Hello,
I've been a member here for awhile now (I've posted my original intro below),
but haven't really participated. My cat, McFluffins, hasn't really appeared to
be ill at all and I am not knowledgeable enough on the topic to have anything
to share. I was actually hoping to not have
Nortina,
My heart goes out to you. This is very possibly a manifestation of the
disease. If you've been following this group you know what the results can
be and that there isn't any 100% effective treatment out there. There's a
lot of ideas in my head so I'm going to try to be as exact as I
Nortina,
There are many charities out there that can assist with vet bills.
With the economy being what it is, donations have gone down, but they
may be able to help you fund treatment to keep McFluffins comfortable.
Here is a link I used when my Kong first became ill to see what was
out
I do know about the expenses! My cat is at $30,000.00, but well worth
it!

Amy, I don't know what to tell you. The only suggestion I have is to try
and increase his daily caloric intake to see if that helps him gain wt. So
may things can affect wt. including thyroid issues. I know
He has been tested for hyperthyroid but not pancreatitis.
Amy
Has he been tested for pancreatitis?
Hyperthyroid?
Those are two conditions that result in weight loss. That
is what we tested
for.

Hi Amy,
A regular T4 thyroid test sometimes won't give a high reading until it
gets fairly high. Fred always tested normal but my vet could feel a
small nodule on his thyroid and we kept an eye on it. When he went in

Thanks for the ideas. Since I just bought some baby food for my other cat,
I will definitely try adding stuff like that for calories. He really seems
to eat fine so I'm stumped why he keeps losing weight :(

Generally several small meal per day are best but you are already doing that.
