Any Vets or cat lovers out there?
My little buddy of 14 years, Frisbee The Cat, has stopped eating. He has lost a lot of weight. I had him to his regular vet around 3 months for a routine check up. Everything was fine except he was too fat, as usual, and the vet said he had a bad tooth that had to come out.
Now, everytime we see this guy something is wrong. Frisbee was on special food that can only be bought at the Vet. Pills for his over active thyroid. Even though he was fat.
When Frisbee stopped eating about a month ago we thought it must be the teeth. But I didn't trust this vet so we took him to another one. This one looked him over, and said everything looked good. I asked about his teeth and she said his teeth are fine. She suggested Pedic AC with his food.
We did that and he kind of came back. He was eating every other day but had gotten his strength back.
Monday he stopped eating again. I took him to Angel Memorial Hospital with the though of putting him to sleep. But the doctor there said he had a urinary tract infect. And he was dehydrated. And his teeth are fine. She gave me an anti biotic and and IV to give him every night, an appetite enhancer and special food for cats that don't eat.
Tonight I am thinking of taking him back to put him to sleep. He has not made any progress.
Any one have any experience with this?
