He's had a long hard road, as have you. I hope this is just a tough spot before the turnaround.

I am sad to learn that the med is not working. And that BraveHeart is fighting you so much. BUT, at least he is eating on the sly...More prayers for you both!
Sneaky little boy. ;) He's trying his best to get something into him, that's for sure, and he's eating what he feels he can handle. Maybe this is a good sign.
We're all praying, and we're all with you, BraveHeart and Jen.
Love,
Pat and cats
He ate tonight, but not the canned food! He ate dry food (I pour water over it, to soften it) and he licked all the water and actually ate kibble!
I think our problem is that he prefers dry food over canned, but I haven't figured out his "Favorite" one. Combine that with the fact that he has no teeth :eek:
And I got some of his sub-q fluids into him tonight.
He's fairly perky, well, for BraveHeart :rolleyes:
Hanging in there until the monday blood tests.
Oh Jen! I will continue to pray for that handsome boy!
More and continued prayers for BraveHeart!
I hope that he'll continue to eat well. He continues to remain in my thoughts and prayers.
Any little bit of food is better than none; come on, Braveheart, let's get this show on the road and start eating consistently!! Make your momma proud!! (and make all of us feel better ;) ).
Maybe he should rub up against Mr. Meow? :D
How is our BraveHeart doing??? Still eating, I hope!!! Prayers....
YUP! Still eating. DRY FOOD! :eek: I figured him out to be a cat that prefers dry to canned, but his mouth was too sore for so long that he couldn't eat. He practically snubs the canned food anymore, even the flavors he seemed to like before.
I have not been syrige feeding him for last last several days. (He could use the calories, but I don't want to push his tummy) Let him gain the weight slowly.
I sure hope those numbers look better this time! (test on Monday, results on Wed)
That's a good boy!!! Now, let's hope for good labs!!!!!!!!!
Oh, what great news! You keep nibbling that kibble, BraveHeart!!
BraveHeart - goals for you:

I got the blood test values back tonight. :(
All his kidney numbers went UP (not down)
His PCV has not improved
And the vet says there isn't a whole lot more to offer him. :(
I am to try to give more fluids sub-Q, which he now fights. And continue with the medicines for anemia. and retest in 2 weeks.
SIGH. :(
