My goodness, that’s a fascinating blog. Thanks much.
Whitey seems to be doing OK although she is a very picky eater and when cats are not feeling up to snuff, it can be harder to see what they will eat. We had another cat back in 2002, Muffin, our Burmese cat, live 2.5 years with CRF. We had trouble finding out what she liked so the vet said to try baby food to get her to eat and put calories into her and we are doing the same with Whitey. Whitey ate quite a bit of the food. After we give her the IV, she sleeps a lot since she doesn’t like it and it tends to disrupt the routine as the vet said so we let her sleep and rest. The next day, she is up and eats a lot more. She still walks a little slow, but she’s been through a lot. She only thew up a couple of times but they were hairballs. I’m cautiously optimistic here although we have to take it day by day.
