I had a call to visit a 8 months not vaccinated cat being bitten by a stray cat. The owner yells " my cat sinks.. its cold.. dyeing, please help". I went to see the cat at 11pm. By that time it was 46hrs post bite and many vets gave many opinion without seeing it. The owner had a busket fu...ll of all medicines.. augumentin,betnesol, liv52, nise syp, meloxicam, temobax, .... and the vet who saw it last 2 days said it will die, just admit in CUPA!!
My story could have been the sam ,if I had not gone there and seen. The cat had been going through internal bleeding, mucosa became pale,temp 102.3*f,not eating. wound is healthy ,no organs outside.
simple treatment.. stryptovit 1/5 every 8hrs, Relyte redyuse solution 1 tsp every hour, augumentin as before. The cat is fine now.
Outcome of story:: it is better to see the animal before prescribing and giving prognosis!! comments are welcome.
