one of my girls, Mav, recently got diagnosed with EYP. The vet removed as much fluid as he could and put her on an antibiotic.
I caught it early - only a swollen abdomen, no respiratory issues - but have been told that most don’t ever recover.
We’ll be going to another vet who will give another evaluation & talk about possible surgery.
Is there anything I can do to help manage symptoms? She’s been acting fine, if a bit physically slow, but her abdomen is pretty darn swollen (not dragging on ground) and she has a minor cough.
Would warm soaks in the tub help at all?
If anyone has any advice, please let me know.
I have many hard decisions ahead and I just want her to be comfortable even if it means I lose one of my babies.
