He isn't blocked, during the period in which he was eating he was using the litterbox. He's also now seen two different vets since mine was out of town for a conference yesterday. Neither felt an abdonimal obstruction. He somehow got a bout of pancreatis (still not sure how he got it though) and that is what caused him to stop eating.Originally Posted by Catty1

I hope the vet has discussed a feeding tube for Corkscrew. Often with the 'fatty liver disease' (hepatic lipidosis) the cat feels sick, doesn't eat, liver gets inflamed, makes cat feel worse, cat doesn't feel like eating - - the one thing that the cat does need is to eat. If a feeding tube is an option for you, I would recommend you go with this treatment. Feeding the cat is relativly easy. It will get enough food into the cat that he needs. The tube feedings may go on for a month or so. The longer a cat goes without adequate food intake, the worse the disease becomes. Best of luck for you and Corkscrew.
how's corkscrew?

I don't want to say that he's better, but he isn't doing any worse. He seems to be ok with the force feeding sessions, he doesn't like it but he will at least tolerate it. I've been able to get three small meals a day into him. He is also starting to be a little more social. He's not spending all of his time under the bed anymore, he's out and about and asking for attention now.Originally Posted by shais_mom

That is hopeful...if he is 'coming to' socially, he will hopefully feel better enough to eat on his own one of these days.
Is he still on anti-biotics?

I am sorry for what you and Corkscrew have to go through. It looks at least as if there is a small improvement. I hope he continues to be better.
