Kami not eating again :(

food.

Have you contacted her vet? You might want to ask him about an
appetite stimulant such as Periactin.

That always "kick-started" my late CRF cat (sweet Cory). I really hope
Kami will bounce back and have a good long time left with you, Brandy.

I mentioned in another thread that I gave her a taco. Something about
chicken, cheese and sour cream she can't resist. After that, I changed
out the food in her bowl (even though none was eaten) and put one of
the new flavors in it I picked. It seems Chicken Hearts and Livers is
also irresistable. Perhaps she didn't like any of the THREE flavors I
bought last time. I dunno. I can't imagine even the most obstinate
cat starving itself because it wants oragn meats over fish that day (or
two). I just don't understand my kid sometimes.

Cats are weird Brandy. My favorite trick is when you find a food that
they really like and buy a bunch. Then they decide they don't like it
anymore. But I haven't tried them on tacos. Was that a real taco or a
Taco Bell type? Hard or soft?

I put that in the email I sent her this morning.


Didn't "the best vet in world" suggest warming up her food and maybe adding
a little warm bacon fat? A little- just a little- warm bacon fat even works
wonders on k/d and x/d.

It was a Taco Bell chicken soft taco. I had expected a beef taco
because the combo included that and I only ordered the burrito as
chicken. Kami really likes their taco meat for some reason, but I
guess the chicken is probably better given her tummy and the spices at
the moment. She got the chicken, some cheese and some sour cream, and
I got the rest (threw out the tomatoes).

Have you tried cooking her some ground beef or chicken with some
garlic? The garlic alone might be enough to entice her.

Yah, I think garlic can cause that strange anemia, just like onions.

Hope Kami keeps eating, even if you have to buy some air freshener...

I don't think you caught the sarcasm with Brandy's aka Margarita Salt's
comment.

There was a big fuss in here a while back after she mentioned about
feeding her own cat onions. We were all concerned about it for Kami's
sake while Brandy was busy defending feeding onions to cats.

Thanks. I often commute by bike and there is a Taco Bell on the way
home so sometimes I drop in. I'll pick up a chicken taco and beef taco
and let the boys choose. I'm hoping that Kami keeps mowing them down.
