I'm sorry what? Did you miss the part about FOUR vet visits for FOUR days in a row and that they aren't sure yet what is wrong?

Yes we finally got some deposits in the litterbox early this morning!!

Sure! Here he is resting. He just drank some more water and has eaten a 1/4 cup of his sensitive stomach kibble and about 1/2 small can of wet so far today, so he is doing a lot better!

Last night I put the Fruitables broth on some of his dry kibble and he liked it. Shortly after that I saw him drinking actual water :hyper::hyper::hyper: Today he has been under the bed quite a bit - he probably only feels comfortable sleeping there since he has had so many trips to the vet :(...

I'd like to share my experience with cranberries. I switched my cat from Blue Wilderness because the vet hated it, but my cat did great on it. He suggested CORE from Wellness and around the time I switched, he began over-grooming his lower belly. I had also just moved, so we assumed it had to be...

Yah he might have been ok on grain free if I hadn't switched things up :( But yeah, most of my family that has cats, they have lived to be at least 12-14 and they have been fed the cheapest grain cat foods. I am pretty sure when I originally switched from blue wilderness to CORE, I did...

The vet thinks that considering his history, we should put him on Purina Pro Plan FOCUS Sensitive Skin & Stomach. I never wanted to feed grains, but at this point with what a mess I have made of things :(, I am going to try this and see how he does

I forgot to mention, I started the pumpkin when he had a few hairballs and it did a great job on that. I must have gotten lucky with the food combination I used to feed, but that pumpkin made it worse with these foods :(

I did ask if I should do those injections, and he asked me if I had the stuff for it and I said no, but I could get it - wouldn't I get it from the vet? I am going to talk to him tomorrow because I don't want to go back to that ER. He has been eating a little more, I am just concerned that he...

Barry ate quite a bit more today :) He is still pretty tired, but is now asking for food too. @laura mae I am pretty sure I have figured out what went wrong here finally. I had no idea you weren’t supposed to switch their food without doing it very carefully. Petco had a free bag of their new...

Yah I know feral cats don't have grain in their diet, but they don't have kibble either. Maybe the grain is necessary to process the hardened kibble better? idk. the vet doesn't think it was the grain-free necessarily, but rather the food change, but he doesn't want me to use that brand anymore...

I am not gonna lie - it was the best sound I've ever heard. I went home from lunch to make him new food, but he was under the bed since I'm sure he thought he was going to the vet after 4 days in a row. I don't think he ate anymore, but the vet said he was very happy he at least ate some and...

Oh I forgot to mention he is 6 years old with no health issues other than overgrooming. Nothing else is showing up on the xrays after the enema and his blood panel was still good as of yesterday. he was treated with anti-nausea, a steroid and pain meds. But this means he has not eaten since...

Thanks everyone - this board has helped more than you know. He was never constipated before, and I took him in the day he stopped eating and he was incredibly constipated, but had still been having daily stools. He had started not finishing his food tho and that must have been because he was...

Yah I heard him get up in the middle of the night and crunch 5 times, so I know he ate at least 5 pieces of kibble. Maybe ate some wet. He was getting up and down from the bed quite a few times and seemed restless, but every time he does that he gets petted before he cuddles (was purring pretty...

Yah apparently he doesn't have fatty liver yet since they did blood tests again today. My regular vet gave him x-rays again today and sent them to a radiologist who didn't see anything either. He was eating last Thursday but I am not sure how much he ate on Friday. I noticed him not eating on...

Hello all, I am going through a very difficult situation now with my cat who has quit eating after an enema for constipation. He has no health issues that they are able to find and the opinion is his stomach is very upset from the constipation and the traumas of 4 vet visits in 4 days and...

Yah the steroid is the least of my concerns at this point :( I tried all the different foods tonite and no luck. The vet was not happy that he had been given anesthesia 2 nites in a row and I think he does need to lay low and not be bothered all the time especially for such an anxious kitty...

This actually may have been caused by high protein, no grain :( I switched to Dr. Easley's recently, but I always fed him the highest protein and no grain that I could find. I did try putting some food on his lip and he licked it off, but it didn't help :( The vet now thinks that he has very bad...

My cat Barry quit eating on Friday, so I took him to the emergency room on Saturday and they said his blood work was all great, but he was severely constipated. They said he had been through the ringer and all I could think was he is going to be starving when he gets home. Nope. He didn't eat...
