Stella eating more

Finally. Stella had her fluids on Friday and then didn’t eat much… but today she started eating again. (Yay!) A friend of mine at Phydeaux pet store suggested a trial size of Call of the Wild no-grain cat food.

Stella’s pickiness has rubbed off on Ambush. For the first time ever, Ambush is refusing to eat his dry food. He prefers Stella’s Fromm to his own Indigo Moon. He even snubbed a new bag. Ambush only wants to eat the Fromm and now the Call of the Wild.

I’ve also picked up a bag of the Innova EVO the cats were on a few years ago. He will eat that a little (so will Stella). They will end up with a mixture of the Call of the Wild and the Innova EVO. Maybe that will work…

    I stayed home with Kiesha on Monday. After Sunday evening, I was worried about her. She still was not eating, although she did lap up liquid from some wet food. My regular vet was unavailable, so I made an appointment for 10:00 on Tuesday morning. I did take her in for fluids on Monday afternoon…

  • Bouncin’ with Basette

    Basette could drive someone (like her caretaker or vet) to being giddy and depressed on alternating days. For a while after the antibiotic treatment with Clavamox, she responded well to the insulin. Little by little, however, her glucose levels crept back up and over 500. It has seemed like every option has only provided a…

  • On shakey ground

    Basette isn’t doing well tonight. For several minutes, she couldn’t stand up. Whenever she tried to, her back legs gave out and she collapsed on the floor. She sat there for several minutes, unmoving, tail flicking unhappily. I picked her up, and comforted her. She fidgeted to be let down, so I carefully placed her…
