Re: Patch isn't himself...


Thanks guys. Not too sure what to do now, he's been eating today - okay he turned his nose up at kitty food but has had some chicken and some tuna (lots of it infact, maybe too much?) and he's seeming a lot better in himself. If he goes down hill again we're def. gunna get him to the vet but he's seeming better at the moment. Thanks for all the great advice too, very helpful

Sounds like he is slowly getting over whatever it was Jane, the plainer food like chicken would certainly be easier to digest in his tummy.

Keep an eye on him and if you are at all concerned about him still, take him to the vet for a check up...

Re: Patch isn't himself...


Anyone have any ideas what would be good to feed him?? He's just had chicken so far really (only had a tiny bit of tuna) and we're worried that's not enough??

Steamed or boiled white fish is good for sensitive tums........

Re: Patch isn't himself...


glad Patch seems to be on the mend! It's so worrying when they don't want to eat isn't it?!

Yes as Mags said, white fish is very good for upset tummys, and it has a strong flavour/aroma which often tempts them to eat

Re: Patch isn't himself...


He's definately feeling better - keep your fingers crossed for us please guys He's eaten loads this morning (well, just a little bit more than he normally would in a morning) and was asking for more too Mum started talking to him, he looked at her than ran out of the house...I guess he's feeling better, much more like him so run away when you say his name (he's not scared, don't get the wrong idea, just isn't too keen on human contact)
