Jan I have even tried the chicken baby food, but if I have to resort to forcing by syringe, I certainly will!Originally posted by QueenScoopalot
Kim, A/D is a wet food available at most vets offices. It's similar in consistancy to baby food, and slightly warmed up, most cats love it. Maybe get some syringes for dogs, and add a bit of water to A/D or even baby food, and force feed him to get something in him. Have you offered him stuff like boiled chicken, or meat baby food? If he's dehydrated he may feel less like eating as well. Sending prayers to you and Tucker that he'll perk up in a day or two.![]()
Lisa, and everyone else, thanks so much for the support and prayers. I did just read about the drug (Cyproheptadine) online... it is an ANTIHISTAMINE used for allergy, asthma in cats, and as an appetite stimulant in cats. No wonder he is sleeping under my bed!I feel a little more secure now, and hopeful again! What would I do without my PT friends .... nope, not even gonna THINK about that right now!
