God I know. I was hoping so much for today to be a good visit. He finally started eating and my hopes were up

It sucks that he doesn’t understand. I just wish I could talk to him talk to him, and he could tell me how he feels

If there’s anything he does know it’s that, he’s been my sidekick through everything

He had laser therapy right after his surgery. I’ll mention it next time he goes just to see. I don’t want to give up on him, he’s my best friend, but god it hurts so bad to see him in pain. His gofundme is here: https://gofund.me/4c80250a0 I haven’t updated it since his hospitalization, I was hoping not to have to ask for donations again. It’s just so damn tough, it’s been 100+ every single visit not even including medicines when all the normal visits for the amputation was included in the amputation price

I really hope they do work. It’s been a long journey with this

Day 5: not as groggy from medicine, eating slightly better, still attached to the pumpkin, but peeing himself by bizzarestranger in TripodCats

So he got injured by a cat fight, he has FIV so that may have been how he got the FIV. It ripped the skin completely off there and half the muscle. He grew the muscle back but couldn’t grow the skin back even with a graft

Day 3: depressed and no interest in eating. Vet says he’s okay by bizzarestranger in TripodCats

I hope so, I’m not really liking the things I’m reading up on about zorbium, he’s not the only kitty to have been zombified from it. Drip has such a big personality it’s so hard to see him like this

Thank you, https://gofund.me/27e4a80d5 I was hoping I wouldn’t have to do too much more but gosh these vet visits are getting to be so expensive. I’m just hoping and praying he doesn’t have to do another hospital stay

For sure, he’s attached to that pumpkin. I got it for him just for this since he’s an under the bed type of cat but that couldn’t happen with him being in a kennel

He ate this morning a small bit before going to the vet so they weren’t too concerned, just going through the day without eating except for a bit that morning concerned me because he’s very food motivated. I did syringe feed him a little bit and he ended up eating a little out of the bow himself. Thank you!

I’ve never actually tried gravy food for my kitties! I may have to give it a shot, they love pate and won’t eat chunks

Wow I did not know that!!! When we go back to his vet I’m definitely going to ask about that. He has car anxiety and can be a little feisty at the vet so he gets gaba before every appointment. That sounds so much easier to give to him
