He started on his new food last weekend (chewy delivery was delayed due to weather). His blood test was Monday. I'm not sure if that would be time enough to have any effect on the numbers. He had a dental 6 months ago. She said his teeth look fine. Even if he needed one I don't know that I would...

Update time. Fawkes bilirubin numbers have come down to normal. His ALT (liver) has come down to 264 (was above 2000). Big improvement. I have however not been able to get any more than half his liver medicine in him for almost 5 days now. He fights me at every turn. The liquid makes him hyper...

So, I ordered SAMe from a compound pharmacy in liquid form. I thought it would be easier than pills. Today was his first dose of the liquid since we are out of the pills. The stuff must taste awful as soon as I gave it to him the slobber just came pouring out. I feel terrible. Also, its a...

Oh believe me I know the foods not great for him. He's on the pate. When Cassie was alive they were both on Weruva chicken in gravy. He stopped eating it after she died. Depression I think. Looking back I think her death is when all the digestion and constipation issues started. He was...

I'll definitely talk to the vet about IBD at our next appointment. He ate a full meal!! YAY!!! I feel like a failure though because I was only able to get half his dose of SAMe in him earlier. Hopefully we have better luck tomorrow. Now that the Cerenia from yesterday is out of his system he...

Oh gosh! So much information! I'll answer a few questions. Good news first. He's currently sitting here asking for food! YAY! I am familiar with Mirtazapine as our other cat that had cancer was on it. She had lost a ton of weight. She was a vocal girl, but man that stuff made her beyond...

@FeebysOwner I used to be a nurse so I know a bit about general gallbladder function. From my research though cats are a bit different since they different connections/pathways between the gallbladder, liver and intestines or so Dr Google tells me. That seems to be why metabolize medications...

Thanks for the responses! He seems to be ok today. No weird behavior or listlessness. I talked to the Vet this morning and she had me give him a dose of cerenia. She's thinking that he might be nauseous again. I think that stuff makes him sleepy. He definitely seems to be resting comfortably...

I'm wondering if anyone has experience with gallbladder and liver issues. This is will likely be a long story so please bear with me. Fawkes is 11 and had a bout of severe vomiting in August and we ended up at the emergency vet as the vomiting just would not stop. They weren't really able to...
