Great news about Simon

[Catty1]

Try grain-free food. It has helped many kitties. Even vet food has grain in it.

See if your pet store has some samples of Innova Evo or another grain-free food. Some cats are allergic to grains!

Good luck and prayers for dear Simon! Bless you for not giving up on him.

I think Catty1 is probably right. That sounds like it could be an allergy. Please keep us posted!

Love, Columbine

I'll never give up on him but I fear his liver will give out with not eating and going into fasts like he does. He did eat a little canned tuna today. I know it's not good for him but at this point whatever he wants to eat is ok with me.

I wish he liked more human food so he will at least eat something.

Did you read the last two posts, Janelle? Go to a pet store and get some grain-free food and try that on him.

[janelle]

Yes, I did, and amazingly he likes it. PETCO has CORE and I got that, they didn't have the other.

I also upped his meds to 3 times a day---the max I can give him. He is keeping it down.

Right now he is trying to keep me from whistling. He jumped up and put his body over my mouth to stifle me. LOL He always comes when I whistle so I do have a good way of finding him but he also doesn't like me to do it. LOL

Sorry for not posting earlier.

SO glad to hear this! Has Simon been on it long enough for you to tell if it is helping his fur-pulling?

Hugs and prayers for Simon! You is a GOOD meowmie!

[janelle]

No I don't think I will know if he stops pulling until the hair starts to grow back in. Only time will tell on that.

I really don't care if he needs to do that if it easies his anxiety or whatever just as long as he starts to gain weight, which he should if he keeps his food down. Thanks so much.
