Re: [Felvtalk] Kiss The Cat Prescriptions
So the vet prescribed Azithromycin, Clavamox, and Inteferon to start, with a Sub-Q Ringers Lactate with B-Vitamins added.Yesterday he ate despite having all those drugs, but he had a bad night last night (fainted and scared himself) and today he's being cranky. I was able to get his meds down him today, and feeding him in small meals whenever he will take them. I'm guessing getting through the first three days will be the toughest. Per the vet we'll see if he's responding well by then. So far it's been touch-and-go. Wish us luck!

That's exactly what the vet said. Just spoke to him, and his response was: better get the antibiotic to treat for them into the cat as soon as possible, rather than waiting on test results. I agreed with him.

I'm not a vet, but the HCT looks low, but I've had cats with it under 10. Has he been checked for Hemobartonella?

Kiss's results are so bad that I'm wondering if there's really anything the vet can do at this point. Blood tranfusion? T-cell? Erythropoietin for low blood cell count?
