[Felvtalk] Coco update

[Amani Oakley]

The Convenia should help. Unfortunately, if he hasn’t started to source the Winstrol (unless he has used it before) it may take him some time to find it. Be insistent. Let me know what his answer is on Monday. I wish you were nearby. I would have no trouble helping you out. I have been where you are, more times than I can count.

She got the Convenia today.   I asked him about the Winstrol and am going back Monday.  Unfortunately tomorrow is Saturday.  I will get some baby food tomorrow (I don't have a car, so I have to wait for Michelle to drive me:()

If she is in the bathroom anyway, run the shower hot, and create a high steam environment. That will help with the URI. I have also used Vicks Vaporub to rub on their chests (yes – it’s messy on their fur, but the smell opens up their nasal passages very well, just like it does with kids). I would urge you not to wait on the Winstrol. This will help build up her strength and appetite, and will start working on the anemia very quickly. She is experiencing all these problems (URI and diarrhea) because she is run down and can not fight off infections, etc.) Ask your vet if he can give a long lasting antibiotic shot like Convenia, so you don’t need to be giving even more orally. Also, I would use pureed baby food – chicken and beef. You can get this into her using a plastic syringe, or she may like it as most of my cats have always liked the taste and take it easily on their own, even if I have to start using syringes. It is easy to digest, full of protein, and a good consistency to syringe if necessary. But I can’t stress enough that you shouldn’t wait on the Winstrol.

My roommate was nice enough to sleep in the bathroom with her.  She woke me and told me we needed to take her to the vet.   She has URI.  She did not have nasal involvement yesterday but today she did.  She did eat 3/4 of a can of AD.  The vet is very concerned.  He did say he felt she was better off with us than in the hospital there as there is no one there at night. But he is very concerned.
