B12, pancreas, thyroid were all checked by the IM a few weeks ago. I don’t think any of that is this. The fever will likely go down as unknown origin. Any voice raspiness from her I expect is from dehydration rather than irritation. She had plenty of voice the other day. I’m going to try watered down A/D to see if she’ll slurp it up like soup for both nutrients and hydration. Watering it down would also help appease my fear of getting her hooked on the pure stuff and having nowhere to go if she gets fussier. I always want to use just the minimum amount of kitty crack for the shortest time just to bridge from the exceptional back to something more normal.Forgive me for asking again,...but can you ask the Vet to also check Betty's B12 levels, pancreas, and thyroid levels,...just in case...as not sure if this is normally done in routine blood work?
Could her throat/esophagus be inflamed from the anesthetic and endoscopic procedure?
And could you ask the Vet if there is anything for this, to soothe her throat?
I came across this "Hydra Care" supplement, and something like this may be beneficial.
PURINA PRO PLAN VETERINARY DIETS Hydra Care Liver Flavored Liquid Supplement for Cats, 3-oz pouch, case of 12 - Chewy.com
Although it does contain 'guar gum'...so not really sure how good it is, and if something like unflavoured pedialyte would be better.
Sending Mega Health Vibes to your Betty...for a speedy recovery.
(ps. definitely ask for the mirtazapine pills, versus gel...to give her ears a rest)
