 |  |  |  | Thanks Purrcy! I forgot about giving the pepcid 30 minutes before she eats. Let it have time to coat the system first. Also, I would only give a little bit of food at a time. Like Purrcy said, if she's been having a hard time keeping it down and her stomach may have shrunk from not eating, it will take awhile to get her back to a condition where she's not nauseas or feeling yucky! she may be so hungry, she may be eating too fast. That ticks me off about the vet. Is there another vet in your area you could call? And yes, they should have done blood work. I had misunderstood, I thought they already did that! There could be a lot of other things going on that the blood work would show. What you could also do is try putting the food in the blender with a little bit of water, like maybe not quite 1/4 of a cup and making it even more pate than it is. This will enable her to digest it better for a bit. I'm worried about her liver values with the description of her vomit and what's going on. If she went too long without eating, her liver could be enflamed. Purrcy and I both know about that very well so I think he may agree it's concerning and something the vet should have taken into account. If she gets any worse tonight, I'd get her to the ER. If she seems like she's not too much worse, try in the morning to contact another vet or get back to that one and tell them that she needs to be seen PRONTO! Sheesh! I would absolutely try and use an eye dropper or medicine syringe and give her some extra water. She sounds like she's dehydrated to me and taht's going to affect how she digests her food and keeps it down. Oh my goodness. I'm so glad you found her and took her in, bless your heart for this. she's going to need you! |  |  |  |  |
