    Blood results are back!

    They only ran a CBC (not an entire workup) but his Hematocrit and Red cell count numbers are BETTER!!! WOO HOOOOOOO!! I guess sticking with the medicines (and the many prayers) are paying off! THANK YOU!

    That is great news about his blood results!! I hope that he starts to eat more soon. Have you tried to give him the 9Lives tuna? My cats go mental for it.
    I know you said he prefers his crunchies but this food seems to attract every single one of my cats. Usually only some of them enjoy what I'm dishing up while others turn their noses up and wander off.

    I'm so glad to hear that his bloodwork results came back better. Hopefully he'll begin to eat more and be able to gain some weight. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

    Come on, Brave Baby! Start eating! Great news on the bloodwork - anything on the kidney levels?

    HUGS to Charlie's boy! LOL

    A couple I know volunteer for our Humane Society and have failed fostering several times! She bottled raised a wee kitten - and now the grown kitty is Daddy's girl! Go figure...

    Awwww, sweets. You are so thin. Please try to eat a LOT more, k? Thx! Jenn, is there anything you can do for a kitty who's not "into" food, to boost his appetite? I'll keep praying. BraveHeart, please, please try to get some food in your tummy.

    So sweet to see your beautiful new picture, BraveHeart.

    We all continue to say our prayers.

    Love, hugs, and purrs,

    I may have discovered a weakness of his.........PEOPLE FOOD!

    He was pesting for some pizza, and would not take NO for an answer. But I worry that his tummy might get upset, so we only gave him small amounts.

    Next......deli turkey! Why did I not try this earlier??? (I guess because I've got cat hair for brains, sometimes) Well, I guess he'll be getting his fill of turkey for as long as he wants it.

    So, what else might he like that would not upset his delicate tummy??
