Feline Neuter Surgery For Persian Cat, Cyrus
Treatment Cost (USD): $300.00
Cyrus is a 2 year old Persian cat who underwent feline neuter surgery at Jarrettsville Veterinary Center. Persian cats are "brachycephalic," meaning they have flat faces. ("Bracychephaly" means "short skull.")
Brachycephalic cats like Cyrus can sometimes have breathing difficulties due to their anatomy, and they are at higher risk for breathing complications during surgery.
For this reason, extra precautions were taken during Cyrus's neuter to ensure that he could breathe properly. This resulted in the costs being a little higher than they would be for a straightforward neuter of a non-brachycephalic breed.

An Unblocking Procedure On A 4 Year Old Feline (cat)
Treatment Cost (USD): $1446.00
Ricky came in to Jarrettsville Vet Center with symptoms of not urinating and hiding in his house as well as vomiting. His owners were concerned that he wasn't acting like himself. After an examination he was determined to have a urinary blockage. Ricky had urinary problems for about a month prior to the eventual blockage. This is a common occurrence with cats and it is important to talk with your vet about a treatment plan.

Cat With Allergies
Treatment Cost (USD): $335.50
Took my cat was taken in to the vet in May to treat allergies, difficulty breathing (snoring sounds) and a head tilt. Eyes don't look the same. One eye's pupil is smaller. Was given an exam, anti inflammatory, antibiotic (convenia), vitamin b-12, ear drops, and an X-ray of lungs. Vet did not communicate with me about any of the issues. I've been a client for 5-6 years. Vet tech said she hoped cat didn't have Horner's syndrome. I didn't know what it was or what to say. She said the "next step" would be seeing a specialist. I did not know what that meant either, as they had never said this to me. They were busy I had dropped off the cat between appts and came back to pick him up.
thank you SOOO VERY MUCH for helping these cats and sharing their story.
can you tell me where you are located and who helped you with their treatments?
Thanks again!

Hello,
Thanks so much for your reply. I’m located in Germany at the north coast. There is a group called “Gemeinsam gegen FIP” (translates at “together against FIP”). They have experienced people that help with treatment. So far they helped me with every cat, too.
They have a homepage, too: https://gemeinsamgegenfip.jimdofree.com/
It is a bit chaotic and I don’t think it is avaiable in english, but they have english speaking people. I know they have helped severel cats outside Germany, too.
