Cat with fever of unknown origin x 6 days, multiple vets seen, no answers

Hello there,

I'm sorry to hear that your kitty has been feeling under the weather. I understand how worrisome it can be when you don’t have a clear answer, especially after seeing multiple vets. A fever of unknown origin (FUO) can be tricky. It generally means there’s an underlying issue that hasn't been pinpointed yet.

Potential causes could include infections (bacterial, viral, or fungal), immune-mediated diseases, or less commonly, certain types of cancer. Since these can vary widely, it often requires a comprehensive approach involving diagnostic tests like blood work or imaging studies.

At home, ensure that your cat is hydrated and comfortable. Encourage them to drink by offering fresh water or a bit of broth. You can also try gently wiping them down with a damp cloth to help manage their body temperature.

Watch for signs like lethargy, loss of appetite, vomiting, or difficulty breathing, which could indicate a more serious issue needing immediate attention.

Since you've already consulted several vets without a clear answer, consider booking a video consult with Dial A Vet. Sometimes a fresh perspective or a second look at the medical records can make a difference. We're here to support you and your furry friend.

Take care!
