topcat3 & medusa,
that was my vet's corcern too, too high protien. but he said I could go ahead, try and give not as much as more than a large grape-size and give it twice a day. so I gave her one 'grape' mixed with A/D Hills wetfood. one plus about it, she ate about 3/4 more than the day before. (I got raw beef from trader joe's as noahsmommy suggested).
by few days, my star, everything (eyes, skin, furs & purrs) got better so I wanted to continue that, just slowly. then by 2nd week, strong enough to handle a bigger chunk ('two grapes' 2x/day still) of raw diet with light chopped veggies and her usual kibbles. when she was very her-self, I tried her meals without chunks as we didn't needed keeping up with, she ate on her own! I guess we use that to encourage her eating habits.
as of today, she hasn't had these chunks for a long time now and she's great as a new cat.
sorry if I have hjacked your thread, thought I'd share my miracle - but medusa, I absolutely understand if you wanted to follow dr. lee's opinions, I would do the same and mine told me I could try. I didn't think it'd hurt if they are made by naturals & you do it a bit by bit.
mary, you're puddy's meowmie and you know her more than I do, as she has 'other' problems, and I wish you the best on whatever you both think is best for your little girl puddy! I just hope and want her so much to feel way better, build a roller coaster that will never have to go down!
kisses on puddy's nosie and hugs from me for (((you))) .. keep us updated please! glad thanksgiva and party went good and you're having a big enjoyable break today.
best wishes!!
..gina & star

But Miss Finicky Puddy wouldn't eat it no matter what. Hey, whatever works for your kitties is what's best for them and you, no doubt about it. But at this point in time, I'm letting Dr. Lee call the shots unless it's something that would really go against my grain, although I'm hard pressed to figure out what that would be.
