Hang in there. About 5 years ago, Mac had a severe reaction to Hartz Flea Meds. Both of my cats suddenly got terribly infested with fleas over a holiday weekend and my vet's office was closed. After giving him the meds on Saturday afternoon,Mac didn't eat or drink for 2 days, so I took him to the emergency vet. Well, they hydrated him and on Tuesday I took him to our vet. He showed no improvement, so they had me take him to a specialist 20 miles away. They wanted to put a feeding tube in him and do exploratory surgery, to the cost of over $2,000! He had now gone over a week without eating anythingand I thought I could force-feed him as well as they could, so Iasked them for some large syringes, two cans of A/D, and some liquid antibiotics. Well, it took about 36 hours of force feeding and hydrating, I know all about wearing the leftovers, and suddenly, Mac went over to his food dish and began to eat some dry food. He never looked back and he is now and older gentleman cat whom I treasure every day! Just keep up the syringe feeding and try giving Allie maybe one-third of the antibiotic if you feel you must. I bet she will be eating on her own by Tuesday night! Remember, you have to get their stomachs used to food again and that takes a few days. I am praying for your pretty girl!
