    My Moe

    Thanks guys. Its been 2 days and I still really miss him so much and just feel wretched about it. I don't think I'll ever forgive myself or stop crying about him. \t I hate living without him.

    In memory of Sissy Kitty 4/1997 - 7/11/2010

    BlueRexBear, I'm so sorry about Sissy. I just went through a similar thing with my cat Moe just this week. He had the weight loss, just like Sissy, and I bought him canned food, hoping that would help....but it was worse than I thought. Moe had a brother just like Sissy, they were best buds...

    My Moe

    I lost Moe yesterday. I don't know if any of you saw on the health forums. He got really skinny and went down hill fast. He was skinny the past year and I took him to the vet about 1 yr ago, but they couldn't find anything wrong. We moved 2 months ago to a new house and I think the move...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Thanks everyone. It was so hard, but I had to do it for Moe so he wouldn't suffer. He's an angel now. Teamcarp, Yes that sounds just like Moe. They put him on lasix his last 2 days, but I don't think he was strong enough to pull through. Yes, he loved babyfood too...especially warmed up.

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Thanks everyone. I think my baby Moe isn't going to make it. I fed him a lot his morning, but when I came home from work he was worse. He gets worse each day and I'm starting to realize that it must be his time... no matter how much I want him to stay. I've been crying all day because I feel...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Man I don't know how I'm going to feed him that much. He can barely eat 1/2 a can a day. He needs at least 1 whole can. Hes so fragile and weak but if I pick him up and try to hold his head to force feed him, its like he turns into some kind of super cat and somehow manages to wiggle away...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Here is an update on Moe! He is now at 6 lbs. The vet said his teeth are actually looking a lot better since I started him on the medicine. So that's not the problem. Then he checked his kidneys again. The BUN was 53 and the CREA was in the normal range 40 something I think. So that wasn't...

    How do you know when to let go?

    Hi, I'm sorry about your cat Stripes. I am going through the same thing with my kitty Moe. He is one 9 or 10 years old and just got diagnosed with kidney failure 2 weeks ago. That is great that your cat has lived a year since being diagnosed! That is good. I hope my cat can live that much...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Carolina, I am 2 hrs away from Dallas. I don't know how well Moe would handle the drive because he hates going to the vet and is really fussy about it. But I am open to anything really! The vet I have now seems good. They actually have 3 vets in their office. I just moved here and he has...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Thank you everyone for all of your kind words and advice and helping me get through this hard time with Moe. He is wasting away. I am going to take him to the vet in the morning. He is starting to hide in cabinets which I know is what cats do when they are about to die. I have heard that...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Thank you Carolina. I appreciate your advice and help! I will try to start leaving out more food for him. I tried leaving out the mushy prescription diet but he would never eat it on his own. It has been 13 days and he is still doing really poorly. He picked up a bit for about a week but...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Hi, this is just an update on my kitty. Well I decided not to wait any longer and to force him to eat...other wise he was going to starve to death. I blended some of the prescribed vet food with baby food and water and put it in a syringe and force fed him. At first he didn't like it, but then...

    How to get a sick skinny cat to eat?

    Hi, my kitty is 9 years old and just got diagnosed with kidney problems where he cannot digest protein. He is down to 7 lbs. Today, the vet gave me some Purina NF to feed him, that should help his kidney functions and help him get better. He is still kind of shy about eating ANYTHING right...
