I've been taking care of my Kidney Disease/ Diabetic cat for the past 4 years, we've had our share of spills and triumphs during that time, mostly triumphs. Normally my cat is acting like a little kitten! However, this weekend while I was away she began throwing up her food and when I returned she was listless and weak. Her blood tests from a few days prior came back excellent, best they had ever been, so my vet was as confused as I was. I am still waiting on the results of a urine test as well. However, in my enthusiasm to help, I believe I may have administered her too much Famotidine, because she is showing symptoms like dizziness, nausea and lack of appetite. She walks like she can barely stand, urinates on and off out of the litterbox and hovers over her food without eating. Last night she ate quite a lot with the help of an appetite and nausea pill, but this morning she was back to the same. I'm hoping that appetite and nausea pills will again help her feel better and get some food in her, but from what I can see online it takes 2-3 days for famotidine to exit her system.
It's upsetting to see her in pain and to have exhausted my options to no avail! I was wondering if anyone had some experience with this, I'm not sure what else to do!
Best,
Kim
