My 3 yr old male Birman who eats only raw food (Rad Cat turkey), is on a raw pancreatic enzyme, milk thistle, proviable DC and Cosequin has a PH of 8.0. He does not have any crystals present from what the urinalysis shows. He weighs 11 lbs, has pancreatitis and is force fed twice a day 31/2 oz...
Poor kitty! Both of my boys have chronic pancreatitis. They have one mild flare up for a few days every summer. This is what I do: 1 Proviable DC (probiotic)daily, Pan X-5 (raw pancreatic enzyme comes in capsule form from Progressive labs out of Texas), given twice a day, 1/4 famotidine...
What are you feeding Sebastian?
Both of my cats have pancreatitis which is completely under control. I feed my Birman boys RadCat raw Turkey which is an especially prepared, complete well-balanced raw diet. I buy it at my pet store but not all places carry it and it may need to be special...
Kibmufxy: it looks like you have a Birman too!! Aren't they great?? So mild mannered. They are known for their gastrointestinal issues however. I am very lucky with my boys, one flair up a year is not bad at all. Many cats with this condition have several fair ups every few months. Do you have...

I forgot to mention my cats are no longer on Fortiflora cause the proviable takes its place and my cats eat 100% raw food with a little freeze-dried chicken sprinkled on the top to entice them to eat more. The freeze-dried chicken is made by Wholelife and I get that online too.
The probiotic I used in capsule form is Proviable CD and Pan 5X is the pancreatic enzyme, also in capsule, that one is given twice a day. Pan5X you can gat online from Progressive Labratory. Proviable I also buy online from ProbioticSmart.com. Ask your vet about giving your cat 1/4 of a Cerenia...
Hi all,
As far as needing to administer Metronidazole, I put a half a pill in an empty gel cap that I purchased from my veterinarian, this way the pill doesn't dissolve in the cat's mouth and the cat won't taste the bitter taste that this medicine has, thus no vomiting (from the pill).
An...
Numerous high end cat foods, the next day they won't touch them. I am frustrated and worried. I tried one freeze dried raw diet and they ate a little one meal and like all refused to touch it again. FreshPet Vital is now the food of the hour but they will only eat tiny amounts. They don't come...
