Sounds weird...they dont know anything else? Sounds like Mange or some kind or skin parasite but that wouldnt make sense for why they want to operate.

i was thinking they same thing. i mean an operation can cost alot, what else do they know? i have had a few cats in my lifetime, and it just sounds kind of odd. sometimes hair loss is associated with something else, what else is the vet telling you? good luck with everything, and as someone said before it is good that you are taking care of your pet. i just went thru a big thing with my cat, so i understand. cats rock!

My cat may be goin under the knife tomorrow
K...I was a little misinformed yesterday. They won't actually operate on him immediately, but he will be put to sleep and they will run different scans on him (biopsys), etc. and if necessary they will operate. My mom didn't clearly explain to me what's going on.
Anyways, I'm at school now, waiting to write my next 2 exams and my mom is taking him to the vet, or is already there.
*sigh*
ps. they also took urinal tests yesterday and nothing abnormal came up on those...so neither blood tests or urinals show anything serious.

ya ya, same difference not permanent sleep
anyways, he's back home now. I still have to get all the details but from what my mom told me over the phone, his immune system is what caused all this. The system started defending itself against his own body. It's permanent too, so he's gonna have to be taking steroids for the remainder of his life to help keep him stable (and its not garanteed to work). And antibiotics for 2 weeks.
He's doing a little better now though. Looks like he has some of his energy back.
Requiem: sorry to hear about your cat

my cat was attacked by dogs and killed last october
He was old though... still boils my blood... those dogs better think twice if they come on my property again.
I can totally feel what you're saying...just the thought of a dog attacking my cat gets my blood boiling. I love dogs too, but if any of them would mess with my cat I'd make sure they never look at a cat again.
