Kitties are expensive creatures

 Have good news that Junie has healthy looking guts. The blood work is still pending but the doc thinks it’s what I’ve been dealing with all along of irritable bowel issues. So have to play around with the diet again. Will start with mixing in more of the freeze dried rabbit and he said that grain free doesn’t make as much difference as the protein so I may explore foods with rice

Bad news is that it’s still guesswork. If she continues to have constant diarrhea, I may have to start her on low dose steroids to try to calm things down. Though that seems better than the anti diarrhea pill that can cause nausea that was given as an option in the past that I refused. 

She was such a good girl that they didn’t need to dope her up and the little heifer gained weight again! So time to do research and I’m now about $650 poorer. Yikes

That girl would probably eat a pile of cardboard if I put tuna water on it lol

I eat simply if my tummy is acting up too. I do like rice, fortunately.

My vet doesn't take Care Credit - I checked (the emergency vet did since I saw the ad there and went online to check it out). I have a second visa card that has nothing charged on it if my regular card I use for most everything gets too high.

I'm going to see about getting some sample cans of novel protein foods to try if it's not too stormy this weekend. This brand seems to be highly recommended on some forums
