Come on. Stop taking pictures and feed me! |
Ella (aka Skinny Cat) is still skinny. Maybe skinnier. She seems to tolerate the prescription dry cat food that costs $30 for a 10 pound bag. But she still pukes and really only seems to be loosing more slowly. She just feels bony when i pet her. She won't take the medicine in any form. She is iffy about the canned cat food I have bought. I think that commercial foods have a ton of fillers. Two food culprits for cat allergies are corn and seafood products. Corn seems to be in everything.

Yummy.... |
I'm going to try an experiment. I'm going to supplement her diet with homemade cat food. Tonight I ground some cooked chicken (approx 1.5 cups) with some cooked oatmeal (.75 cups) and grated carrots (handful). She loves it. That's a good thing. My hope is that she will be able to digest it and maybe put a little bit of weight on. I know she needs nutrients that a cooked diet cannot provide, but maybe this will help. I don't think it will hurt her, given that the vet does not know what else to do. I honestly don't know what to do either. It's worth a shot anyway.

Darwin likes the cat food too. He just looks innocent. |
Poor kitty :(. Sophie has been puking the last couple of days also. Amazing how fast I can run find her when I hear that tell tale sound starting.
