Mystic's roller coaster ride

[katladyd]

Have you tried some tuna? That usually gets them eating. Still praying for Mystic. Get better okay? You're a very special kitty.

Come on, Mystic, you can do it!!! Take a bite or two, sweetie.

Lots of prayers and good thoughts going up for Mystic!

I am almost afraid to ask. I hope you all had a good night last nigh. Let us know. I hope you were able to sleep.

Fingers and paws crossed.

We had a great night! He spent the night curled up in my arms like usual. I woke to a fair amount of pee dribble on the sheets (yay! that means his not clotting again!) I'll have to remember to put down towels tonight

He wants to be out and watch what is going on. He's alert and interested in what the others are doing; he simply doesn't want to get involved. The first time he runs into the fray is when I know he's back to normal.

He still has zero interest in food. Not even the normal stuff. How do you force feed a cat?

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I know these PT prayers are working their magic.

You might have to get some KMR to see if he will take that.

Glad he's feeling better.

Mystic, you ROCK! Keep on keeping on!

More prayers for you all.

Great news! Praying that he eats a bit today.

If he heals well enough, maybe your vet will try a light appetite stimulant.

Prayers that you get well soon, Mystic. Hugs and kisses for you too,

I was so worried yesterday when I signed in and didn't see an update about Mystic (I guess I was just a little to earlier). I am very glad that he is at home, you are right, sometimes that is the best medicine.

You can force feed him using food that has been diluted down to a slurry and then use an oral syringe to feed him. (Similar to if you are hand raising kittens)

Some people have used baby food and found that their cats will eat it (unfortunately that trick doesn't work in my household )

I will be thinking of you and Mystic and hoping he will continue to get better

Wow, isn't this encouraging?

What about canned salmon? Yummy taste, good and smelly to activate the saliva glands etc. Just a thought.

I thought of you and Mystic first thing this morning, but being Sunday, other stuff took precedent over the computer. Happy to see the update!

Don't you wish they had kitty diapers? LOL Wonder why he won't use the box!

My Vet says the same thing, that Our Ctas are a ot better being at home wherethey fee comfotable and know where they are and have all thier Friends there.
We are praying even hrader for for Mystic that Our All Loving Lord God above will give you more time together.

Yay! I hope the good news continues. It sounds like Mystic is a fighter and still wants to be here. That's more than half the battle.

You might take a spoonfull of food and nuke it in the microwave for a few seconds. I've heard that warming the food brings out more aroma. Also, when Halo was near the end, we brought home some Chicken McNuggets. She went nuts over the smell. *Maybe because they were hot?) I took off most of the breading and and she ate a couple.

I'm so pleased that Mystic is still fighting and your vet is still hopefull.

So good to read the positive reports!!! I'm thrilled he is doing better.

HUGS to you and to Mystic!!

[momcat]

Many prayers are being prayed for Mystic and for you too!

[catnapper]

He's eating!!!! He still refuses the prescription stuff, so I slurry it and stuff the syringe in his mouth despite his obvious annoyance. But when I fed the others, he went to his spot and waited for his food to be dished out - and he's eating it. I'm SO doing a happy dance right now.

I still am worried because his tummy is still painful and he cries if pressure is applied, He's still peeing himself during naps, and he naps 99% of the time. He also started sneezing this morning. Its not a chronic sneeze, just once in a while thing.

But he is grooming himself (the vet tech said that's a good sign today --- tell you how amazing my vet clinic is: the tech came into my work today to ask about him)

He's more active than he has been. He's currently up top of the dresser watching down on everyone in the room.

He begs to be out and about with the others. I will allow him out when we're in the room to watch him like hawks. Then back to isolation when neither of us can babysit him.
