Thanks Kt and allmadeofstars, and everyone else,
Yes, Lenny has definitely improved since his first two days home when he scared us by hiding and vomiting. As I said he seemed to be doing better every day last week, until Thursday night when he vomited a little, and then again on Sunday and Monday. When I awoke this morning, I found 3 spots of vomit in my dining room.
Lenny spent most of the night and this morning under the bed. He finally came out for my wife this afternoon and he ate about 2 helpings of wet food, but just a tad of dry food. He still will not play with his brother Jimi who is definitely in need of some "Lenny Love." He did however manage to kick Vinnie the Ragdoll off of his chair (a usual Alpha cat trait of Lenny missing for the past month).
Before his meds tonight, he ate more wet food, and then a little bit of KD dry. He then went under the bed again (making daddy stressed
) But then, about 15 mins ago, he came out and wanted more food, so he ate a bit more wet tuna. He is now under the table (fairly normal) and has not vomited! I am just hoping that he really is improving and that he will be more alert and playful as he was until this started. I am totally thankful that he seems to be on his way, and I guess I need to chill-out and not worry as much when he has these setbacks.
I spoke with the vet early this evening who wants me to put him back on the Pepcid in his fluid line, to stay with the Ursidiol and small dose of Pred, and the Methimazole/Ciprohetadine tans-dermal, as she doesn't think it is causing his upset tummy. She also said she may prescribe some pain meds for Lenny and, as I noted earlier, he is extremely hard to pill.
If he can just make it through the night and tomorrow day without vomiting, I would be so much more relaxed then i am now.
: KTLynn,
The Trans-dermal meds come from this pharmacy in AZ :

Apparently they can make tans-dermal meds out of many different medicines. They are very professional and cool to deal with. I highly recommend them. Ok, I have to get some sleep now. I just hope that Lenny does not wake us up again getting sick.
