Farley went back to the vet today after his visit 10 days ago on 9/20/2008.
Farley weighs 5 pounds, 10 ounces today. This is up 2.5 ounces.
His BUN levels were down to 45 from 60. (good)
His Creatinine was up to 2.6 from 2.3. (not good)
The vet said we can start giving him his potassium supplements every other day instead of daily.
Otherwise, most of his levels from the bloodwork appear to be in the normal range. The biggest problem is that he refuses to eat. He hates KD in a can. He seems to mostly not want dry KD, but he will eat it from time to time. We've tried a small amount of dry NF, and he seemed to be curious about it. We haven't tried canned NF, but it is next on the list.
This morning, before going to the vet, Farley ate a tiny amount of Nutro Weight Management food from a pouch. He seemed really interested in it, but what he needs to do is gain some weight.

I was just thinking about Farley. I'm glad y'all now know what's going on and have a plan. I wonder if he'd be more inclined to eat outside. It seems that he's awfully happy out there.
Otto went to the emergency vet last night. He started sneezing and spraying blood out of his nose. They think it's feline herpes recurring respiratory thing (waiting for test results) but if that's not it we'll be looking at xrays to rule out bad stuff like tumors. He's looking and acting as normal so hopefully it's just a sinus thing.
Looking forward to seeing you and your kitties soon.
Poor Otto! Spraying blood sounds scare. Let us know how he is doing.
