Thanks everyone for your comments and sending positive thoughts our way. The last few months have been frustrating to say the least.

Jen, Nakita has been on the prescription duck and rice for the last month with no change. I do know that many times food allergies don't respond for at least 8-12 weeks so that is why I want to change her food to rabbit and pea now (just in case rice is an allergy for Nakita as well). Changing her litter just came to me recently since I remembered we changed her litter last fall to Swheat Scoop. If she does improve, I can easily reintroduce the litter at a later date to determine if it's the litter.

I've been reading and researching about raw food and homemade diets for at least a year now. Ever since Nakita started showing her hyperesthesia symptoms I've been looking at changing her food. For sure I will consider that option if nothing else works. But I'd rather rule every other factor out first before getting into a raw diet since Nakita prefers dry food over wet. I tried moving her from a dry diet over to a wet/canned diet last summer with miserable results.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be sure to look her up when I'm ready to go through with the testing.

I'm hoping we can solve this mystery soon. I'm just glad she's back to eating the food since she was refusing the first food prescription trials. Nakita is such a small girl I always get worried when her health is affected. She's small enough as it is that she couldn't afford to lose any weight.
