    I'm so glad he's doing better! It sounds like he's healing well. I know it's a lot of work to care for a kitty that's recovering. You're doing a great job!

    Aww, poor guy! That cone looks really nice. That was a great idea. Can you call the surgeon and ask how to clean his ear?

    It sounds like you've found some good ways to make him comfortable and happy. The soft cone makes sense, and I would think that would help. It looks like he's healing well!

    I have no idea why I didn't get the notifications. I did get one tonight! I'm glad to hear that Zeus was able to settle down and is getting some sleep. It is so stressful to go through things like this with our kitties! I am thinking of you and am hoping you can get some rest.

    I hadn't seen any of your latest updates because I wasn't receiving email notifications like I usually do! I'm so glad he's home and doing well, but it looks like it's going to be challenging to take care of him with the cone and confinement. You are doing a great job with him! Keep us updated!

    Cat Only Eating Baby Food

    Ok, I'm convinced to try the Canna-Pet now :) My vet actually suggested that as an alternative, since my cat also developed a tolerance for Mirtazapine after it worked great for 2 years. I tried Cyproheptadine, but it worked no better than the Mirtazapine, and made my kitty too sleepy. I was...

    Cat Only Eating Baby Food

    So sorry to hear about your kitty Tiger! My kitty is on Cerenia & Zantac as well. She actually doesn't seem that nauseous, and has a fairly good appetite considering her issues, but only for baby food! I have tried almost every brand of cat food there is, including Max Cal, and she'll only eat a...

    Cat Only Eating Baby Food

    My cat has been only eating baby food for some time now. I have tried everything, including appetite stimulants, to get her to eat cat food, but it doesn't work. My cat has CKD, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and anemia, so I pretty much have to give her whatever she'll eat. However, I'm worried...

    Lactulose and hypercalcemia?

    My cat was diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypercalcemia 5 years ago. I switched her from Lactulose to Miralax, and the problem never returned. However, I also started aggressively treating her IBD at the same time, so I am not sure if the uncontrolled IBD or the Lactulose caused the Hypercalcemia.

    I also forgot to mention that my cat's ears were previously itchy & waxy. My vet recommended using Zinc Otic, 2x a week, and it really cleared up her ears & stopped the itching. The Zinc Otic is a mild cleansing solution that you drop directly into the ear. It's another tool to try :)
