We were upbeat after the Friday Vet visit but in the back oof our minds we knew she was getting weaker. Saturday night we really noticed that she was having problems . . . .escaping feeding time and she was throwing up hours after feeding. Then Sunday she was very week and it just seemed that she di...

Gabby pass over early this morning. She had been getting weaker progressively all weekend and last night after her feeding I knew she would not make the night. I could just tell. She was not in pain. Of the 3 cats she was the kindest and most gentle and my dogs best friend. My question to the forum ...

Took Gabby in Friday to the vet. Vet said she thought Gabby was improving but still needed more food and wants her to sooner or later max out at 300cc per day.

She threw up last night 5 hours after feeding which was odd. We're having a check up tomorrow (Friday) so we'll see if there is progress. She seems g...

Thanks Traci - we have found that after the 40cc I've been putting in 5 cc of water to clear the tube and this has not been sitting well. I'm not waiting 5-10 minutes and THEN adding the water - this seems to be working on the vomiting. It's only been 4 days but we're learning the tricks to make thi...

Thanks - I'm no longer "Guest" LOL. We went on vacation and Gabby was alone (but with good care) with 2 other cats, not friends but they were OK togather. However - her humans were gone along with her best friend Blake (dog). So far it's been OK with the tube - she does not seem to mind it...
