Question

My cat is suffering from flu we cant take him to the doctor ..?

Answer 1

suffering?

you cant let him suffer, most vets can set up payment plans, or you can give to a shelter.

you cant just let him suffer.

Answer 2

You can and will take the cat to the vet. Anything else is utterly irresponsible. Sorry to be blunt but that's the way it is.

Answer 3

how do you even know it's the flu?

edit: Will you people stop telling others to abandon their animals? Seiously, you might as well tell hem to put it to sleep because thats what will eventually happen at the shelter! Advise them on how to solve the situation.

Anyway, call around. Someone maybe able to put you in the diferaction of a low cost vet. I alled a shelter and they told me a vet that dose exams for $17 :)

Answer 4

     Well...I'm pretty sure that your cat isn't 'suffering' !  He's just come down with a 24 hour flu, or else...simply, heat stroke.  After all this is Summertime, and our poor Feline Friends are stuck wearing their fur coats throughout the entire season...and it's up to you to help make him more comfortable living day to day with the summer's heat.  

     Remember that most cats are a lot like 'lil kids, when they get sick...and they'll need extra attention from Mom or Dad, and a fresh water bowl.  Try talking softly to him and gently rubbing his tummy this is a good way to let him know, that you know he's sick. ( Not everyone needs a doctor everytime they get sick . . . so try not to worry, he's gonna be fine ! !)

Answer 5

And your question is what?  What can you do to help him?  NOTHING.  He probably doesn't have the "flu" unless you're talking about FIV.  He probably has an Upper Respiratory Infection and that's not going to go away without a course of antibiotics.  So get him to the vet before he gets any sicker.

Truly can't afford a vet?  Then surrender this cat to a shelter so that someone with the means to care for him properly can adopt him.  Pet ownership is a RESPONSIBILITY not a right.

Answer 6

always think of your pet as a family member , if you get sick will you ask about what medication you could use or at least call the doctor?

whenever I go to the vet and tell him :"two days back I noticed.." (he goes like TWO DAYS !! if it was you , you would rush to the Doctor) ehim!

any ways please do I know that you love your cat and worried about her.

Cold or Flu you have to take her to the vet , to check her Temp, give her an antibiotic , and antinflammatoryry injections , maybe will give you some to use at home.

when the cat have cold, they don't eat , it is not that they lost theirappetitee, but because they can not eact what they can not smell .

you could use Sodiumchloridee 9% solution found in infant's nose drops, or any saline solution 9%, this should clear the nose (if blocked).

The Vet is the best answer
