Update- Tiki seems to be doing very well. He is eating very well and drinking a good amount too. His stools are of a very normal size. Clinically, he looks very good. He seems to be back to himself. He has been on prednisone for the past two weeks and he is still getting it. We are having blood drawn today. When I get the results I will post them up.

Thank you for the continued support.

Sorry for the late update. The blood results are back. His liver enzymes have gone down (alkp down to 500). Although the numbers are far from normal, he is on the right road. Tiki looks excellent and attitude-wise is back to himself. We have been taking him to the vet every day for prednisone and Pepcid. We just added Ursodiol. This news is very encouraging to us. Thank you all for the continued support.

That is very good news. You and the vet are to be congratulated - it is difficult to pull a cat back from liver failure.

It's good to hear that Tiki is doing so much better.
You've done a great job with him. Positive thoughts and healthy vibes to Tiki.
