MY Cat wally is sick with what my vet THINKS is heart disease. He was doing good after getting his chest cavity drain for the second time but then he started to get worse. He hasn't eatin more then a few treats in 3 days and will smell food and gag at it. He sits by his bowl like he wants to eat then walks away .I called my vet for help and the receptionist said she was in surgery she would call me back. I called after 4 1/2 hours to make sure tghey didnt forget me and again, they will call me back. When i finally got a call back it wasnt even the vet it was her receptionist. I had asked what type of heart disease he may have and if we could try some kind of medication for his heart (he's only on a diaretic). She told me the doctor has no idea what kind of heart disease he has and i would need to go to a Cardiologist. But she wasnt sure if that was a good idea because he gets so stressed and they can't get near him unless they gas him. Her only advice was to try giving him 5mg of pepcid-ac once a day to ease nasuea so maybe he could eat. I've been doing nothing but crying. I have no more money to afford a specilist. I already owe $500 or so dollars to my other vet. I am just heart broken and sick over this. I'm sorry to ramble and i really don't expect an answer because i have no question but What am i going to do? and no one here can answer that. From what i've read about heart disease that got as severe of symptoms as his the outlook seems bleak because from what i can gather (even though my vet didnt say this) i think the first time we took him in his heart was failing.
