First - has the vet checked his mouth for sores?? Then see if your vet will prescribe Stanzolol 2mg once a day along with the Prednisone once a day. Try human baby food - chicken - mixed with the AD by syringe - Revival Animal Supply (on-line) has a food that is for baby kitties but you might want to try it as a supplement for Cole - called Breeders Edge - best I've ever used -
