that expensive--many of us here take our cats in regularly and know this.
No More Retail - 28 Oct 2005 03:31 GMT Still didn't answer how old in the cat the reason I ask that is at a certain age you can expect cataracts, eye infections come easier, glaucoma, hypopyon, anterior uveitis, retinal hemorrhage, retinal detachment
since you are not going to vet unless absolutly necessary try this home pet examination http://netscape.petplace.com/Articles/artShow.asp?artID=2690&q=cloudy+eye
information can be found on this site about above problems
the medications taht was used before for the other infection may not even be necessary. take a look at the information we might be able to help BUT UNDERSTAND NONE OF HERE ARE VETS

I didn't answer because I have no idea how old he is. He is arthritic, hard of hearing and sleeps alot. I give him lots of affection and good food. He loves me and will allow me to touch him anywhere, even though when I first adopted him from a dead neighbor (b4 he was a stray), he was frightened of all people and would not allow anyone near him. He almost died from the infection and I have taken him to the vet b4, but the vets here are real a*hole s in contrast to vets I know as a child who were wonderful. Plus they are outrageous in their fees-totally outrageous imo. The ones I've seen here have little or no concern for animals, it is only business to them. It is probably a cataract or glaucoma, does not look like it is infected. Just would like to delay or prevent his going blind in second eye. I am smart, I will research it thoroughly and order from a vet supply firm.

No, No, No! I'm not responding to your question, but I do want to emphasize the point that a cat *does not* need to be "put to sleep" merely because it is blind, and your cat does not need to suffer. I speak from experience. Duffy is totally blind, and he is a dear, sweet, good-natured cat -- and also a remarkably happy and active cat. He is a little gymnast who loves to climb, so he gets a great deal of exercise by using his "vertical space" instead of running wildly through the house on a horizontal level. On the other hand, he moves around the house so easily that I have had visitors who watched him for 15 or 20 minutes before they realized he is blind. So, *please* do not even consider euthanasia as an "option" even if your cat loses sight in his other eye. If you look at the albums below my signature, you can see Duffy at play.

What [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > http://tinyurl.com/8y54 (Introducing Duffy to Holly) > http://tinyurl.com/8y56 (Duffy and Holly "settle in") We had a cat that got cataracts as he got older. He was blind several years and got around fine. I could even get him to "play" with a pencil or stick by tickling his whiskers. He totally will adjust if he goes blind. We just didn't move the furniture much.
No More Retail - 28 Oct 2005 04:57 GMT We have a blind cat at the shelter; he stays in the play area of the staff building. The kids love Charley to death they find it " cool " that he can be blind and still play like a kitten. He knows when I walk in the door and he comes a meowing; he knows I carry treats in my pockets for my four legged children. When my wife comes in she better have her hands free or Charley will trip her up into she picks him up. YES WE SPOIL THE CHILDREN

You really need to get this cat to a vet ASAP. It may mean the difference between him retaining his vision or going blind (and just because a cat goes blind doesn't mean he is suffering and must be killed). The thing is, unless you know the exact cause of the eye issue, there is no way to know how to treat it. All eye problems are not equal and there is not a one-size-fits-all cure. Even more problematic is the fact that there are many eye medications that can make the eye worse if you are using the wrong one. And finally, anything that may be effective as a treatment will most likely require a prescription from the vet. Please borrow the money and get your cat to the vet so you can get the right treatment for him and hopefully save his remaining good eye. It's the right thing to do and if you try hard enough I believe you'll find a way.

I have 25 cats to care for on a one person salary and sorry, but most of my money pays for their care, including **whatever vet care is necessary at the time it is necessary,** regardless of whether it's convenient for me or not.

Instead I use that time in a constructive fashion to make sure I get whatever finances are needed.
The bottom line here is you have taken responsibility for another living being that is unable to help themselves, therefore it is on you to do what's right and get your cat the help he needs.

