I've used Zantac, btw, I think 1/4 tablet.

Just to clarify the information regarding Pepcid. Only use the
Original Strength Pepcid AC or famotidine, the generic version. For
most kitties 2.5 mg every other day is the recommended starting
point. Some kitties need up to 5 mg per day. A lot depends on what
other health issues a cat has and the wt. of the cat.

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.

You haven't done anything wrong! You are learning and there's
nothing at all wrong with that! Thank God you want to help General,
and are
seeking out information to do so! Sometimes posts that are 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.
