Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2006cat suddenly paralyzed
Yesterday my mom found my cat our inside/outside cat sitting by our aprtment in a daze. She could hardly stand or walk strait, and she was twitching/convulsing. We live in san antonio and It was a pretty hot day out, so my mom figured it was just heat stroke (alothough it had never happend befor and there's always plenny of water for her) and we got her to drink water till she wouldnt drink anymore. It's now been more then 12 hours and she's seems almost comletely paralized from the neck down.She doesnt seem to be in any kind of pain, but im sure she must have gotten hold of somesort of toxin, beacause my girlfriend saw her earlyer that morning and said she wasn't walking strait. We haven't taken her to a vet, and due to money we probably won't be able to. Does any one have any idea what might be wrong with her or what we can do? I Forgot to add. She has pooped once and peed atleast 2 times, she can kinda move her front legs and tail, but nothing ellse below her neck. >Yesterday my mom found my cat our inside/outside cat sitting by our >apartment in a daze.

SO >> SHUT YOUR f.cking MOUTH [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > please do the animal kingdom a favor and NEVER GET ANOTHER PET - NOT EVEN > A GOLDFISH! Ok, I realize vet bills can be high depending on what is done. But, your cat is obviously very sick! Most vets will work out something for you even for routine procedures like spaying/neutering. Your cat is not going to get better on its own and needs medical help. Call your local vet, say what happened, and ask about payment. It can't hurt to call. For all you know it could be something as simple as a shot which wouldn't cost much. At least call. We are only cat owners and can't help you with this. I feel very sorry for that poor creature and I'd have called my vet immediately even if I had $5 in my bank account. Most vets will work out something for you. Your cat is going to probably stay that way since nothing was done right away, but again, I don't know. For God's sake, pick up the phone and just talk to someone. That's free. >>> $10 a month for innternet aitn exactly an airm and a leg jack a.s. SO >>> SHUT YOUR f.cking MOUTH [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > nothing was done right away, but again, I don't know. For God's sake, > pick up the phone and just talk to someone. That's free. I'd also like to add that my vet didn't charge me at all for just looking at my cat when she had little black bumps all over her chin. He told me what was wrong and gave me some cleansing pads for the "acne." He didn't charge for the little "emergency" visit. I had called earlier in the day to see if I could come in and he told me to just bring her in. I bet your vet would do something similar. For such emergency situations they might work with you for payment. I can't stand to think of that poor cat having no clue what's going on and being paralyzed, possibly permanently for something so trivial as money when you don't even know what it will cost. At least try. I'm a teacher so believe me, I'm no stranger to being very strapped for cash. But, I love my little cat and I'd never forgive myself if I didn't at least talk to someone professional to see what might be going on.

Oh yes, this is adult-like behavior. you ever think that this kid might love his cat, but has no money to spend on a vet, and has no control over his parent's budget? Sometimes life is not as simple as we would like it to be. Maybe someone could treat this kid with just a little respect and try to explain what might be going on, and WHY it's so important to try to take the cat in to a vet, without being so ugly and insulting about it all. >>>>You have money for a computer and online connection but not >>>>enough to [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] >try to take the cat in to a vet, without being so ugly and >insulting about it all. Of course, you're quite right. I think people like me who are regulars on this NG, just get frustrated at the stupidity of the vast amounts of people that come here to ask what they should do, when it is obvious that instead of sitting in front of a computer, they should be driving to a vet. Regardless of a money situation. And if you are that poor, perhaps you should give your pet to a friend or a no-kill shelter so it can be taken care of properly. WELL SAID >I think people like me who are regulars on this NG, just get frustrated at >the stupidity of the vast amounts of people that come here to ask what they >should do, when it is obvious that instead of sitting in front of a >computer, they should be driving to a vet.

I would point out not everyone has a vet nearby 24/7. For all we know the nearest vet may be four hours away. And not everyone has a car. > I would point out not everyone has a vet nearby 24/7.

What do they have to gain posting on a newsgroup regardless of how far away? If the nearest vet is four hours away, then they live in the Saskachuwan forests or something, in that case I guess they would not have internet access either. LOL >Okay, lets say for sake of argument that this poster's vet is four hours >away. What do they have to gain posting on a newsgroup regardless of how >far away?

