Ritz is sick. She was diagnosed with FLUTD Friday morning (by a relief vet--not her normal one) after a worsening of symptoms, including not urinating for 18 hours and gassy, runny stools. Vet gave her a shot of Metacam as an anti-inflammatory. There wasn't enough urine in her bladder to obtain a urine sample. Had a nice pee Saturday morning, finally.
BUT since late Thursday she's been having gassy, runny stools. Originally I thought it was from the raw kidney and cat grass I gave her that morning. So of course no more of either any time soon. She's not eating any bone, partly because she won't eat the commercial raw that does have bone in it, partly because she doesn't have the jaw strength yet.
Her appetite is decreased, though I sense she has some interest in food.
Are there any more tolerated meats, organs, non-organs than others? I'm defrosting chicken wings and chicken hearts; she loves chicken hearts.
Obviously if the gassy, loose stools continue, I will take her again to the vets on Monday. But in the meantime, any advice?
