In the 33rd episode of Vets Saving Pets season 1, titled "Cat Splash Fever," viewers are taken on a journey to meet a 7-year-old cat named Tigger who is suffering from a mysterious illness. Tigger's owner, Karen, brought her in frantically when she noticed that Tigger wasn't her usual self. The energetic and playful cat seemed lethargic and was not eating or drinking. Karen was very concerned and feared that her beloved pet was seriously ill.
Dr. Jeff Werber, an experienced veterinarian, runs a full check-up on Tigger to determine the root cause of her illness. Upon examination, Dr. Jeff finds that Tigger has a high fever and her abdomen is tender to the touch. Using his expertise and advanced diagnostic tools, Dr. Jeff works tirelessly to figure out what is going on with Tigger.
As they run several tests on Tigger, Dr. Jeff and his team notice something unusual in her urine sample. They detect a bacterial infection that is causing her high fever. Dr. Jeff immediately starts Tigger on a course of antibiotics to fight the infection. However, Tigger's condition quickly deteriorates, and her fever spikes again despite her medications.
Dr. Jeff is worried that there might be an underlying issue that could be hindering Tigger's recovery. He decides to run more tests to see whether Tigger's kidneys are affected, which may be causing the high fever. The team carefully monitors Tigger's blood work and run other diagnostic tests to pinpoint the root cause of her sickness.
Meanwhile, Karen is very worried about Tigger's health and is doing all that she can to support her cat. She is always inquiring about Tigger's condition and spends long hours at the hospital, providing the feline with care and comfort. However, Tigger's temperature keeps rising, and her condition is getting worse.
As Dr. Jeff and his team struggle to find a solution, they discover a possible cause. Tigger mysteriously fell in their swimming pool some days ago, leading them to believe that she might have contracted an infection from the pool water. They conclude that Tigger has Cat Splash Fever, a rare but serious illness caused by exposure to bacteria in bodies of water.
With this new information, Dr. Jeff consults with his colleagues for the appropriate treatment plan. They decide to continue with the antibiotics, but they also administer additional medication to manage Tigger's fever. Dr. Jeff explains that while Cat Splash Fever isn't usually fatal, it can cause serious complications, especially if left untreated.
After a few days of intensive treatment, monitoring, and care, Tigger finally shows signs of improvement. Her fever subsides, and she begins to eat and drink normally again. Karen is overjoyed to see her cat finally turning the corner and getting better. The team is delighted with the outcome and credits Tigger's swift recovery to the quick work of Dr. Jeff and the early diagnosis.
In the end, viewers leave with a renewed appreciation for the dedication and hard work of veterinary professionals. They also learn about the dangers of cat splash fever and the importance of keeping pets safe from harmful bacteria. It is a heartwarming and inspiring episode that highlights the critical role that veterinarians play in caring for our beloved pets.
