have you tried the Zentonil? Vet UK has it loads cheaper than the vets. It def helped with appetite here.

Theres marginal tuna in whiskas, she hasnt thrown any up yet so it must be agreeing with her  ;D
At the moment we havnt addressed the best type of diet, just need to get any kind of food into her tummy, she has lost more weight so we have over the weekend for the steroids to boost her appetite or it will be time to consider a feeding tube  :scared: :(

the RC SO28 wet version is a sort of glue type pate btw.
Yuk, doesnt sound very yummy  :sick:

for what it's worth, I was told to avoid tuna when Swampy's ALT was sky high as it's too greasy. I was told bland (he ate L/d bless him for a whole year). Would she eat k/d as that's the next best for livers? the RC SO28 wet version is a sort of glue type pate btw. The dry food is the one that sells tons.

Is it chunks or pate?..... She probably wont eat it, very difficult getting anything wet into her, whiskas tuna individual pouches are so far comming up trumps even tho she didnt like them before she got ill  :innocent:

Its check up day tomoro  :scared: not sure what will be happening as the extra meds havnt made any change to her.

Its not one id seen before getting the sample, i tried it out of desperation and voila she ate some so im impressed with it  :wow: Is the wet version of it as good?
Rc outdoor mature is also managing to tempt her, certainly keeping me on my toes.

Mine wouldn't touch the wet version unfortunately. Yes it made me laugh -it's well hidden here on the vet uk website (I had to email them to ask where it was on their site) but anyhow ze millions of french oldies can't be too wrong (they like their food in France!)  ;)  Hope she keeps eating well.

I got some free samples of that from my vets last year, they liked it, but no meat content, so I wouldn't buy it. Glad she is eating.

She seems brighter today, still not eating much but her face doesnt look so heavy  :)

I have a sample of RC early care range, kidney and osteo which she quite likes  :innocent: {link removed to supplier as they have let down rescue cats and Purrs will not support them} it seems to be very tasty by the reactions to it which is unusual for a senior food

She wasnt pleased to go back  :evillaugh: shes now got preds and marbocyl and back again on thurs for another check up. She hasnt lost weight since iv had her home so the vet is quite pleased, im to top her up twice daily, using RC Recovery at the moment, smells like chicken soup when you put warm water in it  :sick:

Thanks for all the vibes  :thanks:

She ate quite well this morning so i didnt give the periactin (vn said if she eats without it dont give it) throughout the day she has nibbled at what my mum has offered her so wasnt doing too badly. I got back from work and gave her ab and noticed the roof of her mouth, she is now becomming jaundiced  :(
Vets now says give periactin and straight to vets in the morning so i have gone with their advice over the vn's  :-:

Theres chicken in the oven which i hope will tempt her, if not il syringe feed tonight

MM sorry I have only just caught up with this thread, having to stay off comp as much as poss at moment.  I am so so sorry to hear about poor little Milly.  I am glad she is home with you and hopefully, by now, is eating.  Hope the meds kick in and she soon feels very much better big hugs to you both  :hug: :hug: :hug:

sounds like she's feeling a bit sick still, poor Milly. What did the vet say about Zentonil btw? I think it helps with eating (a bit).

Milly is home but not the same Milly  :(
Shes only nibbling at food despite having appetite stimulants and is sleeping alot. Its 48hrs since starting her antibiotics so im hoping they kick in and make her feel better soon. Im used to her exerting authority and i have no one to take me to the loo  :(
She has bald bits all over  :Luv2:

Fingers crossed she makes a full recovery - that ALT is really high, higher than any of the boys here!! Snowy had cholangiohepatitis, but we couldnt get meds into her - hers was diagnosed purely through bloods, but there was some positive stuff on FAB about recovery, she was just awkward and wouldnt take the meds - she was also a lot older than Milly though, and had had raised liver enzymes for 10 months at least.
