Thanks Belinda,
My vet gave me Pet-Tinic that he is getting twice a day. It seems similar to
Nutrived but I can ask about that one.
Not sure what his hematocrit is right now. They wanted to let him build up
more blood to do a large draw for a digestive panel but I'm kind of worried
about
PS. How long has he been on the Pet Tinic and how long has he been
getting the pred and doxy? When was the last time he had a blood draw?
On the last draw is that when his HCT was 29%? They can always take a
tiny bit of blood from the ear tip to check the HCT and if it is OK then
do the
Hi Amy,
Petinic doesn't contain folic acid which is also needed to build new
blood, Nutrived does ... most vets carry the Petinic and not the
Nutrived that is why they recommend it. If you can find the Nutrived I
would switch to it, I used to buy it online, I'll see if I can find
Hi Belinda,
I've been reading your posts about bloodwork, and I've learned a lot.
I have a CRF cat I will start on the Nutrived. Thank you for all the
valuable information.

I found a cat on my front porch about two weeks ago.
When I found him he looked very sick. He did not move nor open his eyes.
I took him to the vet and sadly he tested positive for the FeLV virus. He also
had a severe case of anemia and needed a blood transfusion quick.

He had a blood draw on July 2nd. We did hemobart, CBC, and a thyroid panel.
We started him on pred Thursday evening when we got the hemobart results and we
started him on doxy and Pet-Tinic yesterday. I'll check into getting Nutrived,
thanks! Good idea about the ear tip to check the HCT.
Oops, forgot to answer that yes his last draw was the HCT of 29%.

Amy,
If the HCT was 29% on the July 2nd draw and he is acting the same I
would wait at least 2 weeks, stress is not good so you want to avoid
that. If he takes a sudden turn for the worse before 2 weeks then get
him to the vet. When did the vet want you to bring him in for a
recheck? I

I was thinking of going back in a bit over 2 weeks when she returns from
vacation. There's another vet in the office but I would prefer to see my
regular vet unless we run into problems.

Two weeks is a minimum, longer is probably better as long as he
seems to be doing OK. Stress is a big no no with these guys, that was
one of the reasons I didn't really give Bailey any supplements until he
got sick, he got so stressed when he had to take anything, pills ect ...
