I had our vet give Micah an exam, a complete feline blood panel and urinalysis last week. I wanted to be certain that he's getting all he needs from his raw diet.
He's doing pretty good healthwise, but they want to take some more blood to moniter his liver/kidneys and do a platlet count on him. They also want to do a FIV/Feline Leukemia test as well. :eek: I really hope everything comes out alright.
She put Micah on some antibiotics and some prednisone for the inflammation in his mouth. She thinks he has a gum/teeth condition. He actually GROWLED at her when she opened his mouth! My Micah!!! She said that meant it really hurts him. (Could have fooled me, the way he wolfs down anything in site!!)
Anyway, we had them compounded because I didn't want to agrivate his mouth by shoving pills down there. He likes that added chicken flavor in his food! ;)
We have him eating IVD dry with his raw diet and the litter box still looks great!! Yay, Micah!!
Please keep him in your prayers that the other tests go well.
