There are two parts to this, getting the syringe in there and getting the drugs into the cat. Find out if the cat is less bothered having the syringe in one side opposed to the other. My cat hated the syringe in the left side of his mouth but could tolerate it on the right. You can also practice...

I have an IBD cat and do B12 shots at home, you can also buy this from the pharmacy as well as it is the same as used in humans. If you can give your cat a sub-q then you can do B12 shots. My guy is IBD and is anemic and his B12 levels tank after about 2 months so he gets a monthly injection...

What also may work is putting water into the hard food to soften it up like you would with kittens. It has the same taste as the food he is used to but is soft which may help the transition or if he will eat it wet then you have won in any case. Their urine output and stools also give you a good...

My guy won't drink water but he does eat wet food so I just put in about 3cc of water in each feeding. He is an IBD cat so he gets multiple feedings a day and each one has some water and it keeps him just above dehydration according blood tests. Before this I used a syringe and slowly squirted...

Good catch, I missed that and carrageenan is one of the do not feed so he won't be eating that. It is on the IBDKItties site so there are some cats that do well on it. Food is a hard one and I have tried a lot of foods to find one that he will eat when he is not feeling well which is hard. He...

You are correct, it is actually Natural Balance venison and green pea.

All of the food was in the other thread, it is all moist and all of it was from recommendations from the IBDKitties site. When I started the last thread he was fine other than his stools were very loose but he was eating fine and had not thrown up for a month. I have gone though more than 50...

He is booked for Thursday for the biopsy and the results should be in by hopefully Monday and then we can treat him. Because he doesn't drink water and is not eating much he will be getting a daily sub-q. Tonight will be day 4 of Cerenia so I will also check with the vet to see if I should skip...

He got Pepsin in the form of Famotidine last night and he has had it before and it typically doesn't seem to do much for him. He went and had an ultrasound done today but it hasn't really cleared anything up, he either has cancer or IBD. I got him from the pound and it was stated he had IBD and...

I have a 3.5 year old male cat who I got from the SPCA with what was claimed to be IBD just about a year ago and he has recorded issues going back about a year before this. He has been doing fairly well all things considered and has had a few flare ups but has seemed to be doing well for the...

Fatboy left a very poor stool today but he did eat a little in the afternoon and it stayed down so that is a good sign. He has an appointment for an ultrasound tomorrow morning which will hopefully give a better idea of what is up in his insides. They didn't want to try any drugs like pred...

He took the Tylson until yesterday and then I stopped giving it to him because he has been on it since the 16th of January and has not helped. He will be losing weight because he has not eaten for two days now but he had a sub-q today so this will help with dehydration. He left a messy stool not...

My friends cat was only on it for about a month or so before the end came so it was a pretty quick decline. When you break the marijuana down it does not make hash but instead it makes a very stick residue of oil and whatever was extracted from the plant matter. Because it is hard to administer...

Just an update on Fatboy, his stool has slowly been getting better and he left a really good one on Saturday. I gave him some pumpkin every day since late last week into early this week and I also found some food that he would eat that does not have a common protein. I found he will eat the...

There are many mammals that don't get 'high' from marijuana but they still get everything else that it can offer. I never did try it with my old cat but at times I wish I had. My buddy had a cat that was pushed on him and it turned out the cat was littered with cancer. It wasn't too bad at first...
