Hi, thanks for responding to me!  He does it when not purring.  The stool has been normal for 3 days now and I do believe that the change in food is the reason for that although never say never.  If it goes back again then I know it must be something else and may even feel relief in the thought...

Hi, I got a 1-2 year old cat from a shelter 2 months ago.  They only had him for a few days.  He was fixed and given shots and tested for FeLuk (neg).  I  noticed he had soft stool and and horrible gas from day one.  After getting tested I discovered he had parasites.  He was given several...

I am so sorry Becky!  Clearly she was very loved!

Today is the first day since this started that he clearly isnt feeling well.  I shouldnt have spoke, I jinxed the poor guy.  Stopped eating again.  Up until last night he was doing so well.  Better than in a long time.  Will give him a few days as I think it may be the pancreatits although water...

Hi Becky I see you are on line, how is your baby?

Sorry I didnt get to tell you this sooner Go Holistic but this cat is trucking along.  Apparently the nasty bout with the Pancreatitis this time has "righted" itself for the time being and I guess the Diabeties hasnt quite kicked in yet, as he took a turn around and started to eat again and act...

Becky McBeth, welcome to the world of Pancreatitis.  The roller coaster ride that it is.  I am so sorry that I havent gotten back to you sooner.  I personally relied heavily on this site when I first came aboard and I am sorry I didnt get to respond to you sooner.  What has happened with your baby?

No food intake today.  I babyfood fed him and he hid in the closet.  Cant do that to him anymore.  Tomorrow?  I dont know.

OK, that helped me right there.  To know the diabeties numbers are high.  I knew when I left the vet I would question - is he really that sick?  Even though I was told.  Are the numbers really high because of that and not Pred or stress?  I know me and how my twisted mind works.  He is still...

Hey GoHolistic, his Glucose is 600.  Already up from last Wednesday when he had blood drawn.  That is with only having a half a pred in the morning yesterday as opposed to an entire pred the first time he was tested.  not having much pred in him at all so it went up already.  So there it...

No they never really were stopped all together.  I guess I thought they were supposed to be in between flares.  I just got the feeling that Sebastian was weened off of them when he was feeling better but I think you just meant that the doses were lowered and my vet always talked of downing...

Unfortunately all he is eating now and will eat is the gravy from Friskies and has all of a sudden started eating dry Purina NF for kidneys...go figure - as this was the dry food he refused when I initially tried it. He isn't eating enough on his own even with the appetite stimulant...Cerenia...

Unfortunately all he is eating now and will eat is the gravy from Friskies and has all of a sudden started eating dry purina nf for kidneys...go figure? He isnt eating enough on his own even with the appetite stimulant...Cerenia and Pred. He has been on everything more than he hasnt lately...

Hello, I havent spoke on here it quite a while but I am dealing with a new problem with my Guinness.  He has been struggling to recover with this last bout of Pancreatitis and I went for bloodwork to see if the kidneys have started to get worse.  They have not, however, his gluclose levels were...

CPRCheetah I hate the Mirtazapine but sticking to it for now.  I hate how it makes him act.  I give him 1/8th in the morning then 1/8th in the afternoon of the day he is due.  Sometimes the next day.  I try not to give him that 1/4 all at one time because of what it does.  We are still burping...
