    Try room temperature Gerber's baby food (turkey or chicken, no beef) in small amounts and cooked elbow macaroni. It's what my old vet prescribed for Puddy when I first got her because she had a sensitive tummy and it worked. She chewed on that macaroni and licked up the baby food. I kept her on it for a couple of months actually. If you try it, please let us know how she does.

    Blessings,
    Mary

    Gerber baby food is a wonderful food choice for kittens. I used it when fostering the five 3 week old babies I had and they will grow very well with it. I actually used it along with KMR and they thrived. I would suggest giving it a try.

    I PM'd her last night, and she said that the one test Lilly had NOT had was x-rays, and she will ask about them.

    If Lilly has a blockage or a twisted intestine, that might be causing problems.

    The baby food sounds great...Lilly has kept SOME bits of things down, so maybe this will help!

    Prayers for little Lilly!

    I'm so sorry to hear this. I sure hope that the vet will be able to find out what's causing her problems. Like the others have mentioned, you may want to get a second opinion. She'll continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

    Oh, poor Lily. I sure hope you get to the bottom of this. You should try the baby food idea or the raw diet even, it is worth a shot. Good luck and please keep us posted.

    Thanks for the replys.

    She actually got into the cat food...and kept what she ate down. She does, however, have an appointment for Monday with my regular vet (I took her to the "cat" vet..dont like him too much i don't think) so he can tell me what he thinks. If she vomits any more I will get some baby food...good idea!
