Epogen and injectable steroids may help but that takes time to kick in and you would probably have to give him a transfusion or two to buy enough time to see if that would help.

To get him to eat more, try making the liver shake. The recipe is in the

capsules that can be opened
I have heard, and would believe, that cats' stomach acid is so much
stronger that they do not get salmonella the way that humans do. Which would
make sense, since in the wild they eat meat raw all the time.
I know it is hard to digest liver. I don't know what to say about
that. I have
