Not eating is'nt so bad but not drinking is, keep encouraging him with water and fone the vet!!
Reply:Plan for his funeral. That happened to mine too. A few more weeks and that's it.





They can put an IV and keep it alive for a few more days, but that's it.





Love it, pet it and say good bye to each other.
Reply:try a small syringe to force it too but sounds either still sedated or on the long run to heaven
Reply:take them to the vet asap
Reply:make sure that he is drinking, don't need him dehydrating on you. syringe feed it to him if need be, call your vet to see if there is anything that you can do.
Reply:This might sound weird, but I have a friend whose cat has trouble eating, and she gives him a little bit of pot.
Reply:When we had cats in the hospital that wouldn't eat we tried a couple of things (OK many things, but here are a couple for you).





Meat baby food- we warmed it just a bit.


Ensure the vanilla flavored. With the Ensure you can use a syringe and force feed him by placing it in his cheek pouch (you don't want to put it in the back of his mouth) or even just on the tongue. You can do the same with some water also.





Good luck, I hope things turn out well.
Reply:During the last few weeks of his life, I used an eyedropper to feed a combination of molasses and water to a very sick cat. It was about the only thing I could get into him.





Have you tried offering tuna water to your cat? The old cat in question did drink that longer than he did everything else on his own. I ordinarily wouldn't suggest this, but your kitty is in an emergency situation.
Reply:Drinking is more the issue right now. What about an eye dropper filled with water and putting in the corner of her cheek. At least if he gets some water he won't become dehydrated. What does the vet say regarding him not drinking? I'm sorry your pet is so sick..
