A friend caught a stray she had been feeding for over a year and brought him to me before she moved. He is an unneutered male who stinks so he is in groundfloor bathroom till I can bring him for surgery. Have had him over a month, no surgery yet as my medical issues and snow and ice have prevented me from the 1 1/2 hour drive to surgical site. Brought him to vet to make sure he was healthy enough for surgery, he is FIV positive. Bring food down to him 3x day with added vits/minerals/lysine. He is not very affectionate but I can pet him though sometimes he raises his paw to hit me, getting me twice. No growling or hissing and was good for vet exam. He eats the wet food I bring down while I sit with him for a few minutes. Then I leave and when I return there is the amount of food that he was eating when I left. Also does not eat much from the bowl of dry food. He loves Temptations though. I have not experienced this behavior of not eating after I leave. Any thoughts or advice? Thanks.
