My vet has decided my cat has stomatitis. I took her in a month ago after noticing she wasn't eating and looked thinner. My cat who's name is Kitty, was thrown out as a small kitten in a ditch near our house in the dead of winter and my husband began feeding her dog food. We decided to keep her in the garage when it was too cold out, which led to her staying there until the weather got better. We didn't want a cat so we decided to have her spayed and vaccinated and find her a home. Well, my husband became attached so we've had her about 5 years. She is about half wild but will let anyone pet her, just not pick her up; she's an outdoor cat. She stays in the garage every night and allowed to go out when she wants, but stays in all winter.
She was hospitalized for 3 days July 25th and given antibiotics, a steroid shot, fluids. My vet was going to remove a back took thinking it had a tumor because of the irritation around it, but after anesthesia was given and starting the procedure, he decided the tooth was rock solid and left it in. He said we will have to give steroid shots when it comes back and to keep a close eye on her Its been exactly a month and she refused food Monday and Tuesday when I took her for another shot. She has tried to eat dry food today. I've been feeding her dry for 5 years but got her canned and some tuna and salmon which she has been eating well this month. I've read so much information, I'm confused about what to do! My vet is small town and probably not seen many cases of this so I dont think he needs to try to pull all of her teeth. Her hospital bill was $500 which I'm making payment on. Has anyone tried the prednesolone cream applied to the inside of the ears? Using Plaque off? L lysine? Altopica? Bone Meal?Ubiquinol? Curcumin? Clunia? Raw food? Colloidal silver? I've read no fish, poultry, grains? Help please!
