Just got back from a morning fasting blood draw, and Dr. Brookenthal has Tiggy back down to his beginning insulin intake. He had an all-day draw...
I thought you all might appreciate this link. It's a 2003 study done by researchers at UC Davis on the taurine content of common protein foods for...
It's working. Fingers crossed!
It's a lot. So far I've been blessed in always coming up with what I need, but oh Lord, I hope I can have a steady job and get off EBT, and have...
Thank you! I have a job interview on Monday and I'm doing a bit of grant stuff, so hopefully things will turn around soon. I'm just a bit...
If he's like my cat, he might be interested in very savory/umami things, like tuna, or even 'cat curry' which is roast chicken with a little bit of...
*hugs*
Yeah, hopefully the higher doses of insulin and the Mirtazapine kick in and he eats. So far he seems to want spices and stinky/super umami flavors,...
Great, I'll get some. Since he likes kibbles so much I'll also get him those Nature RAWBoost gross little freeze dried meat nuggets. They're pure...
Tiggs has been booped. He's now sacked out in a patch of sunlight on my bed, looking comfy. Thank you.
It's awful. Being a young, broke, slightly bonkers millennial is enough of a pain without your pet and companion being ill. At least he's doing...
Thank god there's some sort of actual research. Not to be...sadness boastful(?) (there is probably an excellent word in German or Russian for this.)...
Tiggs usually eats grain free kibbles, but he's not even interested in those. He also used to wolf down bits of chicken or jerky or what have you,...
I'll get some baby food and bonito flakes asap! God, I worry so much. He was only diagnosed two weeks ago but he's lost a pound and a half in that...
Any ideas? He's got high quality canned food and all the roast chicken he can eat, plus some elk meat our roommate's dad gifted us. He's down to 10...
Thank you!
The vet had started him on antibiotics as a precaution before we took him in, he tested clean at the first visit, but I'll ask. I'm going to try baby...
Okay, I'll get the testing stuff ASAP and call the vet
Thank you. I'm also going to get some high calorie additives. I'm thinking unflavored gelatin and chicken broth, which I can add to the egg, oil, and...
All right, how does one collect such a urine sample, and where do you get sticks? He doesn't seem hungry or interested. He eats a few bites and...
