Can you give him snacks in between feeding...perhaps when you are
having alone time with him? Id suggest tidbits like crockpot chicken
(a favorite of Copper and Thomas) or perhaps some hamburger. They
have to have animal fat.

It's been a bit more than a month since Grrr was diagnosed, and I'm
happy to report that he is acting like his old self- his energy
level is impressive, he's not displaying any neuro issues, and is
getting around MUCH better. We've been giving him DMG liquid on his
food- don't know if it's helping, but it sure isn't hurting! My
biggest concern right now is his weight- I think he's actually lost
a bit more, and he is borderline emaciated at this point. He
doesn't need to be fat, but I've got to get some meat back on him.
We've been feeding all three wellness dry daily, with canned on top
about 3x a week. Would switching to canned exclusively put weight
on him? How about switching to core dry? I'm not sure how to get
weight on him without pumping up my other two like stay-puft
marshmallow kitties- they're already a bit on the rotund side, and
we don't really have a way to separate them for feeding. They tend
to leave each other's bowls alone so long as everyone gets basically
the same thing. Any ideas? Amy
