Thank you for your response. She's been through a lot in the last couple of weeks. She's still eating and drinking. I'm going to get some test strips to test her urine, and my husband bought one of those kits with the vials where we can collect her urine for the vet. We'll try that in a few days...

Hello. My kitty does seem to be saturating her litter box more still. She's drinking and eating normally, acting normally, except she's a bit dopey because she caught a little cold and is sneezing. I'm monitoring that too. Can Convenia make my cat temporarily drink and pee more in volume (she's...

I'm still weaning her off the stimulant and gave her less today. When she came home after not eating and drinking she drank an exorbitant amount of water. She is drinking less, but she's still drinking and peeing more than usual. Her kidney and urinalysis had normal numbers last week even when...

By the way, here's a picture of Jade.

My kitty did eat some of her food this afternoon when fed, so she is eating with less appetite stimulant. I'll try giving the same, smaller amount tomorrow and go from there.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Thank you for responding. It can be a tricky situation for sure. Sending comfort to you.

Thank you

Thanks. She's taking the transdermal kind, but same idea. I reduced her dose today and hopefully she'll keep eating. Do cats generally do well when you take them off the appetite stimulant if their inappetence is caused by something temporary? I can't find a lot of literature about weaning them...

I'm giving her one full dose per day in the morning on the pinnea of her ear. I should correct and say that I reduced her dose today to about 1/3 of a dose.

My cat has been eating well for the last five or six days, and now I need to wean her off the Mirataz (appetite stimulant). Any advice to increase her chances of keeping her appetite and keep her eating? I reduced the dose tomorrow and plan to try none tomorrow if she's still eating okay.

Convenia can be unpredictable. I won't give it to her again, and would be hesitant to give it to a cat in the future. We'll just have to have a daily death match or 'feed the cat the pill' when they need antibiotics. My kitty had a skin infection around her vulva and bottom, and that was what...

Kitty came home from vet. She is starting to eat again, but we're going to keep her on the appetite stimulant for a few days and monitor her closely.

I'm so sorry your kitty didn't make it. Thanks for sharing your story.

They kept her overnight, gave her IV fluids, appetite stimulant, and anti nausea medicine, but she still wouldn't eat. It may be because she gets so nervous at the vet they have to give her a sedative. They're going to give her an injectable appetite stimulant called midazolam. I'm so scared. I...

Will my cat start eating soon?

She was spayed when she was a kitten, and she was given pain meds at the vet Friday. The skin infection around that area must have been irritated from time to time and bled. It's difficult to see that part of her body because of her long fur.

Thank you for your feedback. I will bring her home again tomorrow and see how it goes. I will use some of your suggestions if she is still having issues eating. I could see the stimulant had an effect, she would sniff the food, but still wouldn't eat it. Maybe it needed more time. I'm a bit...

Correction: I don't know how this was miscommunicated by phone, but the bleeding my cat was having around her bottom that made me suspect a UTI was a vulvar infection around her bottom. Everything else is the same. She wouldn't eat with the appetite stimulant so I dropped her off for IV fluids...

Hello, My 10 y/o ragdoll mix is prone to getting crystals in her bladder. She fights us to tooth and nail to get any meds in her, pill or liquid. When she got a crystals in her bladder two times ago, she got the shot and was fine, and then we gave it to her another time about a year later and...
