I just wanted to post a quick update about Arthur because he seems to be having a good day today.
I've been syringe feeding him his L/D food and giving him his pills etc. He got some sub-q fluid the day before yesterday (Im laying off that though, I made his food too watery so he should be plenty hydrated with that for the next day) I put him back in my bedroom instead of the spare so he can be around everyone and I think he likes it better. I've been getting a lot of food into him (not enough, but we're working on it) and he's really perking up. Still no interest in food and I think his ears might be a little more yellow but he's moving around a little more (from the kitty tree to under the bed etc) and he moves if Im bothering him with too much attention
This is great since he was totally lethargic and barely moved all day. He's more alert and looked out the window for a little while, had a BM yesterday and is peeing plenty. And putting up a little bit of fight when I feed him. He sniffs the tuna when I offer it but thats all. What really made me feel especially pleased was that he purred a little bit today
And I weighed him and he's at 16.2, which is what he was at on Tuesday when we went to the vet. So Im quite pleased that he's not lost any more weight.
I'm a little nervous, I feel like we're doing very well but Im worried that he's going to get worse before he gets better (or, god forbid, worse).
