In reply to the discussion: Tinkerbell has lost her struggle. RIP Tinkerbell. [View all]Mersky
(5,340 posts)It's rough when your kitty is crashing, been there and its terrifying. If you have an oral medication syringe, could try mixing some wet cat food with water and squirting it in her mouth periodically (avoid mixing in tasty human food that contains salt). Any calories and water could help get through the night. Also, 5 mg of omeprazole (1/4 coated tablet dissolved in a tad of water and given by oral syringe) to reduce the acid stomach that tanks their appetite. We had to do that for a couple weeks. I dumped all knowledge about pulling my 15 year old kitteh back from the brink of stage 4 kidney disease here:

Hope this helps, but really, its the loving the good years and opening our homes that matter.
