Well, I picked up the Cerenia from the Vet's office and will get his Prednisolone later this afternoon from the compounding pharmacist. I gave him a Cerenia and 1/8 tab of Mirtazapine, and within 20 minutes, he's wanting to eat! Oh my goodness, knock on wood!!! He isn't acting weird or manic...

Yes, she has refilled the Cerenia for me, and her initial dosage for him was a whole tab, but I told her I wanted to try him on half first to see if it worked. It doesn't, so I will go back to the full tab as she had suggested originally. Do you think it's too much? Thank you so, so much for...

But... last time I gave him a full 16mg pill of Cerenia, it did get him eating voluntarily again. It seems like a half tab doesn't do much of anything for him at all. Nausea is still there and he doesn't want to eat   So maybe I will wait and do the full tab Cerenia with the Pred at the same...

Oh! She wants me to try the Mirtazapine until the Pred kicks in, since he hasn't eaten voluntarily in a day and a half, so it would be just a one-dose situation. She says it will be 12 hours to 3 days before the Pred will likely help with his appetite, and then it would be just Cerenia and Pred...

And here's Crashie and his best buddy and beloved brother, Burnie

I just wanted to post an update on Crash... my poor baby is back to not eating for the last two days, has been nauseous and scratching a bit (maybe he's allergic to the hypoallergenic Royal Canin Rabbit and Pea) so I've been forced to syringe feed him last night and this morning. I've spoken...

Hi Denice, thank you so much for your insight. I completely agree with you, and I want what is best for Crash. I hope my vet will agree to treat him without this specialist's biopsy because the specialist seemed like that wasn't an option. She wanted a biopsy first, then she would discuss his...

Thank you so much for your kind words & thoughts vball91... it has been such a hard, hard time, and I miss my Burnie Bear so much. He and Crash were inseparable, and it breaks my heart to see Crashie depressed and in discomfort, I want to do EVERYTHING I can to help him, as since his brother has...

Hey all, Here's a quick summary: In July I lost my baby, Burnie (10 years old) to what was most likely abdominal cancer or lymphoma (no biopsy) along with kidney inflamation and he was pts at home. It came on so fast and was so devastating to us, as he hid it well for what we're thinking was...

I know this is a really old post... but did you ever find an answer to her nausea? I am experiencing the exact same things with my kitty Crash and it seems to be that he is not eating 3 weeks after his steroid shot.

That's great! I'll ask about the tablet form for him. I just want him to eat and be his normal, happy, playful mischievous self :( He was so depressed about losing his brother and just started to get back to normal... and now I feel so helpless and at my wit's end that I can't fix this for him...

Thank you so much for your reply Denise! Unfortunately this is one of those finnicky as all heck kitties... he won't touch human food or even meat that I've cooked. Baby food is unappetizing to him... and he won't touch raw. He did surprise me last week when I gave him a tiny bit of raw Kobe...
