Thank you so much for your advice.  I just fed him with a syringe the way that you instructed. I was able to get some food and his antacid down. An hour or so ago, I softened and removed the dried mucous in his nose with a warm washcloth, and then I fed him some solid food. He did eat some food...

He has barely eaten today. I keep holding food up on my fingers for him to eat. He licks it, but not enough food to get his antacid in. I am giving him water through a syringe - so a little water is getting in. The vet said if he doesn't improve by tomorrow to bring him in. I fear that she will...

So it is Monday morning. I slept on the sofa with Jet. He slept very comfortably, like he wasn't sick at all, and woke up a few times only to snuggle into my hand a little more. But he woke up about 15 minutes ago, his breathing is still more noisy ever since I gave him an extra dose of the...

Thank you so much. 

Jet is on baytril that is inside the SQ fluid. Which supplements and meds is your cat on?

Thank you. We are sitting with him now, and although we are concerned by how sleepy he is, he is resting and looks very comfortable. Not pinched and sad, so that gives us hope. It's just that he seems to want water, but can't seem to open his mouth to drink it. He did eat dinner earlier (a mix...

Thank you Carolina.  Yes, I am going to take him for a second opinion today.  Unfortunately, I am on the other side of the country for Thanksgiving - just arrived yesterday. So we booked a flight for first thing this morning to fly back home to treat him. Hopefully, it isn't too late. I just...

Thank you. Yes. That is what I am going to try. He is eating, so to me that feels like a positive sign.  

HELLO. THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING SO QUICKLY. I AM PANICKED.  Jet is approximately 16 years old. He has never been diagnosed with this, and has been healthy all of his life - apart from pneumonia when I found him on the street when he was a kitten. The vet said that I could put him on renal...

Hello.I was told tonight that my cat's creatinine level is 10. The vet recommends euthanasia asap as she said he is in pain and will not bounce back from that high of a level. He is lethargic, and drinking a lot and is obsessed with water sources (really more evident this past week, and the...
