Bailey has had a lot of energy recently too which is great. Started him on coconut oil yesterday to try and get some weight on him and he loves it which is great!

Got a low AMPS for him today.. glad I am home all day to keep an eye on him

Re: 12/16 Bailey AMPS 126

You didnt realize I have two diabetic cats? Yes.. we adopted one from my DH sister since she couldnt treat him..

I think you could give coconut oil, its supposed to be very good for them for many things but also gaining weight.. I discovered it through a post from Marge :

If you want to add something to help her weight, I would suggest you try Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil. My vet prescribed coconut oil for our 16 year old CKD kitty, Gus. He gets 2-2.5 mld/bid to gain weight and he has gained about 4 ounces. I also give it to Gracie and Tobey but only 1 ml bid for hairballs. It is FD friendly and that small amount for the two younger ones has not affected their weight.

I couldn't find that brand here but Marge said any pure, cold pressed, organic, extra virgin coconut oil should be good. I started Bailey on it yesterday and he loves it.

No I didn't know !! That's so nice of you !! I like that

I will ask my vet about it ! You know with all the complications I come to a point that I don't know where to begin .. But since its natural I hope it doesn't do any harm to the heart
