Thanks for reaching out about your Siberian cat's unexplained anemia. It sounds concerning, so let's explore some possibilities and what you can do at home.
Anemia in cats can be caused by a variety of factors, such as blood loss, inadequate red blood cell production, or increased red blood cell destruction. Common culprits might include parasites, infections, nutritional deficiencies, or even chronic diseases. Less commonly, it could result from toxins, autoimmune conditions, or certain cancers.
At home, ensure your kitty is eating a balanced diet and staying hydrated. Offer small, frequent meals rich in protein to support her nutritional status. Monitor her energy levels, appetite, and any weight changes, noting any pale gums or rapid breathing.
Signs that warrant immediate attention include extreme lethargy, breathing difficulties, or noticeable collapse. These could suggest a more serious underlying issue requiring urgent care.
Given the complexity of anemia, a detailed veterinary evaluation is crucial. Blood tests and possibly imaging might be needed to identify the root cause. I highly recommend scheduling a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. They can delve deeper into your cat's symptoms and provide guidance tailored to her needs.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
