My cat Kirby has not eaten for 6 days. He had surgery for removal of 4 teeth 7 days ago. He ate a little when he got home.
Since then he has not eaten anything. He does not purr or show any interest in anything. He drinks a little water. I took him back to the vet 2 days after surgery but my concerns were not listened to just given reassurance. I then took him to the emergency vet at the weekend who did a blood test but could find nothing wrong. We were given a few tins of food to try and tempt him. Took him back to the original vet after the weekend, she gave him a steroid injection and a pill to increase his appetite. Her did improve, started to purr again and drank more but still refused any food.
The Vet told me that during the surgery they had to reintubate him because he brought up a lot of mucus.
I have no idea how to syringe feed him and do not have any equipment. Please help.
