I have a cat that was diagnosed with hepatic lepidois on Friday. He was severely constapated which is why I guess he stopped eatting. They gave him an enema, subq fluids, a antibiotic shot and and appetite stimulant shot, and sent me home with an appetite stimulant that I put on his ear. He seems to be doing mostly ok. I was also given a surenge and some high calorie food. he is nibbling on his own but not drinking water. I have been surenge feeding him and feeding lots. but no one seems to be able to tell me how much to feed. I have made it a point to feed him every 4 hours 2oz of water and food mixed.. and offer food and treats between. we have made it through half a bag of temptation treats, half a can of kitten food, 1/4 c dry food, both cans of ad, 1 can of friskies. he is a 22lb cat. he has not thrown up, mainly wants to sleep but is alert and will come when he hears food, no yellowing. had a few goes of diarrhea last night. Change of food/enema? Anyone have any experience with some tips and tricks? I will call the vet when they open about the diarrhea.
