    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Unfortunately it's the same hospital! In retrospective, I regret not letting the other hospital carry on his treatment. Maybe they wouldn't have done better, but it may be hard to have done worse. They will probably be on duty sooner or later, but that's terrifying! If he was to have any...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Problem is, it could be any of them on duty. Maybe I'm overreacting, but it feels like playing Russian roulette with your cat's health to be honest. I don't think I'm going to sleep well until all of the critical days have passed.

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    So it turns out I was right. He wasn't well and when they discharged him to me as a "bright and happy cat, not in pain, doesn't even need pain relief, doesn't need the imaging he was here for, who is eating well and likely to pass the object by himself" he was actually obstructed and in a good...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    They said he ate half of an Applaws pouch which I gave them, since I know he sort of likes those. Other than that, they feed Hill's, I honestly doubt he ate much of that at all, he doesn't even like it when he's feeling well. He's not eaten a couple of bites of Applaws and that's it. It's...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Sorry for the late update. I did call the vet, went for a consultation that day and they took him in for observation over night the next day and now he just came home. After the few droplets he did throw up bile once more, but since then, no more vomiting. They say he ate well while he was...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Update 2: moved his appointment to tomorrow morning, as he hadn't thrown up so far, but supposed to call them up if he vomits. Now he just motioned as if to vomit, but ultimately didn't. A few drops of bile or liquid came up, but no food. I'm not sure if this is good or bad? Reason to call the...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    He's kept down an egg yolk last night and I've just tried giving him some 'junkier' foods - he's not keen but he gave the Felix an okay little nibble and had a few pieces of kibble too. He's hungry and comes over when he hears food being prepared but he's just not that keen on what I've tried so...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Thank you everyone for your help and suggestions! I appreciate it! First, an update: I ended up going to the emergency vet, they did another checkup and an x ray. - he does have something still stuck in his stomach which isn't obstructive, but obviously is very likely what's causing the...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    Thank you, Jem. I don't own any tinsel, nor any Christmas decoration, strings etc in general. I initially had no clue where he could possibly have found any, turned the whole place upside down. It turns out it was a usually unloved toy that came home with him from the breeder, which we never...

    Help! Poorly Kitten Can't Keep Anything Down

    So, on Thursday my 8 month old kitten threw up for the first time, came up with a little hairball and two pieces of what I've now identified as a piece from a toy that I've since removed and thrown away. These pieces were soft. Friday he threw up twice, once coming up with another, larger...

    Cats Only Want Homemade Raw Now

    I realise this is a super late rely, but I am making my own raw food. He's eating that happily, since he seems to really like Felini.

    Thoughts On The Ziwipeak Reformulation (changed For Autumn 2018)?

    I recently noticed that Ziwipeak have changed their air dried formula from 98% meat to 96% - I emailed them about it and they say this is in response to changed US regulations from AAFCO, USfDA, FSMA and the difference is made up of vitamins, minerals and lecitin, which I think wasn't previously...

    Cats Only Want Homemade Raw Now

    Oh, my cat is the same. He refused commercial raw except for Purrform and NI venison. So I had to give a lot of it away after I ended up with lots of waste from uneaten food and gave up. Nothing worked, not adding treats, nor adding a topper, and mixing it with food he likes didn't work either...
