Elvira, here, with an update on Nikita.
The Urinary infection is receeding and he will take meds for another week.
As for his eating his weight remained the same and they are having Daddy Kiril see if he will eat a 3 oz can of fancy feast for a mid day meal in addition to what he's been giving him, and they will weigh him in 3 weeks.
He ate most of the fancy feast tonite.
He also is taking Cosequin for his joints, now, instead of the chews he was on, since this is what the new vet carrys, and it is just as effective.
Other than that he's his usual, perky self, as blog posts in the coming days, with photos, about our first few weeks in our new home, will show. :-D
We appreciate your continued purrs and purrayers.
****UPDATE 8am -- From Mr. Perky Himself****
Over night I tossed my cookies in spectacular fasshion, under Daddy's Desk. What brought this about I can't really say.
A reaction to eating Friskies wet food, or something else?
Haven't done one of these in a few years.
Don't freak out everyone, just keep those purrs and purrayers coming, I appreciate them.
The vet is closed, and I'm acting normal otherwise, so Daddy will call them in the morning.
****END UPDATE****
Paws up - I am glad to hear that Nikita is getting better!

You might try the blander Friskie foods. No fish flavor, especially salmon which has a lot of fat in it. We get only chicken with gravy or turkey and gravy. The gravy makes our dry food tastier too. The biped doesn't feed us the beef canned foods either. She says we'll get it just as soon as we drag home some beef.

Glad to hear you're doing better, Nikita. Keep up the good work, okay? We'll definitely keep the purrs and prayers coming, pal. :)

Maybe you barfed up the Friskies to let your Daddy Kiril know that you only want Fancy Feast. Get better and gain some weight. I wish I could send you some of mine.
