Hello Savvy Lovers; from NorCal :)

Sorte
Haha! yes same with Keljin. He could care less if I am dragging it. I have to flick it around in the air and imitate "da bird" toy to get him to jump and do flips for it. When he catches it out of the air, he plops down and starts rolling on the ground until the whole entire feather is twirled and tangled around his entire body!

Then I pet him and tell him "good boy" for catching his "prey" as he looks up at me from the ground all tangled up, and he starts purring cuz he is soooo proud <3

That sounds EXACTLY like Sorte! LOL! Jump, catch, plop, roll, repeat. :)

Well, I'll have to retract my statement about Sorte doing well. :( He has just started having runny stool with small spots of blood once again after a week of being fine (fine being just soft stool with no leaking or blood in the stool). He is now leaking around the house once again also. I just posted a new thread asking about Panacur causing this issue...

Sorry to read about Sorte not feel well, poor guy! I caught giardia in Mexico this year and I'm on antibiotics for it, ugggg! I'm doing better, but it was horrible!! So now I can image how cats feel with it. It has to be so much worse.
I hope it gets better soon!!!!

He is on his last week of medication, along with an all chicken diet for the last week and a half. He eats an average of 4 chicken thighs/breast a day! He just had his first stool in a week, yesterday. It was mostly solid with a little runny at the end followed by a bit of leaking, no blood spots though. He has tons of energy and has filled out a LOT eating the chicken. I have no way to tell if he's really better though until his meds are up and I take him back to the vet. Once he's finished we are going to introduce the kibble back slowly and find out what he is allergic to.

MK, that sounds no fun at all! Glad you are feeling better now though.

Ah, Montezuma's revenge :eek: I remember when I lived in So Cal many years ago and went on my first trip to Mexico...I knew not to drink the water, but forgot about the ice cubes in my drink...was sick for weeks...feel better!

The medication is kind of harsh too, so I'm thinking once done with that is when you start feeling better! it really is not a fun thing to have and it has to be much harder on cats.

You should try Probotics and enzymes with him too, I think it would be good for him and his system.
Glad to hear he is doing much better :) ! I feel his pain!!!

Paul is he getting any supplements and/or probiotics?

Yeah, the probiotics will be introduced again too along with the food. I'm sure his tummy will need it. ;-)
