Marbles the chewer

[Catty1]

Maybe once she 'empties' out a bit more, she will be hungrier. Prayers going out!

I'm sorry to hear that she's still not eating well. I know that when my RB Pepper was constipated the first time he stopped eating and lost a lot of weight. This is when I used to free feed so I didn't even notice that he wasn't eating right away. I'd also ask your vet about possibly giving her vitamin B-12 shots. This helped my Ziggy get her appetite back when she was very sick last summer with mild pancreatitis. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are going out to Miss Marbles.

Well, she finally had a normal poop last night, after which she went zooming around the apartment for about half an hour - she was feeling SO much better.

Her appetite is still off, but not gone. The vet said to watch her for a few days and keep trying to entice her to eat yummy things. Those Evo Wild Cravings treats are a huge hit and very expensive, but she loves them. She's also starting to nibble on the Evo food which is what I want to transition her to.

The pampered puss is back to being a super-brat so I know she's on the mend. It may just take a few more days for her digestion to catch up.

YAY! She's eating the Evo FOOD! Real Food! YIPPEE! \o/

That's a good girl Marbles!!! Now keep it up and gain some weight for your mama.

I'm seeing this right now. I am glad to hear she got that fleece out of her system. I would be worried if a young kitty wouldn't eat. I know all about not eating with Filou but Orion now eats like a little lion.
Glad to hear she finally came around

Atta girl, Marbles! Now keep up the good work; better and better......

[Catty1]

YAAY! Though I wasn't worried once I read about her being a brat lol!

[RedHedd]

Oh the brat part is alive and well. Appetite is still off, although she is nibbling. I think I will get the appetite stimulant the vet is recommending.

[Pinot's Mom]

Go Marbles!!

I like to give my cat children's toys. The cat toys are not sturdy at all!

[katladyd]

My boys love nothing more than a catnip mouse or a ball of tinfoil. Thankfully, neither of them is a chewer. They just love to bat things around. I hope Marbles is fully recovered very quickly and is eating you out of house and home.

The vet put her on an appetite stimulant which has gotten her eating a bit more, however I can tell she's still not out of the woods. Yesterday she didn't greet me the two times I had gone out and returned home, which is very unusual for her. Once she was busy bathing (which she seriously needs to do - she's been remiss in that area since this all started), but the second time she was just meatloafed in the hallway, obviously not feeling very well, giving me a pathetic mew in greeting.

Of course, later she did proceed to play and bite me which is very normal for her. I just wish they could talk sometimes.

I felt bad leaving her alone this morning as I left for work. I just hope that whatever it is/was passes without further incident or injury.

Poopies and zoomies! Good girl, Marbles! I hope the appetite stimulant helps, and I hope your digestion is back to normal very soon. Please allow your meowmie to give you a gentle *kiss* from me.

I sure hope that Marbles will bounce back soon. I'll continue to keep her in my thoughts and prayers.

On a side note, my Ziggy hasn't been quite her piggy self lately. She's still on a diet but now she rarely eats her food and I noticed that she had some diarrhea the other day. I think my two widdle boys have been stressing her out so much that it's making her sick. I know that cats hate change and she certainly does. Lets hope that both of our girls will soon have big appetites again.
