Well I gave Anika her anitbotic tonight and it went ok, the first time I stuck her she cried, so I took it out and restarted and that worked better. Right now she's just lying the bedroom but she was out more this evening I think.
I just hope she does improve.
Thank you all again so much for your hard prays and thoughts,
Melissa
I know you said you tried tuna before, but how about what I call "Tuna Soup"? It used to work when I had kitties that wouldn't eat. Take some chunk light tuna packed in water and mash it up real good (don't leave any chunks) and add enough warm water to make it the consistance of gravy - not too thick yet not too thin.It might be worth a try since she doesn't seem to want anything else. Good luck!
Come on Anika - please eat for your Mom!
This morning I gave Anika her other shot, this time it went better but I'm still so nervous doing it.
It seemed a lot easier at the vets.
I had to force feed her some more A/D food and she will keep that down at least.
But the weird thing is last night I tried to give her some milk by a syringe and she started to foam it back up again, almost like she didn't want to swallow it and just wanted to spit it up so I tried some water and the same thing happened.
I'm not sure how I'm going to get fluids in her but I'm leaving work early today so I'll be better to monitor her drinking today and the rest of this weekend and see if she picks up eatting, if she doesn't an ultrasound will be scheduled.
My poor girl. I just hope these meds help her since we are now able to get them in her.
We're going to think positive and pray easy that the meds will work for Anika and that she'll be back to normal in no time. Extra prayers being sent for you, Melissa.
Blessings,
Mary

Goodness dear Anika! You really need to eat and drink and get better! This has been going on way too long, and you are worrying your meowmy sick!
Please eat something, drink something, and keep on doing it and get much better!
She IS keeping her food down...in a PM to me, you said you did see her drinking on her own after the syringe incident.
If this is going to help, it should really be showing by tomorrow, I would think.
PT Prayers for Anika kitty.
Sweet faced baby.
