    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Marcel passed away this morning. I don't know what happened. After my post yesterday he seemed to be feeling a little better, we hung out together the rest of the night and when I went to sleep he laid next to my bed on the rug, let me pet his stomach and seemed to enjoy it/happy. His cat bed is...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Marcel seems to have taken a turn for the worse. My mom came by and helped me administer the sub-c fluids, also gave him the Denamarin (took 5x's before he swallowed it). When I got home from work this morning he was hiding way in the back of my closet. Has not had any food or water (except for...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    I agree and felt this may be the case a few weeks ago. At that time I had taken him to a different vet (closer to home and to get a second opinion on what may be the cause of the original symptoms, was also still eating at this time, but just started the mouth/tongue thing). I wasn't very happy...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Yeah, I'm not even sure if "gagging" is the right word to use, just hard to describe in general. Since I know what seems to trigger it (not that I want to torture him but would help to have more video of it) I will try to prepare myself for a time when I think he will do it and try to get a...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    I agree and I think that's why the vet wasn't too concerned (as of yesterday) because he had the NG Tube in Saturday afternoon thru Tuesday early evening (didn't take it out until I came and picked him up). Ive also read on this myself and others have said that it generally takes a few days for...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    I have a few hours before work. Will make a stop, not that close by but... Anything is worth a try, making me stressed out/frustrated but whatever. I'll give the cat tuna a shot, my mom also suggested chicken from the can. Only thing I'm worried about is that it seems like anything moist and...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    When I offered the Rad Cat yesterday he gagged (did what he does in video) when I opened the container (doesn't gag? at the Stella & Chewy, treats or with water, just seems to be any sort of wet cat food, the goats milk, and some human foods that I prepare for myself). I'll try it today but have...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Oh no, I'm still very worried, especially having to work these shifts (yesterday/today). Felt a little relieved that the vet wasn't too concerned, but obviously want to get to the root of the problem too! As far as tumors, ulcers, FORL, FOP...I have research this myself because for a while...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Update: Vet just called back and he was happy to hear that he is drinking water and even the little bit of food (well treats), he thinks its a start. Told him that Ive been giving him the Denamarin and the Famotidine (Pepcid). I was worried (as everyone here knows) about his food intake (lack...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Yeah, that's how I feel I guess, treats are better than nothing, right? I know I know not nutritious, but its still something. Unfortunately he will only eat a few at a time, last night he would only eat them if I threw one on the floor and he had to go get it. Ive tried to put some in a bowl...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    No eating or drinking in the last 12 hours now. Just gave him the Denamarin and Pepcid and it took me 4 times before he swallowed them/did not spit out. I put a call in to the vet to update them and also see what they recommend as far a amount of (sub-c) fluids and waiting on a call back...

    Cat not eating. Mystery to me and the vets

    Well he did seem interested in the Rad Cat but smelled it and turned his head, warmed it a little and still a no. Tried the goats milk again and that actually made him gag (head/tongue) again. Here the best video I have of him doing it I don't want him eating the treats but I feel the treats...
