It has been 10 years since I fixed it for Mai Mai. I got beef
liver, lightly cooked it the grinded it up. I froze it in muffin
pans so I fixed quite a bit at a time. I am vegetarian so I tried
to do a week or so supply. They are saying that liquids are better
for absorption than pills if you can find some pet tinic. That is
what we tried on Dixie. If you can't get it easily, www.amazon.com
has it very reasonably. Mai Mai was a wonderful dog so she ate a
lot more than a little cat. She was also very terminal so she
pretty well got what she wanted.
One of the holistic vets here recommended raw beef or buffalo/bison,
preferably organic. Apparently the bison are raised with fewer drugs.
Just a thought....you might grind some liver raw for him. Literally
to a soup. It couldn't do harm that I can see. I fed Dixie Primal
Raw and believe in a raw diet. If he eats it fine if not then try
to cook some.
Remember that the antibiotics may make him tired but do not
attribute it all to that. Keep a very close watch on his gums.
Good luck.

I was so sorry to hear about your Dixie. When I first started on
this list I remember you saying how special she was to you. It must
have been so awful to lose her! Every time we lose one of our
friends it’s like they take a piece of us with them. I just lost
my Tucker on May 31 and it still hurts so much.
How did you fix the liver? Was it chicken liver or beef liver? I
have Pet-Tabs vitamins that I have been mixing in with tuna and
feeding him for the last couple of days. They say there is 5.0 mg
of iron in each tablet.
For the last couple of days it has seemed like Buzz has been just
too tired to purr. On the deck tonight I was giving him a Reiki
treatment and he started purring and kept it up for a while. He
was rubbing his head against my hands like he was really enjoying
it. I am going to take that as a good sign.
