Give your vet a call. If the only symptom is loss of appetite, your vet can give him something to increase it. Any ideas

He has eaten half can of chicken, but he is eager to drink the liquid more than the chicken itself. He was soo playful..I would ask the vet if it's okay and safe to use Fortiflora. It is advertised for both adult cats and kittens. If the vet approves, maybe split one day's dose into two or three to support him eat small portions throughout the day which is easier for digestion.
I don't know what is going on if anything but regardless, I would suggest pate texture wet food and small meals throughout the day. Even my adult cat doesn't like to eat more than like 30-40 grams of wet food at one sitting. More makes her get gassy and painful. She also doesn't eat anything colder than room temperature or more than 1,5 can of the same wet food, she demands a different flavor. Some cats eat more when handfed.He has eaten half can of chicken, but he is eager to drink the liquid more than the chicken itself. He was soo playful..
We used fortiflora before, now he does not eat anything with it.. i syringed water 10ml*2 to make sure he is not dehyrated.. any ideas what is going on with my baby boy?
Hello everyone,It will change, just give him time to get his confidence back. Dont force him, let him do it is his time. Talk quietly to him and maybe sit on the floor and let him come to you. He has eaten well, thats great.
Thanks everyone! You are absolutely right..I agree with dkb817 . Try to relax, your kitty will pick up on your anxiety. Wet good is very high in moisture so if he's eating wet then he should be fine. I never see any of my cats drinking yet the water level mysteriously goes down. Write your concerns/questions down and take to the vets with you, dont be afraid to ask questions.
Update..Thanks everyone! You are absolutely right..
I will try to relax.. he is playful, walking around, plays with us, just hides from time to time.
I will keep you posted on Thursday.. thanks a billion for your support during these days
50% dry 50% wet food. He has been eating so well lately that I never thought we will again have issues. I may understand the variations in blood levels, but what about blood and protein in the urine?what do you feed him? Does he get enough moisture from food, or are you feeding him dry food only? If you're so worried I wouldn't feed dry at all if I were you, but high protein, low carbs wet, paying attention on the phosphorus levels.
I'd simply wait for professor's opinion. I'm guessing that my vet would say that such as small variation is normal in kittens.
It's my understanding that if the kidneys are healthy they won't let protein pass through their filters. However, they may let albumin leak from the blood into the urine.I may understand the variations in blood levels, but what about blood and protein in the urine?

I’m sorry, I hardly have any experience in this. But I understand UTI was ruled out?
