Nina,
Yes I did and I think the appetite stimulant is helping alot. He is
suppose to get it today but I think I'll skip it and see how he does.
It won't hurt to not give it, it isn't the kind that needs to build up,
it worked within twenty minutes, maybe less the very first time he got
He's a miracle boy all right! Wonderful news. Sending you two power
energy to continue to work those miracles. Thanks for the inspiration.
Ain't it amazing what love and care can do?? Did you mention to Fred
that he had to gain weight or you'd be forced to put the tube in again?
I'm so pl
I second that! Way to go Fred! So happy to hear this
information Belinda.

Also worth considering... if you took him to an animal shelter to get his shots
is
the fact that he could have caught some contagious virus while at the shelter.
It
would be worth calling the shelter to inquire as to if they have any currently

thanks, nina, for pointing out this very VITAL point. we are NOT vets, and
all we can offer are opinions, suggestions on what has worked for us, and
what our vets have recommended for our cats, based upon their specific

I totally agree with Nina on this seek your Vet's opinion and options on
this.
I have very good luck using "Cyproheptadine" as well on kitties that weren't
not eating.

Mary,
There have been concerns raised with the use of valium for kitties.
I've used the appetite stimulant Cyproheptadine made into a transdermal
gel to be applied to the inside tip of a cat's ear. It's much less

it. I s

Yes, it is crucial that you get kitty to eat, even if it means
syringe-feeding. Many people feel that when they stop eating on their own it

What were you feeding him? If it was commercial dry, try something like
Innova Evo dry (very flavorful, lots of meat used - even at his very sickest,
my Slinky was still eating his Evo) or
We always used Nutri-Cal, a hi-calorie gel & FelaVite, also a gel...
Also, baby food [meat] can also help.
There also is a med. that can induce the eating, but, forgive me, memory's
semi-gone when it comes to certain [impt.] things
Best wishes,
Hugs,
Patti & her gang
