Amen to that. You are providing the most important things......love
and care. A lot is trial and error....sometimes painful error but
those from love are never wrong. They just happen. I learn from each
wonderful creature that choses to come into my life. Let your heart
be open and you will too. If you need to vent I too am open. I
listen pretty good.
A caution on the Pepcid that my vet gave me (I've used it successfully
with several friends): Make sure it is the original formula. I think
it is 4 mg but ask someone on the list (like Wendy) to be sure. Some
of the other versions can cause problems.

meant to be helpful can come out a little too strongly/passionately/
opinionated or like they're telling you what to do, but usually its
because those thoughts are backed by painful memories of loss/
lessons learned the hard way. You do what is comfortable for you
and General, and please don't feel pressured to do anything else.
Feel free to email me off list, or anyone else I would assume, that
you feel comfortable talking to if posting here makes you
uncomfortable.
I had some issues with my Julie not eating (she was not FeLV, but
CRF/hyperthyroid and 17-18 yrs. old). She responded very well to
Beechnut chicken and gravy baby food, as well as raw chicken boiled,
and the broth created from the boiled chicken. Also, deli meat
sometimes. And I gave her 1/4 Pepcid AC original formula sometimes;
that really helped settle her stomach and get her eating. She would
stop eating if her stomach was upset. Sub-Q fluids will also most
likely make General feel better. I learned from others on this site
and good websites how to do it and you would be surprised how easy
it is and how much better it makes sick kitties feel. I now keep
needles, tubing, and lactated ringers (fluids) on hand at all times
in case my kitties get sick.
Please ask if you need anything else!
:)
Wendy.

It's ok, I'm not going to give it to him anymore. Sorry guys, I
didn't mean
to create a fuss or this much discussion! I know I've done wrong
now. I won't
do it again.
