Katherine, he may be slightly anemic? Have you ever used Pet-tinic? It is a liquid vitamin. Vets used to carry it. I got mine at a good price from Amazon. It's cheap. I think it is has iron in it. and it works for my FEV+ kitty who every now an then has pale gums. Carolyn On Tue, Oct 29, 201

Thanks everyone. Terence's PCV is around 13%. Temperature yesterday was 102.9. He got a shot of Convenia and we started the lixotinic. Gums looking slightly pinker today. I'm waiting to hear if his red blood cells look like they are regenerative or non regenerative. On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 9:32 P

Yes, eating litter, licking things is Pica & indicates severe anemia. Cats can be very sick & still act normal. Most of my FeLV cats have died from anemia. Get him to the vet ASAP. Sorry you are having to go through this. Beth "Katherine K." wrote: >Thanks. After doing few searches on the lis

Hi, Pet-tinic is a liquid supplement rich in iron, copper and Vitamins B12, B6 and Thiamine, among other vitamins. The belief is that this supplement will help the animal produce more RBCs. There is also a product called Liqui-Tinic which offers similar vitamins and minerals. It does, however,

Hello Katherine, I definitely have to back Heather here. Pale gums and eating litter are very indicative of anemia. Earlier this year, our sweet girl Polli, started licking walls and clay planters. She slowly lost interest in her toys and food. By the time I took her to the vet, she was severe

Yes, definitely. I would get him in asap (today). This is a worry with any kitty and especially felv+ kitties. Last time someone told me their cat was eating litter, he died soon after even though they got him to the vet (probably needed a transfusion which I don't think they tried). Again not

Pale gums can indicate anemia, if gums are white they are usually near death. I'd get the kitty's PCV (packed cell volume) checked asap. FELV+ cats are particularly prone to anemia, I don't have any FELV+ cats and think sometimes it is non-regenerative but some here might have some advice. Not t

Just saw Avaykn's email as I was writing this. I have the opposite problem - pale gums. One of my positive kittens Terence has started looking/feeling a little skinny and his usually short sleek fur has a more raggedy look to it. I checked his gums this morning and they were pale compared to his 3
