From here too.

I think it was Pouncer - or some other PT cat - who still wasn't quite right after getting over the worst of something similar to what Kiri had...and a shot or two of Vitamin B12 really seemed to help.

If you haven't talked to your vet yet, that might be an idea.

It's all I can think of at the moment...prayers and good thoughts continuing!

This is my first time on here---so sorry, but I'll add extra prayers to make up for it all--I know how it is to fight kidney disease in a kitty. Keep it up--we'll keep up the prayers on our ends since that's all we can do. Kiri, we know you can do---she needs you. Yvonne

Warming up her food makes it smellier too. Try adding a bit of Kitty Kaviar or other bonito flakes and warming it up - if she can't smell that I'll be surprised!

Love, Columbine

Have you tried holding something really stinky to her nose? Even a can of Fancy Feast might stimulate her! Junk food I know, but just to get her eating.

If you have a small steamer (add Vicks), maybe put her in the bathroom for a bit and steam up the room, or even with a hot shower running.

Eucalyptus oil...tea tree oil...just thinking of things that would get through her nostrils!

I'm so sorry to hear that Kiri is still not eating on her own.

Catty1, it was my Starr that had the vitamin B-12 shot and this really perked him up. I don't know if this would help Kiri but it might be worth a try.

Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

Kiri is back at the vet's--not the same vet as before, but one near my house. She was getting dehydrated again. Still no clue what's really wrong with her.

I don't want to give up on her, but I worry about whether she's trying to let go by not eating or drinking. She hasn't been trying to get away and hide--she's spent most of the last few days on my lap. So I don't know what she's trying to tell me.
