Hi all,
I have a 15 month old cat that is very sick. I took him to the vet yesterday and was given azithromycin to give to him. The vet mentioned pneumonia. He hasn't eaten in a couple days no matter what I try. He will try to drink from the water bowl and through the faucet in the sink. I've also had to give him water with a syringe. I don't know what else to do about him not eating. He'll walk up to the dish when I am putting his canned food on it but he just stares at it. I've warmed it up and tried mixing it with water. I've done homemade chicken broth and liquid from tuna as well. I'm at a loss about what to do. He ate a couple bites yesterday and the day before but that's it. He is very congested so I know he can't smell his food. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I'd appreciate any help I can get!