And to tell other people how to spend their money and when to borrow. As I predicted in my OP there would be one moron who cannot read and ignore my caveat that I cannot take it to the vet and still tell me to do so. You win the award. Your like the liberals who go around telling others whom they should support with their tax money. Most of the people I know who have 25 cats also have a loose screw, you are no exception. I have no responsiblity to this cat who was a stray.It would have been dead a long time ago if not for me. I you want to spend your finances on cats, go ahead, just don't go around telling others they have to follow your edicts.
I really think if you have the money you have a responsiblity as a cat lover to loan me the money.I'm waiting for your phone number, or you can just give me your address and I come on over.

do you know what happened to the other eye? Is the same thing happening? Is there a ball in the other socket?

You could probably make enough money to get your cat treated by becoming a research subject in a psychiatric institution.

>It would have been dead a long time ago >if not for me. That doesn't justify your current cruel treatment and neglect of this poor animal, and now it is suffering and becoming blind because of you. If you care so little for the welfare of this animal, find it a good home with someone that is willing to care for it properly.

She's now back to good health and I found her a really wonderful home with a family that is very responsible and doesn't hesitate to take their animals to the vet immediately when something is wrong. It's a travesty that your cat is not so blessed.

whezrsfriend,
I know that you have said that you will not spend the money to take the cat to the vet. I'm not sure if that means that you can't afford to spend anything, or just are not willing to seek help by whatever means, or you are so certain that all vets are nothing but greedy and incompetent and don't want to take a chance that you might find one who would prove you wrong.
Let's put aside all other concerns and focus on what will help the cat because the cat need help and cannot help itself.
Here are some things you can do:
You can call local rescue groups and ask for recommendations of what to do with this cat.
There may be someone on this group who lives near you or has knowledge of a vet near you who is competent. Are you willing to put aside for a moment your conviction that all vets are greedy and incompetent and state the general area where you are in order to let them help you locate a suitable vet?
If a suitable vet is found, are you willing to call the vet with a description of the cat's problem and ask for an estimate of the cost of treatment?
Will you post here how much you are willing to pay to help this cat who cannot help itself?
Will you provide to this group the vet's estimate of the treatment and how the vet may be located so that anyone interested could donate the money directly to the vet for that cat's situation.
I doubt that anyone would consider giving you personal loan, considering your hostile attitude and disrespect, but there are people here who care about the cat and might help, in spite of your belief that we are all "morons" or other name calling on your part.
But in the end it is up to you to do your part. And, yes, you may not have asked for it, but without you taking on your responsibility, nobody here can help the cat.
As for Megan, you will not find anyone who has done more for the cats in her care and the cats she has rescued and placed in loving homes.
Best wishes for helping this cat. Annie

Are you willing to > put aside for a moment your conviction that all vets are greedy > and incompetent and state the general area where you are in > order to let them help you locate a suitable vet? I spoke to many about this with a dog I had. I came to the conclusion that they are all pretty bad-very expensive and uncaring from the people I talked to. I live in a City that is substandard. It is difficult to find ethical and competent professionals in ANY profession. I have not been to the doctor in some time because the doctors here stink compared to where I grew up. You obviously did not read all my posts. I would never say they are ALL incompetent and unethical, but I have been to two and both were. One didn't know as much as I did about proper treatment after I read several vet school articles on the subject and both insisted on full payment on the spot at outrageous rates. Obviously the vet schools, like so many other prof. schools are making little effort to sort out people who are looking to make money from people who care about what they are doing. This is symptomatic of the present state of our Kountry, where incompetence is more the rule than the exception and where people are successful regardless of their ethical/moral standards-just look at our atheletes.
> If a suitable vet is found, are you willing to call the vet with > a description of the cat's problem and ask for an estimate of > the cost of treatment? Obviously you haven't called many vets around here because they don't give estimates over the phone. They expect you to pay a consult fee just to give an estimate. They are greedy, mercenary a*sho*les. I almost file licensing complaints against the two I mentioned above.
> Will you post here how much you are willing to pay to help this > cat who cannot help itself? The point is mute, the cat's eye is not a bad as I first thought, so he is doing ok for now.

