My 3yr old neutered male cat came back from the vet a week ago after being
there 2 days on a cath for blockage. He's just now finally acting like himself. He still uses the litter box frequently,not a LOT at one time,but no blood...BUT
I am having a horrible time getting him to eat the hill's c/d..more than horrible,not at all! He will eat his Iams hairball "somewhat" and will eat some wet,but other than that - nothing..He has lost some weight. He has been doing better yesterday and this morning. He will eat tuna in water,but I know he shouldn't be...but i had to get him to eat something or he'd die.
My question is,is there another dry food that he can eat that won't cause the
crystals?
Also, are all wet foods safe for him or only certain ones...and how do I tell? He's not real big on wet food,but I thought I'd try some.
Thanks for any suggestions!!!
Also, he'd been snitching food out of our dogs bowl before he had his problems....could this be the likely cause of his blockage. The dog is on
Iams senior.......since my cat came back home,I only put the dog's food down
for him to eat and then take it back up again.
