Last week Tuesday, our cat was weak and numb and she wasn't eating or drinking. We went to the vet, he said she got dental infection in her mouth and infection spreaded to her throat. He applied some antibiotics but the next day her appetite is not changed and she wasn't drinking any water. We went to the vet that day too, she got a serum and her antibiotics. She was be able to eat mashed wet food mixed with warm water, I was giving to her like in 2-3 hour period. We went to vet next Friday, same as the other days he applied her antibiotics and we came home. This time she was not eating and drinking as before so we injected wet food and water to her mouth as our vet said. Lastly we went to the vet again in Sunday, vet gave us intensive care cat food because of her not eating told us to inject to her mouth with a syringe 2 times a day. Since Sunday she does not eat anything by herself when I gave her food she doesn't want it and acts like it is a bad thing she moves away from the food. Vet said her infection on her mouth has lowered but why doesn't she eat anything I mean anything besides what we gave it to her with a syringe. Only things she eats now are her intensive care cat food and we are making mashed cat food with a syringe. She has only gone worse I think, what should we do should we go to the another vet? She seems scared and anxious I'm scared going to another vet will made her worse. She is 10 years old I still need her in my life please help us.
Vet also said the first day when we went, if he gets a blood test it will only show her infection so he wouldn't understand any other thing. But we talked with another vet today she said getting blood test should have been done first, then treatment should be started. Which one is true? What should we do please help.
