Question

I have a 16 year old White Persian Male. Sunday he would not eat (and he loves his food) and he would hide under a chair (never does that). Monday I took him to the VET because he still was not eating. They did full blood panel, urinalysis, cleaned his teeth, gave him an enema because he was very constipated, hydrated him and gave antibiotic cephalexin. They stressed to me that he MUST eat and gave me antibiotic to give also. He would not eat, had blood in stools (VET said from the enema)...hid everywhere and was miserable. Tuesday, Dr called with the lab results and said he has high levels of ALT ALP BUN which I don't know this all means, but Toxic Hepatopathy liver disease came up. He said if I can't get him to eat he would have to put tubes in & feed him which I can't do to the cat. Tues he got hydrated again & another antibiotic shot & I brought him home. He still has the blood in his stools but did eat a little. Dr. will you be honest with me, am I prolonging his fate? Katie