> I doubt that anyone would consider giving you personal loan, > considering > your hostile attitude and disrespect, but there are people here > who care about the cat and might help, in spite of your belief > that we are all "morons" or other name calling on your part. Well, if people wouldn't act like morons, I wouldn't stoop to their level.

I would also like to comment that coming into the discussion hostile because you do not or will not find the resources to take care of this cat is really bad form. Anyone who cares about these creatures would get upset at the notion of a cloudy eye going untreated, and you are being unfair to DEMAND that we don't.

I would say most of us have been up against financial hardship, and having to find a way for our pet to see a vet. You do what you have to to be a responsible person. OP, I do hope you will make some financial arrangements and get the cat some professional help.

OP, I do hope you will > make some financial arrangements and get the cat some professional help. Exactly. When I was a graduate student (*many* years ago), my cat needed surgery and I was barely "scraping by" on a graduate assistant's pay. I made arrangements to pay for the surgery in installments. It took a year-and-a-half to finish payments, but it was well worth it. Moreover, I used to joke that my cat had a healthier diet during that time than I did -- and despite the joking, it was actually true. However, he needed it for recuperation, and I was healthy. That cat was the love of my life (just as my two furbabies are now), and he lived to be almost 20 years old. As a couple of other people have said, we do what we have to do.

If the dogs had been the love of our lives, then sure, I reckon we would have viewed the whole thing differently. There are many people who would have done the same as you, there are many people who would say it is not affordable; and put the cat down.
I know you are not saying this; but IMO; I think as adults we should accept the idea that not everyone feels the same, and to me this is ok. A cat being put to sleep is in fact painless to the cat. I do put a higher value on the quality of human life than animals.
Just sharing my 2 cents.

as in.. You don't put value on human life...didn't mean it to sound this way :) but of course you do!

you've spent more time replying to the money matter than talking about the eye. It's no wonder you have not got any decent ideas about the problem.
Who cares if you have money or not, you're going to do what you want and what you can afford. If you THOUGHT anyone on here might spare a dime...after that little jagged post? hehehe
Now you are ready to shoot the cat?
Yeah, just post you're address and sit back and wait for the dollars to roll in. Everyone loves to give money to a cat shooter.
Why are you letting a few, spoil the matter!

You can't treat eye problems in cats yourself because you don't know the cause. The wrong treatment will make the problem worse. You don't know which medication the cat needs because you can't diagnose the problem.
If you're too cheap and ignorant to take the cat to a vet- rehome the cat. You're far too cheap and ignorant to be entrusted with a cat's life.
Btw, blind cats live near normal lives- with the right caretaker- which ain't you. So don't have the killed because you're a, ignorant, cheap moron.

That is not necessarily true: many people without computers have Internet access through schools and libraries, or through work, and various free e-mail addresses. There is even a clue in the message header: the orginization is given as DFN-Verein - DFN is a the German research net - clearly academic related.

And I do got a question for you my epiliptic cat Rumble takes 2 2.5mg of diazepam a day every so often he gets 10cc cortizone shots when he starts to like his hair off. The question is is there any natural product that promotes hair growth in the cats or helps promote a fuller coat.
Thanks

Cats out the bag buddy, people LOVE the experience you bring to the table.
like..."Btw, blind cats live near normal lives- with the right caretaker-"
as for the rest of the post...drip drip drip, lawd!
However. This group has been known to make posts that have nothing to do with cats, and if need be, you can tell us all about it.
What's wrong, just tell it!
You are hemmed up or something, and you are venting on well meaning people here, AAAALLLL under the guise of your "Love for Cats"...
Now there is some rich bullshit! Gimmie a break.

I've been hanging out in here for years. Phil and I butted heads briefly at the outset over nutrition issues; however, it was an education for me.
...don't get a swelled head Phil! :)
whitershadeofpale - 28 Oct 2005 20:40 GMT Yes, I agree, it seems that Phil is a blessing to this group.
aaand, I've said my mind, I too appreciate the knowledge and experience that Phil freely offers.
Phil has chosen to learn the things he has, same as someone else might know about people medsin, or horse medsin, and so on. Or a car mechanic, or a computer specialist.
Having knowledge AND experience is great, for a specific practicing; but It is not directly related to our people skills; and/or our personal opinions.
For the record, is Phil a Vet?

