Dear Kevin and Renee,
I don't know how you'll know when its time, but I
believe you will. And please believe that Taz knows
you are doing all you can for him. Its obvious from
what you write how much you love him, and I'm sure it
has always been obvious to him from the care and
attention that you give him.
As for the nausea....sometimes my kitty Smooch
couldn't hold down a thing, and nothing seemed to
stimulate his appetite. But somebody suggested I try
some mint tea. It settled his stomach really well, and
he seemed to like drinking it. Made it just like I was
making a cup of tea for myself, with sugar and
everything, let it cool for a little while, and then
gave it to him out of a medicine dropper.
It helped him enough that he felt like eating a little
bit again. The brand I use is Stash, which contains
only peppemint leaves. Hope this helps a little. Wish
I could help more. Hang in there!
Hugs,
Anita
