Giacomo is doing much better and eating on his own! He will be on the appetite stimulant through tomorrow. On Thursday, I won't give it to him and pray he eats without it. Thank you again. I'll let you know how he does thursday/Friday and there after. Still praying for the other, so greatly loved, animal companions.
Hello...I am certainly praying for Giacomo...what a great little Italian name!
ReplyDeleteMy pup took an appetite stimulant recently. It worked wonders. I tapered him down quickly to a half, then to a quarter pill then none. Perhaps over 10 days total.
I found that this wasn't effective for him and he had to go back full dose. So, the second time I tapered much more slowly...over the course of a month. All is well now!
Just wanted to let you know in case your kitty needs a little more time too.
God bless!
Dear Lord, may the healing continue for Giacomo ad may he be restored to complete wellness, thank You, Lord.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the prayers that he continues to do well! And, yep, I love his name too :) I wondered about whether or not I should taper his dose. The vet did not say that I should. I thought about asking, but I went ahead and stopped it all together on Wednesday night. The wonderful news is, he is back to his normal eating-- 2 days without the appetite stimulant. So good to know though, that resuming the meds was helpful for your boy; I will certainly keep that in mind if his appetite declines. Thanking you all for your prayers. A very big thank you to Esther for answering my request immediately, and for creating this site. I was completely at a loss and turned to prayer and you all.. And it worked. And I felt comforted, even before my cat improved. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you. And I will continue to pray for all your petitions posted here, as I feel a part of a wonderful group that truly makes a differnce.
