It's been a year since I've been on the website and I apologize for waiting so long to update. I just wanted to thank everybody for all the advice and support you gave me - it gave me hope and helped me keep going. I also wanted to give an update on Pumpkin and Oreo - after three months of tube...

Thank you for the support everybody, I really appreciate it. At the moment, I can't afford the pet insurance especially with his vet bills. I'd like to see about getting it for my pets early next year, but I'll have to wait and see. I actually have 5 cats so unfortunately I have to wait until...

Thank you kagami, I really appreciate it. :)

Thank you for the response Forrest. I'm trying to give him as much attention as I can, but it's still rather overwhelming. I've tried a bunch of different stuff, he doesn't want to eat anything. It's hard to get him to even lick gravy. It's been 16 days since he had the tube placed. I'm pretty...

I'm really glad your cats got better and thank you for responding. I'm trying very hard to stay calm and not upset him. It's honestly hard to tell if he's getting better, I think he's gained weight, but not very much. He won't eat on his own still, but he doesn't vomit up his tube-fed food...

So I just spoke to the vet and she said to start giving him the Denosyl again as long as he can keep it down and doesn't vomit. I really hope it helps, Thanks again for your response.

The first vet prescribed Denosyl, which I believe is the same thing as Denamarin. Currently, he's not taking them because the second vet said I should just tube feed him for now. I'm going to call the office and ask about it when I call to put in an order for more prescription food.

Updates: the mammary tumors on Pumpkin turned out be benign, most likely caused by the cysts the vet found on her ovaries. She has since been spayed and the tumors removed so this should no longer be an issue. This was a huge relief to me considering 90% of mammary tumors found in cats are...

Thank you again for your reply. I took Oreo in this morning and they did an ultrasound and thankfully didn't find anything. They put a feeding tube into his neck and he is being cared for 24/7. He will remain there until Tuesday next week. I'm still really worried about him and Pumpkin, but I'll...

Hi Denice, thank you so much for answering. I have a couple questions for you. Did your vet hesitate to diagnose hepatic lipidosis or did you just come to that conclusion based on the bloodwork? Did you just have bloodwork done for your kitty or did they suggest you have an ultra sound done to...

Hello everybody, I'm new to the forums so I figured I would say hi first of all. I debated whether or not to make an account and post, but I'm so emotionally overwhelmed I decided to give it a shot. I'm about to break down and cry again because I feel helpless and don't know what to do. I guess...
