I went to visit him for two hours annnnnnnnnnnnnnnd.........I got him to lick 3 tbsp of babyfood off my fingers!! (thanks for whoever recommended that)....and to answer previous questions we couldn't force feed, it was too hard on him and making him vomit and gag.
him licking the food off made him gag and choke and cough but he was trying so so so hard. Then he started trying to meow when I had to leave and it was so hard for him because his throat is so raw
poor man.
He was in heaven when I was scratching all his itchy spots.......
But he looked bright, it's him against his body but I really believe he'll be ok now........he still has breathing issues therefore I am keeping him at the vet on IV for atleast another day, probably two, which is really hard but I think it's whats best......
Thanks for all the vibes everyone, they are working. This is a really amazing community.........
He still has a bad cough and his lungs aren't great but that's going to take time and a course of steroids.......but he ate on his own a bit at the vets overnight, I came in during the day and he would eat when i was around so they decided it was time to try him at home! He needs to be watched carefully and brought back at the first sign of trouble but I think with small frequent meals and a LOT of TLC he is on the road to recovery.
What a journey........I mean in the last 5 months I've had to face almost putting both my kitties down due to weird and tragic illnesses.........talk about cats having 9 lives......
Thanks to everyone for their support......it really helped me alot
