I might try nutrical, ad food, or even kitten formula to get more nutrition crammed into the smaller feedings.

A lot of vets may carry it, too if you see one close. I am going to get
one for Ginger at the vet today.

That will be a great idea if she can.
Do you give Cricket fluid at all by the way..?

Yes, they do most of the big Pet stores carry it. If not go to the Vet's office or hospital when you pick up the other meds (appetite stimulate) and get it. Now they do carry it.

Do you think your mom might consider coming to stay at your house while
you're gone? I know what you mean about not wanting to ask for help,
but this isn't for you, it's for Cricket. It would be better for the
puppy and Pepper too!
I think I got my Nutrical online, but I could have sworn I s
consider staying with him.

Hey Nina,
Yes, my mom LOVES cats. She's feeding a group of
ferals as we speak. I think I will call her and ask
if she can come by on Saturday anyway to sit with
Cricket. I bet she will if I'm very nice. I just
hate to ask for help. I don't want to take Cricket
over there because he is happy a

Dear Nina,
Thank you for all the suggestions. I wrote them all
down and will do my best before we leave to try some
of them.
There are products to give to kitties that aren't eating, Nutrical is
one of them. They have vitamins and corn syrup, (for energy). Some
kitties like the taste and will eat it off your finger, or a plate. Ask
at your local Petsmart for things that might help. I don't know what
flavor they u

Also, Cricket does like the 8in1 VitaKitty (something
like that) vitamin supplement. He is eating a little
bit of that at a time off my finger, but because it
has vitamin E, it's probably like eating peanut butter
to him. I wish I knew what flavor it was so I could
try to replicate it in what I a

Actually, I have seen Pred have a side effect of stimulating appetite.
It might just be that they feel better and because of that want to eat
more, but I've heard of it from others too.

I have found by giving both that it helps. Your Vet should be to give that to you. They do carry it in most animal hospital and clinics. Since you have taken the kitty in to see them you can go pick it up. Tell them it's urgent Cricket needs to eat. They do develop a fatty liver.

Well, around here it isn't expensive.

Yes, it could. I've had Cypro prescribed at the same time as Pred, so
I'm assuming the vet thought it might help too. The main thing is to get
them eating and to make sure they don't go completely without food. If
they go without food for more than a 24 to 48 hour period, there is a
danger of

hours, he may do that even with you home to assist-feed him). His
