Getting Stella to eat

DSCF0683.JPGGetting Stella to eat is not an easy task. This weekend she didn’t want to eat much of anything. I’m not sure what to do. She is drinking well, but she doesn’t want to touch the wet kitten food, her Fromm dry food, Ambush’s food, the tuna cat food from Trader Joe’s, or the other various things I’ve tried. She hasn’t touched anything that I’ve seen since Saturday.

She’s tried to eat Ranch veggie dip (not good) and has eaten a little bit of lunch meat. That’s it. We will see what she’ll eat tonight. I’m going to pick up another flavor of the Fromm dry food and see if that helps. Maybe I’ll cook some eggs, lamb, and rice for her tonight.

I know she has lost weight again. Just when we finally broke through the 5 pound mark last week. For Stella, losing a few ounces is a big thing. I’m not sure what to do.

We have a vet appointment tomorrow for fluids. If Stella hasn’t eaten by then, we’ll see what they say.

    Kiesha had a urinary tract infection. She has been on Clavamox (antibiotic) for a few days and is not doing well on them. She keeps throwing up. Poor kitty. She’s being switched to an injectable antibiotic. Hopefully this time it will help… Ambush and Stella both seem to be doing better. Their UTIs have passed…
