I lost another cat on the 4th of this month. Same way. He wouldn't eat and just drank a little water. I took him for IV and antibiotics for two days but the third he passed away before they had the time to get some blood for tests. Both the vet and I cannot get what the matter is. Both my...
I am so glad your Stinky is doing well. Unfortunately I lost another cat just today. He had the same symptoms as my Benji last year. Sammy was 14 years old and was so strong he would go up and down the stairs in a second. Three days ago he stopped eating and fell on his side. I took him to...
Yes, I know. Mine wouldn't even purr when I touched him which was so unlike him, as he was the most affectionate cat I had. He would leave his food and come to me to caress him, and then it was such a sudden downfall. He would do nothing just go here and there as if he was looking for a place...
Oh you are such a good soul taking such care of Stinky. I know how you must feel. I went through that last year about this time with my poor baby. At least yours is eating something mine would only take what I syringe fed him.
One of my other cats likes canned food diluted in water. I press...
I am so sorry about your baby. However, if he still has an appetite and is lively then I would cherish that. Most cats lose appetite and a lot of weight if they are not well. Mine lost half his weight for no apparent reason although he had all sorts of blood tests and ultrasound. I had to...
Sweetheart I am so sorry for your loss. Remember I went through that with my Benji in June so I know exactly how you feel. Now my 11-year old yorkie is sick. Cannot walk properly so I fear I am going for another loss. Vets can do nothing again. Unfortunately no matter how much we try to provide...
I am so sorry about Sammy. I have a Sammy too you know. He is 13 years old now. I don't know what the blood tests could show. They will definitely find about the liver and kidneys. I know that because that is what my vet checked for Benji first. Along with the simple blood tests which show...
If your cat seems fine go with that. Continue the meds or whatever you are doing, as apparently it works. Having an appetite is perfect, the opposite is terrible. Ask me who I had to syringe feed. Keep your baby on your lap and sleep with her and enjoy her love and company. She feels that.
Benji also had this awful thing with eating anything. We had him operated on twice because he had a part of a silicon ball in his bowel the first time and the second a plastic lid from something. Both operations went ok but he was 2 years old and 4 then. How is your cat doing now that he has...
I really don't know what to advise you. It seems you have done everything. I know how it feels doing that and not seeing results. However, you have to be patient and give it a little time which is hard I know especially when you see your baby not improving the way you want to. Just give it a...
I completely understand how you feel. I am very sorry for your loss. I myself tried to keep Benji alive for 36 days and I think the last two days he was in pain too. He couldn't walk properly, he seemed like lost. Especially his last night he would go here and there trying to find somewhere...
Two of my cats have lost this tooth and there is no problem. One of them I actually saw taking it out. The other one had it out just like you say and after some days I found it on the floor. Call them back or call somebody else. This is an emergency. Your cat is in pain I think and he...

How very clever and thoughtful. You must love your cats dearly. I had to wake up twice during the night when my Benji was sick. Unfortunately nothing like this would work as I had to syringe feed him. To tell the truth I would only do that for my kids or my cats. I love them...
If you cannot take him to a vet and discuss your financial situation and have the vet see you pro-bono, then it would be better put him to sleep. Whatever you do don't let this poor kitty be in pain for more. He obviously has no quality of life. If I were you I would definitely take him to...
You are so very welcome. I wish I could suggest something to help but I can't. All I can do is pray for you. I am kind of relieved though that she is enjoying life. No one knows how long they will live or how long we will live to be with them. All is so unpredictable whether you have a...
Exactly my thought. That was my thought right before I read this post.
I know about money. I spend hundreds of euros changing from one food to another, buying cat wipes because he wouldn't groom himself buying this prescription can food which cost five times the normal can food a.s.o. but what...