It shouldnt be to hard to get the bottle down your first time. remeber to keep a postitive mindsets during any exstreme parts of the trip. or this one From:SKuddo - view profile Date:Mon, Jul 3 2006 3:01 pm Email: "SKuddo" <sku...@gmail.com> Groups: alt.drugs.dxm I met this girl when i was livin in Chicago, and I ended up getting her hooked on DXM. For a while she was skipping school and barowing money just to get a fix. All her friends ended up turning on her. The funniest thing was she actualy kept a puke bucket ready in her room. After a while she relised what she was doin and doesnt do it any more though. My advice though, if he doesnt have a gf.. Get him one. This would probably help him alot or this one from the piece of sh.t earlier today From: SKuddo - view profile Date: Sun, Jun 11 2006 6:01 pm Email: "SKuddo" <sku...@gmail.com> Groups: alt.drugs.dxm Alright here's some ways to get down the liquid tussin. You need some: Gigner ale or sprite Jolly Ranger Candys 100% Lemon Juice Ice put the tussin in the Ginger ale with a 1:1 ratio (the carbination will help prevent vomiting) drop 1-3 Jolly Rangers in and wait for them disolve. As far as the lemon Juice gose its optional for this preperation, but i find lemonjuice counteracts the strong bitter nasty taste of dxm and keeps it desloved for better obsorption in the stumic. You need a good FL oz (maybe more) of the lemon juice. If you do not have Jolly Rangers if you use enough lemon juice it'll be just as easy to get down. The Ice is the final tuch, and is much needed. Its like the diffrents between drinking warm and cold beer or soda, Tuss is just much better on ice. For Zicam: The best way to get zicam down is to mix it with one of those Starbuck frapochino deals you can get at most any grocery and qickshop. This stuff is great. It gets that icky zicam taste out of your mouth and when/if you vomit it makes it come up alot smoother. >Okay, lets say for sake of argument that this poster's vet is four hours >away.

LOL My brother in law liveed in Nova Scotia for years. The nearest vet was clear on the other side of the island, about four hours away. He had internet access though. They do have phones and electricity. >>Okay, lets say for sake of argument that this poster's vet is four hours >>away.

If this were a medical group and someone came on and said that their son or other family member had suddenly become paralyzed no one would be saying "oh, that's ok if he doesn't go to the doctory because it may be quite a drive." When a living thing that you supposedly love and care for become paralyzed for no freakin' reason that you can see you most certainly should be doing something about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even if you live in the middle of no where! And we don't even know where the hell this kid lives. He's probably just troll anyway. After looking at some of his other drug related posts, let's hope that he's a troll and doesn't actually own an animal. If he really does, someone should come take it immediately! >Seriously...there's no need to keep going on the hypothesis that the person >may live far from a vet. If this were a medical group and someone came on [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >doesn't actually own an animal. If he really does, someone should come take >it immediately! Yes I agree that immdiate medical attention should be gotten. But reality is in many areas the nearest vet/doctor/hospital may very well be several miles away and transportation may very well be an issue. Wake up and smell the coffee: not everyone has an SUV in the drive wey they can hop into at a moments notice. And yes money can also be an issue. I've come accross vets who have insisted they had to have full peyment that day or they would put the cat to sleep. Not everyone is as rich as you. >>Seriously...there's no need to keep going on the hypothesis that the >>person [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > insisted they had to have full peyment that day or they would put the > cat to sleep.

Yes in an ideal world you'd get the cat to the vet in a matter of seconds and be able to dial 911 to get help right away. But you know what? It's not an ideal world. > Not everyone has a few thousand dollars to drop at s moments notice, > an SUV available 24/7, or a vet that is less than four hours away. few thousand? SUV? You are really stuck on this SUV thing, what's up with that? You have a severe case of SUV-envy. I hope you don't have any animals with your mentality. Poor animals. What if your cat was paralyzed? Oh, you'd be one of those sitting on your computer instead of TRYING to find a physical way to help your animal. Hurry, get your cat in a carrier and hitchhike to the vet. LOL (a further example that some of the dumbest people can still manage to work a computer). >few thousand? SUV? You are really stuck on this SUV thing, what's up with >that? You have a severe case of SUV-envy. No i'm tired of people who slam those who didn't evacuate in the recent floods around here, during Hurricane Katrina/Hurricane Rita/ etc. Too many of these people have the mistaken impression that everyone in the US can just hop in an SUV and evacuate/get to doctor/etc. Well i'm here to tell yout that even in the US of A there are people who are not rich, have no car, barley afford rent and other necessities. But yes there are actually some poor people in the US of A. >I hope you don't have any >animals with your mentality. Poor animals. What if your cat was paralyzed? >Oh, you'd be one of those sitting on your computer instead of TRYING to find >a physical way to help your animal. Hurry, get your cat in a carrier and >hitchhike to the vet. LOL I have a car to get the cat(s) to the vet, but I also recognize that not everyone is that fortunate. I've also had occasions where I was taking the cat to the vet and the car died. Some of us live in the real world where stuff like this happens. I'm glad poeple like you have a dozen cars you can use, that those cars never die, and that you have an unlimited supply of money. I also have money but I recognize that not everyone is that fortunate. There are too many in the US of A who bury their head in the sand and refuse to acknowledge that some people are homeless, poor, going hungry, etc. My God woman, you need psychological help. > No i'm tired of people who slam those who didn't evacuate in the > recent floods around here, during Hurricane Katrina/Hurricane Rita/ > etc. Too many of these people have the mistaken impression that > everyone in the US can just hop in an SUV and evacuate/get to > doctor/etc. WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING I SAID? > Well i'm here to tell yout that even in the US of A there are > people who are not rich, have no car, barley afford rent and > other necessities.

