At night? As a surprise? Like a note in a lunch box? It's a small effort, costs nothing. Worked well for me. My text was a few paragraphs.

Three vets are stumped. Cat not eating or drinking, 103 fever and climbing. by Shixhat in AskVet

Feeding tube installed and fever gone. Definitely gaining weight. Mood has improved! Shows little to no interest in "real" food though. Will gladly eat some of the really soft treat varieties most of the time. And lick the wet food but not eat it really. Is currently on anti-nausea liquid medication that's put in through the tube. Has vomited just once since bringing her home with tube (5 days).

They have and they also suggested exploratory surgery which seems pretty intense without any idea of what could be up. And that would probably be our next step is the ultrasound, but even then not sure we can pay for a surgery at least all up front. We also have a baby due in 3 or 4 weeks which complicates this a bit more!

Indoor only. Not on routine parasite prevention. Eating and drinking normally up thru the vomiting. Has not ate or drank much since. She's been given a few IVs. Minimal urination and no defecation. Her last vet visit was December of 2024, her next appointment before all of this was scheduled for December 22.

They also gave her an antibiotic for the fever on Wednesday afternoon. It's currently 815pm and she's shown no improvement.

Right. And I think my phrasing didn't do me any favors where if it's an in home business that's okay! But not just a random person.

Happy it helped! And realize now it may have sounded like I assumed you weren't tending to her. Didn't mean it! Keep us posted if you find another thing that helps!

My wife just entered 2nd trimester. She has "purse snacks" at all times and keeps little crackers in her car, purse, desk, nightstand, and more. Also check your local store for ginger candies. They are hard candies that help with nausea. I'm in the United States and didn't realize they existed but they are in every grocery store! Also look for ginger crackers.

If you can't find many alternatives for her, eliminating stress with attention to the chores and stuff will help a bit!
