Do these blood results warrant any worries? The Eosophils could be inflated because he has eaten fish which is a new thing for kitty. The 1st 3 were the the only high values. I'm still having a hard time getting him regulated, but the 2U have made a difference in the numbers during daylight hours. Any suggestions?

Since you did not provide the normal ranges, it is hard to tell how high above the normal band the values are. Looking at some results I have they do not not see to be much above the normal. Since the HTC is a little high for an older cat, the high values could bne due to some dehydration.
 
The normal values are in parathesis. My kitty is 11 1/2. He is on ProZinc 2u 2x day.

I would raise the dose by .25 or .5. He may be a candidate for a higher dose in the pm and a lower one in the am to balance out the preshot numbers. I would post on PZI again and get advice about how to do that.
 
I woul dnot be concerned out the MCHC and HGB 1since they are only slightly high. High EOS are frequently due to an allergic reaction and the fish could have caused that.
