My 5 year old Cat was throwing up before being put on Denamarin.  His liver enzyme level was real high.  At this point we aren't sure if it is a tumor.  Bubba had gotten real sick.  He's been on the Denamarin for a week and is doing really good.  He hasn't thrown up since being on it.  Also I have been doing an IV twice a day  for a week.  Beginning today  we have cut down to once a day.

So glad your furbaby is doing well on this medicine.  Hope his liver enzymes go done and he does NOT have a tumor.



Are you actually doing IV's, or sub-q fluids?  Sub-q is just under the skin.  IV's is going directly into a vein...much more difficult..usually done in the hospital to monitor them.

Thanks so much for the kind words.  Bubba is doing so much better.   He has started eating me out of house and home.

  My cat had liver damage a few years ago, secondary to pancreatitis and DKA.     A he survived the crisis , he was put on Denamarin and it seemed to really help.  Within a couple months all his liver values were back to normal.  and it looked much much better in ultrasound.  

I hope your kitty will do just as well.
