How would you like to be held down or sedated and have your finger nails systematically removed with a laser then be forced to walk around on your fingers for two weeks while they heal?
Oh but I forgot, Your poor leather couch, tough decision! ...
Wouldn't it just be easier to buy a tube of the Lysine goo for your cat from your local vet's office? You can ask for a tube of it, most if not all vet's will sell it to you.
The price is around $25 for a fliptop tube that'll last you a long time.
mycatwasthebest: thankyou for your response, a vet check is scheduled.
YET ANOTHER UPDATE:
I did a search of the house and found yet ANOTHER black pony tail elastic that he puked up, and several bits of a regular rubber band that he puked up, I put all the rubber bits together and that totaled...
I'm not entirely sure, I did make an appointment to see the Vet by email I swear no less than an hour before he barfed it out, I think just knowing he'd have to go to the Vet scared the bejezzus out of him. hehe
I didn't give him anything special up to that point, only thing I did differently...
UPDATE:
Just a few minutes ago my little one barfed out one of those fabric covered elastic hair bands, the ENTIRE thing, all chewed, wet and yucky of course, followed by some bile looking liquid.
I'm assuming this was the cause to him not eating correctly over the past week or so and things...
thankyou, appreciate all the wonderful help.
We'll see what this Senokot tablet does, if it doesn't help I'll look into a different product at the pet store, and definitely BRUSH him more often to cut down these events to a minimum.
I did do the neck test, it stands up for about a second total, but goes down fairly fast.... Thankyou Angelina for telling me about this dehydration test.
He IS eating today, ate a whole GOOD SIZED serving of tuna with juice on it, and nibbled at his crumbles a bit, also drank a little bit of...
ADDED INFORMATION:
He pooped today, hard black twisty stool.
Stopped eating his normal crumble food altogether, I've read cats won't eat what they can't smell, so I've been dribbling tuna juice on his crumbles and giving him tuna meat or wet tinned cat food, which he IS a little more receptive...
I should have been a little bit more clear, he's not eating NORMALLY, He is eating a little bit at a time, and does drink small amounts, normally he wolfs down LOTS of food, loves to eat.
As for the poopy and pee, he did poop today, a twisty mess of black HARD stool, and did pee as well.
My cat is approx. 8 years old, male, orange tabby and he has been exhibiting some odd behavior lately.
It all started about a week ago with me catching him doing that UNF UNF UNF upchucking sound, you probably know what I mean.
Then in the same day I saw him chewing on a plant leaf here in my...
