That is so weird. I loaded these pictures while I was at work and they were HUGE, but now that I'm home, they are the right size.![]()
Yeah, so apparently he's not eating his dinner again. But I think he's just being a picky boy. Because he eventually ate it at some point in the night and he ate his breakfast this morning. Little Stinker!!
I will definitely be keeping a close eye on his eating, pottying and just in general to make sure all is well.
Thanks again for everyone's responses.![]()
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

Not to sound too concerned, but I'd make an appointment at the vet's. If Taz continues NOT to eat, he may develop hepatic lipidosis(a fatty liver). It can be fatal. We lost a cat in December to mild hepatic lipidosis. Nicholas stopped eating. We took him to the vet and his liver enzymes were thru the roof. He was jaundiced. And then he was gone, it all happened so fast. It is far better to err on the side of caution, I'd go to the vet.....

I was in a similar situation with Taz, as I think I stated before, about a couple years ago. He had stopped eating all together and lost 5 lbs QUICKLY. I really thought he wouldn't make it, but, thank god, he did.Originally Posted by kb2yjx
This time I was more concerned and was asking about the fact that he was eating like a horse for a few weeks then one night just didn't want to eat. But he has been eating "enough" these past few days. It goes back and forth - he'll eat ALL his breakfast then only a bit of dinner. Or he'll eat dinner and only some of his breakfast.
So the fact that he is eating, just not as much as "normal", that's okay, right? For sure if he completely stopped, he'd be at the vets right away.
I guess I'll have to break down and weigh him tonight if I can't get Bruce to do it for me. That way I can keep track of his weight.
Thank you for your response though. I'm sorry you lost your Nicholas. I will definitely keep a close eye on him. Maybe I'll even move his appointment sooner if I can.
ETA: I just called and made an appointment for next Tuesday. He can get his shots at that time too.![]()

Taz, you are such a handsome boy! You stripes are VERY dark, way darker than I thought( I love darker striped kitties)! Just as Handsome as can be !
I am glad that he is gonna see a vet. If nothing is wrong, GREAT! If there is something, well atleast you caught it fast. I will continue to look for updates!
Thank you so much Michelle!![]()
Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!
I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!
Cindy, I reviewed my notes on Nicholas(we had 9 cats, and it was easier to keep track of things if I wrote about each cat. I use the composition notebooks(trust me, it is a nurse thing)). He was doing the same thing, eating a little then not eating. I know you will keep a close watch on your Taz! Sandra
