At the End of My Rope

[mrspunkysmom]

I am at a loss. Is anyone giving him anything else? Did something stressful happen? This could be temporary this time.

Has his vet checked him for infections?

I'm fostering a cat that cannot tolerate chicken. She eats fish. She nibbled on some albacore tonight. Not much, but it was a start. Now I need to find a way to give her some vitamins. She needs lots of attention but doesn't like other kitties. sigh

Cats are such complex creatures. It sounds like he needs constant reassurance after 4 years in a garage.

Good luck.

I have a couple of guys that have this issue, so I understand how frustrating this can be. (And yes my guys are on rice and chicken) But I also add some canned pumpkin and that usually takes care of things, with the side benefit of reducing hair balls in everyone

If he won't eat the pumpkin, you can always try a baked sweet potato or yam (which also does the trick).

You might need to keep him on a low-dose prednisolone to keep things under control. (It looks like I will have to do that for one of my guys ...)
