I'm sorry to hear this. I sure hope that whatever is causing this can be easily treated. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

The ENPA vet just called us and we have to bring Frost in there in about 35 minutes. I am trying to get dressed & type this at the the same time. Kinda hard typing with one hand and pulling up your pants with the other. Will update when we get back. Keep all fingers, toes, tails, paws, whiskers and everything else crossed for us that this is nothing serious and can be fixed so my little boy can feel good again. Thanks guys.

I´m no cat expert but it does sounds as obstruction... the trying to vomit with no luck then the stop eating..

if he hasn´t ate anything weird.. it might be what you think a very persistent furball

hope the vet can determine what it is and help him.. best of luck.. will be waiting when you come back

There is no obstruction of any kind anywhere. Intestines, bowel are clear, stomach is empty, bladder is empty. He was dehydrated. Vet says there are only 2 possibilities and they are renal issues (he has very small kidneys) and liver. I can't remember the name he said in Italian. The liver thing is basically he is having problems of processing the fat and it is over working the liver. Won't know that for a few days. He said also it could very well be a stomach bug. So Frost is on 5 days of anti-vomit meds, 5 days of fluids & antibiotics. He bit me twice while getting his injections and fought like a monster too. He actually tore away from both me & the vet and pulled out the butterfly needle with the sub-q's. He is resting behind the door being pissed at the world. Promise to keep you all updated on my little blue monster.

I sure hope that whatever it is that he'll feel better soon. Maybe he might also need a diet change. He may have a very sensitive tummy. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

Hi everyone,

So last night we got through our first forced feeding and sub-q fluid treatment. Just after he had his sub-q fluids he went to the water dish and decided to have a drink. Since then he has drank atleast 4 times that I have seen. This morning he had his first snack on his own. He ate about 20 or so kibble. He is due for his antibiotic shot in about 30 minutes & his another sub-q treatment. I think he will be fighting me A LOT on those. He is quite active today and even wanted to greet his doggie friends that live upstairs. They come to our door and as soon as he sees their shadow he scratches on the door for me to let them in. Which is exactly what he did this morning He is giving me headbumps and he just finished a second snack & his first peepee while I was typing this. So far so good. We have 5 days of antibiotics to do so we are hoping for a steady improvement. Keep everything crossed and keep those good thoughts & healing vibes coming.
