Today is day 14! So I’m calling it OTJ officially. Baby began having IBD issues & in an effort to help that, I switched her food. From friskies to ff, raw & feline naturals. I found that in changing just this small amount of carbs; it did the trick! She still is having some IBD problems but hooray for no more poking & shots. Thanks to everyone on this forum for all the help. I would have been so lost without FDMB! Special shout out to @Magic Johnson, @Sharon14 & @Bellasmom; who have offered so much help & encouragement along our journey!!
What wonderful news! Becky, this is just fantastic and give Baby Girl very big hugs from Idjit! Going forward, good luck with the IBD, and the new diet. What a great start to the day, thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your kind reply! I sure will give her extra hugs & tell her it’s from Idjit! I hope you all are doing fine, your ss says it all. Head bumps to Idjit & hooray for remission.
Becky, we were extremely fortunate. We didn't have to work for the remission, he just kind of slid in without effort, in spite of bumbling bean parents. The only things we did right was provide insulin, change his diet and learn to test, the rest was a train wreck! LOL I very much salute and admire every bean mom and dad that stays the course, cares enough and works hard to get the fur kid to remission.
You still had to learn all about it! It isn’t easy & it’s hard to do these things for our dearest friend! So yes you did all that Idjit needed & that’s more than a lot can say. I’m glad it only took you a little while. Yes today i feel blessed! Have a fantastic day!
Words can't Express how happy I am for u guys, party allllllll day, u guys deserve it, give BGK a big hug for me
Congratulations !!!! Becky how wonderful for you and Baby Girl Kitty! So excited for you guys!! My goodness!! Look at Baby’s numbers OMG! Absolutely fantastic!!!!
I wasn’t sure where to post this! Due to Baby’s IBD not getting any better with other measures; she was put on budesonide. But day 7 her bg began to rise. I just keep thinking of the saying here: A cat needs what a cat needs! On a positive note I am already seeing great results. Baby despises all of these pokes, proding & more medication. What’s a girl to do! We have been fighting this off & on since July... I’m hoping she won’t have to be on it forever but it may be. Thanks to all that cheered us on. Becky & Baby
Sorry Baby’s back on the juice, but I’m glad you’re seeing good results at the other end! Fingers and paws crossed she won’t need the budesonide forever and will be back OTJ before too long.
Hi Becky - baby needs what she needs and the fact that she’s responding so well to budesonide... is really great! Head bumps from Maji to Baby!!!!
@Magic Johnson - And Baby gives Magic head rubs & a gentle bump! Thank you for always being so positive!
@Sharon14 Thank you Sharon! It’s amazing how excited I get over formed poos! lol It’s making her appetite go crazy! If I keep this up, her belly will be dragging the floor. She needed to regain a little; but I have to start regulating it...
