Greetings,
I just registered and I thought I would share what is going on with my cat. Before I begin, she is scheduled to visit the vet tomorrow.
Approximately two weeks ago my 8 year old female cat threw up about 4 or 5 times over about a 16 hour period. She has been on Hills Science Diet K/D (low protein, low phosphorus) for most of her life because he had chronic kidney stones when she was young. No signs of reoccurring stones. Anyway, after she threw up she didn't touch her food for several days. She would eat treats but not her dry food. I switched her dry food to another brand (that serves the same purpose). She ate a little of it but not much. Well, things have gotten worse they seem, as she has not ate in at least 3 days. SHE IS DRINKING so thats a plus. When she was nibbling here and there she did have a bowel movement.
No recent throw ups, just not eating and she has lost weight. She is aggressive and I'm worried the vet will have a hard time dealing with her. She has to be weak and they may have to put her to sleep in order to fully examine her. Diabetes is on my mind and I was wondering if it would be hard to treat her with her kidney problem. I only have a very little selection of food to choose from due to her problem. Any thoughts??