All that above bullcrap was just a nice way of saying
f.ck that rude a.s punk
that nasty little cat infested, smart mouthed arsehole
Ahhh what's wrong Phil, couldn't get your degree to be vet?
So now your disposed to set on a dim a.s computer, hurling bitter insults to good well meaning people.
ANYMUTHERFUCKING THING GOES As long as you mention something, some trivial a.s point about a cat? BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT! Your a bitter a.shole!
But a goodone, you'd make a fine a.shole sir, you should be able to make a living at it.
You ain't never helped me, and as far as I can see, don't nobody give a good ghotdamn what the f.ck you call a cat tooth! who the f.ck cares! NOT ME
Phil don't know sh.t, he's a got a damn cat book, he quotes from.
Knowing something about the subject, makes him somebody in his own esteem, however, don't nobody give a rats a.s what you have to contribute, I sho the f.ck don't, I have never seen one useful bit of practical info that you have contributed DICK WEED! Other than an occasional laugh
Now, having said this...on the other hand. Cheryl has contributed WAY more useful info than you have.
The crap you post, I can read that for my damnself.
So there dingaling, roll that up and lick it yourself.
Yeah, plenty of people contribute, you're just always first in line for a pissing match, but the sh.t that comes out of your mouth ain't worth the bandwidth it takes to post it. Unplug your computer, and shut the f.ck up, you inbred, cornbread, bald a.s nobody.

Btw, I found two very good articles by Dr. Rush on HCM and arterial thromboembolism from last year's Northeast Veterinary Conference. I'd be glad to send them to you if you'd like.

I looked at the ACVECC web site. I was disappointed to find that he is the closest ACVECC Diplomate to where we live (it's about a 1 1/2 hour drive to Tufts). I sure wish there was an emergency vet with his credentials nearby. I didn't count the names on the list, but it seems there are less than a hundred ACVECC Diplomates in the whole country.

ACVECC certification is very tough and requires a lot of actual clinical emergency experience- that's very hard work in itself. Its definitely not just a paper title.

It's comforting to know that I'm not the only one who's allowed themselves to get "pussy whipped". I've learned that in a battle of will with a cat, I'm gonna lose. Especially with TK, who is the most stubborn cat I have ever met. The other cats that we.ve lived with learned, at least, that "NO" meant "not while I'm watching". TK just looks at us like "Hey, f**k you, I'm a cat", and then does whatever he wants.

Phil's a good guy. As are most people on this group. You just sort of have to take his negative attributes with his positive ones. For the most part his positive ones outweigh the negative for me, at least.

You had a real desire to learn and understand feline nutrition. You did a lot of research and contacted pet food companies for nutrient data sheets and compared the nutrient values. You weren't just arguing for the hell of it because you were a dry food proponent.

You don't seem to understand that you can't order the proper medication because you don't know what's wrong with the eye. If you use the wrong medication, you can cause permanent, irreversible damage and severe pain. Even a cheap a.shole like you should be able to figure that much out.

Know a lot about dialysis for cats, do you?
You're clearly not suited to be entrusted with a cat's life. Take your cat to a vet and ask him to find him a home. When the vet asks you why, tell him because you're too cheap and stupid to be entrusted with a cat's life. Once the vet meets you, he'll understand completely.

[quoted text clipped - 36 lines] > You're the kind of fuckwit who would keep a pet with kidney > failure on dialysis just to satisfy you own selfish needs. Your cat is going to lose the sight in his one good eye if you don't take him in to a vet. How can you live with that?

There really are some wonderful vets around. Maybe you could do a little legwork and find one. Try calling the local no-kill shelters and see who does volunteer or reduced rate work for them.

I know there are some, I just don't have the fat bank account to sort through all the mercenary pr*cks. I tried calling the cat shelter here and they are too damn pussified to give a recommendation.
