Sending some positive vibes your way for Cindy's surgery tomorrow. I'm sorry she has to stay overnight. That's rough. But soon enough she'll be reunited with you. I so hope the surgeon will be able to remove the mass completely.

Vet only recommended milk thistle for an appetite stimulant. Still had some leftover from the first time around, so I gave it a shot again. Rocky spit out the little I gave him and then went on to puke. I'll try mixing it with his food later to see if that'll help him keep the milk thistle down.

I'm going to call about an appetite stimulant right now. Thanks.

Good luck today. I hope Cindy gets her surgery and everything goes well.

Rocky is getting really adamant about not swallowing the Denosyl pill. After a long struggle this morning I gave up. He's fighting that pill so bad I don't know if it's worth upsetting him. I've been feeding him Friskies, just because it was on sale and a friend recommended it. I got in 6...

Healthy vibes sent. Rosie is adorable! I hope the lump is benign. My cat has had a lump for a few months now, but the vet says it's just a harmless cyst and that some cats are prone to getting them.

The vitamin paste still gets blended in with his food. Whenever I try to feed him more, he pukes. It doesn't matter if I wait an hour between syringes. Yesterday he puked up his Denosyl pill 4 hours and 2 feedings later. I'm surprised the medicine hadn't gotten digested yet. I'll keep trying to...

Wow, can't believe it's been 9 days since I last posted to this thread. Time is flying! Just to give an update....Rocky is still taking the daily Denosyl pill (minus the two days where I found out later he puked it up). He got to the point again where he wouldn't eat from a spoon, so I started...

Just an update: talked to the vet a few days ago and he doesn't know the cause of the liver failure. The only thing I can connect it to is the vaccination shot. I am seriously considering not having my cats get any more vaccinations or at least follow the vet association's schedule of every 3...

How awful for that family. If sentimental value can be used in court for material objects, I don't see why pets can't have at least the same standard. What a sad case. 

I never knew dry food could be bad for cats before I came on this site. My vet told me wet food was bad for teeth, so I always fed my cats dry food. I think I'd rather risk them having bad teeth than all the other health problems related to giving dry food.  Heheh, I like imagining Spencer's...

Thanks for the advice, everyone. So sorry to hear about Dusty's passing. Rocky is eating better. Been mixing the multivitamin gel with his food. He doesn't eat much at a time, but he is lapping it up faster, like his appetite is coming back. He ate about 4 tablespoons of wet food so far and I'm...

Had a scare late last night when I woke up to see how Rocky was doing and he didn't respond to petting. I was so freaked out I just sat next to him for a while. I wasn't sure if he had passed away or was in a deep sleep. Turned out to be the latter. :) He woke up and was able to lick 2 teaspoons...

That's so wonderful Spencer is back to normal. I smile at the thought of him playing with his kitty toys again.

Rocky's ALT is in the normal range at 70. So that's a good sign, maybe? He ate about an ounce of food this morning, but then puked it up after I gave him the milk thistle and was too rough with the dropper. I didn't mean to be. I'm lousy at giving food and liquids to him orally. :(  Since then...
