Hi everyone, im new here, my cat 'penelope is a 9 year old DSH, indoor cat and such a darling, having no children I'm afraid I see her as just that really (silly I know), I rescued her when she was around a year and a half old so have no genetic history, making times when she's unwell a bit of a guessing game, being an indoor cat unfortunately she tends to suffer with attachment anxiety when we have our one holiday a uear, stressful for us as it normally manifests itself in vomiting that as a rule we get her through it with some TLC and a bland diet of chicken and rice, just recently we returned after she spent 11 nights in our local veterinary cattery where we trust she was well cared for,a day after being home she started vomiting as per normal so we went through the usual routine?Unfortunately after nearly two days of barely eating, drinking and bringing up yellow bile we took her off to the vet,she suggested keeping her in, put her on a drip to rehydrate, gave her antibiotic, anti sickness, anti inflammatory, took blood to test, after a very long stressful night I called to see how she was- the vomiting had stopped, she was bright and vocal , the bloods had come back slightly high on the liver and alittle jaundice, my vet assured me the results were probably due to penelope being unwell and wasn't overly concerned as everything else was fine, after a very long discussion we did agree that as the anxiety, vomiting ect is stress related and although this seemed much worse this time penelope has always had slight digestive problems in that she doesn't drink alot of water, her stools are very dry and hard which must cause discomfort at times even though she ate both wet+dry food that we would change her diet to Royal Canin feline gastrointestinal moderate calorie dry food..my question is has anyone else done this and is it ok for her to be on it longterm,?how have your cats health been since? Cats are carnivores will not eating meat be ok? (I know the food is developed by vets so should be ok)..any help or advice would be appreciated. ..meant to say after four days at home she seems well and enjoying her new kibble...
