    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Update: Aprikos is better, her life is somehow back to normal. All the tests are good and her mood also. The only problem is that she still vomit grass and fur almost every night :( it's a lot of cleaning in the morning. We never had this problem before she got sick. We brush her regularly and...

    Is "good dry food" better than "low quality wet food" in a diet?

    Hei there! what is your take on this argument? i feed my cats 3 times per day, two wet and one dry (or one wet and two dry depending on the day :) ) Is it better to feed a cat with a good quality dry food (Acana and so on) or would it be better to feed them only with wet food? although not...

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Apri is better! she has increased her food intake steadily, today she looks good, she even started cleaning herself yesterday. We are meeting the vet on Friday, she has already mentioned the possibility to continue with Baytril, as it takes a long time to heal from a kidney infection. We have...

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Apri hasn't lost weight, she has also started eating something. We continue this week with the medications, but at some point we'll have to stop and see if she manages without them. We were positive as she seems a bit better lately, however, the vet said few times that she cannot promise...

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Apri has eaten something today, we are meeting the vet on Friday. I may ask to switch between Mirataz® (mirtazapine transdermal ointment) – Mirataz to proper Mirtazapine if it is more effective, i'll also ask about Cyproheptadine. Do you have more positive experience with the latter?

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Ciao Antonio. We are desperately waiting for the Mirtazapine to kick in, it's really tiring and painful to force her to eat. I hope water and Aptus recovery booster is ok to keep her going. E-Tube i don't know, it feels like aggressive treatment, the vet didn't even mention it. You can imagine...

    Taste of the Wild Prey - Turkey

    GeoDjay of course you'll always find better food than that, but after some researches i have worked that Taste of the Wild is a good compromise between quality and price. Almo is definitively more expensive, but sometimes i find decent offers online. Good luck with that ;)

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Ciao Antonio65, thanks for the answer. Yes it seems like a challenging sickness...the urine culture is what have shown to the vet the presence of the bacteria. As for today she is definitively in a better mood, however, she still refuses to eat. She has no feeding tube at the moment. We are...

    Taste of the Wild Prey - Turkey

    Hei, is there ZooPlus in Lebanon? Taste of the wild is alright, never had a problem. If you can afford it try Almo. I visited their factory, they are great in my opinion

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Blood test today is good! no FIV, FHV, nothing, the values of the kidneys infection are going down. However, the cat still refuses to eat and lost already 1 kilo. Yesterday she vomited twice :( Today i bought some probiotics for unsettled stomach and she seems more interested in food. She's...

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Hei LTS3, first of all, thanks for your answer. I read the article that you posted, the condition is serious, maybe we should just be patient and wait for the antibiotics to start working... What troubles us is the lack of appetite, is it possible that a cat refuse to eat for such a long time? i...

    Possible Pyelonephritis, we can't find a solution

    Hei there, I read articles in this great and very useful forum in the past. I have decided to post here out of desperation. About one month ago our 5 y.o. cat Aprikos started vomiting almost every second day for 10 days or so. We went to vet and she took blood test that resulted to be perfect...
