I have a 12 year old golden retriever that has developed a red bump on her skin under her fur. The lump is not painful to touch and she does not seem to notice it, but it has grown quite a bit in the last few weeks and I can see little blood vessels inside of it. She has a vet appointment in 10 days, but I am really hoping someone can tell me if they recognize this bump in the photo and tell me what it could be. I have putting castor oil on it which is why it has goop around it. She is also panting a lot, regardless of the room temperature.

My 13 yr old feline, DLH with multiple teeth cleanings and extractions started sneezing Fall 2023. My vet recommended Lyseine, which has helped. She had another teeth cleaning and single extraction Nov 2024. This weekend she began sneezing multiple times a day and now has runny eyes. I would also swear her lips are inflamed around her whiskers. I contacted the vet and we will try an antibiotic. What else should I do to assist? I am getting a humidifier and will keep her in my bathroom when I shower each day. Should I change her litter type? They both currently use Dr. Elyse Attract Long Hair. Obviously if the antibiotic doesnt work I will take her back in for further examination, Thank You!

My cat is an American short hair and is two years old,suddenly he stopped eating his food (he eats Smalls, ground chicken and turkey)and started vomiting yellow but when he is throwing out it sounds like he is chocking, he is being acting very different no eating ,no playing and I try to feed him and hydrate him with a syringe but he vomits every time. This happened like 4 months ago too and I took him to the vet and it was so expensive and did not help me at all,they made an x ray and didn’t find anything and I change his food because in that time he only ate dry food. I thought everything was find now with wet and quality food but is happening again. Please help me if you have any idea what can I do?. I have no pet insurance and no budget to spend on vets.

Hi. I have a 17 year old cat( Approximately calico. She has elevated liver and kidney levels but not too bad and is on KD dry food but loves wet also. About 2 months ago she started grooming excessively. Now her front legs are brown , not white anymore and everwhere she sleeps she leaves brown stains. 2 vets have said it’s iron in her saliva .. she is on a very low dose gabapentin and she has gotten a bit better with the excess grooming . I have been told that all cats have iron in their saliva but why all of a sudden is it so much and is there anything to do. Fecal urine and bloodwork mostly normal

Hello Dr. Magnifico,

My golden retriever has been having a problem with hematomas on both ears for the last few months. We have tried everything short of surgery. I saw a video of you on YouTube treating a labrador with a drain. Is this very successful? Do you know of any vet close to me who does this technique. If not, I am willing to come to you. We are really at our wit’s end.

Thank you,

Lenore DeLorenzo

Levi has hind legs due to IVDD. I’m so saddened to see him like this. He is only 4.5 years old and otherwise very active and happy. Dr. Magnífico your videos of Hank’s progress has given me hope. My question is why is he trembling despite being resting and under pain and anti-inflammatory medication? He can move his front legs, but he is not eating and just drinks water with a syringe. His symptoms began on Saturday, December 28. The Vet saw him Sunday morning and said we should keep him strictly rested for about 30 days. He is urinating and defecating on his diapers. My wife keeps him clean and changes his position every three hours. Day six no progress. Is there hope and is the trembling part of the recovery process? Also he can’t lift his head and is there a way to know if he is suffering from Myelomalacia? I appreciate you Dr. Magnífico for your passion in caring for our beloved furry family!

Hey so a couple of months ago,my dog had a sort of a film that was covering his eye and it has been growing and it seemed like a bother ( I could see his perception greatly reduced. I asked the former owner about it but he told me that it might be age. I overlooked it until it started to become to disturbing, he’s been getting a lot of eye discharge. No matter how much I remove,it simply comes back the following day. I live in a very rural area and there’s no vetinary close and to top it off I’m ina non-english speaking country and I don’t know any other language besides that.so I decided to ask for help, and that’s how I’m here, I also took note that this film is somewhat forming in his other eye,very easy to overlook but I can’t afford to, if anyone can offer some sort of help or advice I would really appreciate it.

Hi, I’m just about to bring my cat home who has multiple rib fractures. She was hit by a car. She is not eating on her own nor drinking. I’m not even sure how to pick her up. I’m pretty scared is there any advice that someone could give me.

My German Shepherd has a bump on her upper eye lid for about a week and a half and I’m wondering if any one has an idea what it is. I’m wondering if it’s a wart or something. The first picture is how it started and the 2nd and 3rd picture are today.

My two year old cat has been mouth breathing to the point of his entire mouth being wet from drool for the last two hours. His tail is swishing back and fourth and he’s yelling everytime I pet him. He’s extremely food motivated and when I tried to give him a piece of kibble, he wouldn’t take it. It’s definitely really strange behavior. If there’s no improvement tomorrow morning, I will absolutely take him to this vet as soon as possible. I just didn’t know if he needed to go to the emergency vet immediately.
