probably not without a biopsy, but im definitely going to ask about it.
i do feed canned, but she wont eat enough of it alone to not start losing weight, even when she was at her healthiest. she's just not that excited by wet food, she genuinely likes her dry food. my other cat doesn't eat dry...
hi all, sorry for disappearing and not responding to comments. last month after kiki started pred, she improved a lot. her eating was much better and she gained a tiny tiny tiny bit of weight back. i stopped coming on here cuz, to be completely honest, i was really hoping that would be the end...
hi, thanks for the reply. the vet also prescribed kiki prednisolone, she said it would help whether it was ibd or lymphoma. i will continue to give her this long term, assuming she does well on it in the coming weeks.
dis the chlorambucil seem to be the deciding factor in her continuing to do...
that's interesting.....i will ask the vet when they call next week if she saw anything else that made her think lymphoma. i'm not gonna lie, i was kind of startled so probably wasn't asking the best or most thoughtful questions in the moment. i think seeing how a diet change does might be my...
kiki's age isnt actually known for sure. i got her from the pound, who estimated 4 years. however, they literally got her off the street while she was pregnant, so she could be any age really.
i know her pancreas looked good, her bloodwork was completely normal, but i just didn't think to ask...
hello all,
today i took my cat kiki in to get seen for an uptick in vomiting over the last couple weeks. vet did basic bloodwork and an ultrasound, and sent out blood for another test that i forget the name of at this moment. she said it would help see if kiki is not able to absorb any...
does your cat have urinary issues? my roommates boy cat had some sort of flare up and was straining to pee, but had no blockage. the vet also saw no bacteria, just "a couple" struvite crystals. they said he has to stay on hills prescription diet from now on, which is unfortunate because we...
@Alldara kiki loves iams perfect portions as well! she seems to like the single-serve texture, so she eats sheba and nutro cuts in gravy too. she just gets bored easily, so its good to have different brands and tastes. im going to try the purina urinary, the pictures look promising.
@lisahe I...
thanks for the suggestions! ive seen dr elseys suggested a few times so i think ill check it out. shes currently eating purina pro plan kitten- my vet reccomended the brand and i got the kitten version because i have a kitten as well. unfortunately, if i water it down kiki will turn her nose up...
my cat Kiki is extremely picky and strongly prefers dry food. ive narrowed down a few brands of wet that she will accept (purina pro plan, sheba, iams, nutro, all cuts in gravy), but even those she will start to reject or not finish. she doesn't eat big meals and wet food is so low calorie that...
a few bites, but not more than that. shes difficult when it comes to food. i'll still try it, and ive been giving her delectables bisque treats since theyre basically pure liquid. hopefully a bit more time will get things moving, im just extremely paranoid about my kitties
to add, i really doubt she's going to eat the pumpkin. shes extraordinarily picky and has refused it in the past when i got some for my roommates boy cat
she strongly prefers dry food and would eat about 130cals of that and 50-60cals of wet. shes on wet food only restriction for the next couple weeks tho, and has managed to get 140-180cals per day. so i guess she is eating less. she did not come home with any pain meds, but got a very strong...
my female cat (4yrs) got a broken fang removed on thursday, may 11. the vet told me it is normal for her to not have a bowel movement for a couple days due to the anesthesia and pain medications she was on. she had one bowel movement on saturday, may 13. it was quite large and wet but still...