There ya go again being ridiculous. I'm done with talking to you, you are insane. Even if the person was 100 miles from a vet, and broke as dirt... sitting on the internet asking what they should do, is still pretty pointless. It doesn't matter in this case as the OP was a troll, but still there are a lot of people that come here and are legit, and they expect us to truly tell them how to fix their cat, when in reality the only one that can, is a vet. >Even if the person was 100 miles from a vet, and broke as dirt... sitting on >the internet asking what they should do, is still pretty pointless. Agreed but not everyone has an SUV sitting in the drive way ready to drive to the vet in. Some people don't have a car or the means to get to the vet. And around here in the US of A they don't allow pets on buses/traisn/taxi cabs. I'm glad some people are so ric they have an SUV in the drive way at a moments notice. Not everyone is that rich. Nobody has come up with an alternate suggestion of what this person should do. >It >doesn't matter in this case as the OP was a troll, but still there are a lot >of people that come here and are legit, and they expect us to truly tell >them how to fix their cat, when in reality the only one that can, is a vet. A agree a vet is sometimes needed and is the preferred choice but here in the real world that is easier said than done. You've never been stuck where your car sh.t the bed and is in the shop?

Every post of yours is going on about SUVS... having tons of money... tons of cars... rich parents.... what is your problem?

I'm older than dirt. Many years ago people had compassion for the poor, they was honesty and integrity. That has since been tossed under the bus. Now there is a general opinion in the US of A that if you're not worth a few billion dollars that you can just drop dead. That is the kind of country the US has degenerated into. "Barnabas Collins" <BarnabasCollinsonSF@gmail.com> You really are missing my point and it has nothing to do WITH NOT HAVING A CAR! For goodness sake, ANSWER FOR ME what is asking this question on the internet going to help a person if they have a cat that truly is in trouble? Especially if that person is not going to go to the vet no matter what we say. It's like talking to a brick wall with some people on this NG. >"Barnabas Collins" <BarnabasCollinsonSF@gmail.com> > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >Especially if that person is not going to go to the vet no matter what we >say. It's like talking to a brick wall with some people on this NG. And you seem to be under the dilusion that everyone on her is in the US of A, has millions of dollars in the bank, and has a dozen cars in the driveway ready to use at a moments notice. Not everyone is that well off. Some people are not that well off. And yes there are areas of the US of A where the nearest vet is four hours away, and if you miss them on Friday afternoon they are closed until Monday. Oh I forgot.....you live where there is a vet right next door and is open 24/7. Takes you two seconds to walk there. But yes the ideal situation would be to see a vet, but cats rarely cooperate in this matter. If they're going to get sick they will do it late Friday afternoon when the Vet doesn't open again until Monday. > And you seem to be under the dilusion that everyone on her is in the > US of A, has millions of dollars in the bank, and has a dozen cars in > the driveway ready to use at a moments notice. And there you go again with millions of dollars and dozens of cars. You are obsessed. I have one car that is 6 years old. I have a regular old 40 hour a week job. I have a budget, I stick to my budget, I save my money as best I can IN CASE THERE IS AN EMERGENCY. Geez, if you can't afford to care for a pet, don't have one. If you have a sick pet and cannot pay for its bills, bring it to a no-kill shelter!!!!!!! > And yes there are areas of the US of A where the nearest vet > is four hours away, and if you miss them on Friday afternoon they > are closed until Monday. Okay I'll bite, where do you know of in the U.S. off the top of your head that a vet is as far away as four hours? > Oh I forgot.....you live where there is a vet right next door and > is open 24/7.

Damn those scheming cats! Still you haven't answered my question. What are WE average joes supposed to do to help a cat of a person just talking to us on a computer? If you can't get it to a vet, I guess it is just going to die, because you or I are not going to be able to save it with our computer. If you go on feeling sorry for yourself because you drive a beater, live 4 hours from the vet, have no money and are poor and homeless, I'm going to come over and beat you over the head with YOUR computer that you can afford. >Okay I'll bite, where do you know of in the U.S. off the top of your head >that a vet is as far away as four hours? West Virginia. BTW, I would add i'm pretty well off but i'm the probably the only one that doesn't participate in the favorite sport of the US of A.....,kicking the poor when they're down. Many years ago people had compassion for others. Now it is just screw your neighbor, stab them in the back and kick them in the teeth. >>Seriously...there's no need to keep going on the hypothesis that the >>person [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > > Not everyone is as rich as you. Ha! Apparently you've never seen my profession in a post. I'm a teacher. I think I literally just laughed out loud when I saw the "not everyone is as rich as you" part of that post. Yeah...not everyone is as rich as me. Most people are way more rich than me and yet if my cat woke up unable to move, I'd still do something about it. I really don't see why you're so hell bent on defending any part of this stupid post.

To be fair the original poster may be posting on the computer at work, at the local library, or in an internet cafe. The poster may also be using a free Wi Fi connection. As far as the cat goes i'd have a vet look at it. I would suspect nerve damage, posible broken bones, etc. The vet really needs to do xrays to diagnos. I would point out that the fact that the cat can go to the bathroom indicates there is not total paralysis.
