Re: Tempting a cat to eat?


good to hear his levels are going down and that he ate a little of the jelly . I could be wrong but i think he will be getting what he needs from the drip.

Re: Tempting a cat to eat?


Hi all, more better news this morning.

Oscar's urea is 43 from 51, and cretinine is 767 from 800. He also ate some food! Not his medicated renal food, but food all the same.

He's going to be staying in over the weekend, but wont have any more blood tests untill Monday. The vet didn't think they'd be necessary, as his treatment would be the same no matter what his levels. We're hoping that if they fall at the rate shown over this past week, his urea should be around 20 on Monday and we can discuss whether or not he can come home

I'll be calling for updates over the weekend, will hopefully get over to visit him tonight or tomorrow, and will continue to update this thread.

Thanks to everyone for your positive thoughts, as we've quite a way to go yet!

That's good news for Oscar - hope his levels continue to fall and that he can come home very soon. Loads more healing vibes from me, please give Oscar a wee chin tickle from me when you see him.

Re: Tempting a cat to eat?


Its a long road to travel but all going in the right direction. Always better that he eats something than nothing at all.
Continuing good wishes xxx

Re: Tempting a cat to eat?


Hi everyone, just an update for the weekend.

Oscar's been eating with some persuasion and coaxing, but he hasn't been as bright today as he has been. Hopefully it'll just be a down day for him, but there'll be another blood test tomorrow and I'll be over to visit him again tomorrow night.

I'm really missing him, and my other cat and dog havn't known what to do with themselves. Have to take it a day at a time I suppose.
