Diva's still not eating or acting right. A bit lethargic and her appetite's meh save for when she gets her evening kibbles...

Jazz continues to be chatty/caterwauly as if she's starving to death; I present her with her bowl and I have to coax her to finish. It's starting to become very clear to me she's bored with her food. Thing is, there's no easy "fix" for this, as the I/D wet I'm feeding her is about the only thing she won't vomit back up. Granted, I haven't tried other food for months now--why fix what ain't broken--but now I may have no choice. She kept plain tuna down like a champ, though I didn't feed her much at a time...perhaps her sensitive tummy isn't so sensitive anymore? Thing is, I don't want to test the waters out unless I get the okay from one of the vets...

Seems as though she's DYING for kibble. She lingers around Ra's bowl while he's eating his kibble, then sneaks bits of what he leaves behind quite enthusiastically. This morning I caught her sneaking kibbles out of Diva's bowl that I'd put on top of the litter box in the hallway while I cleaned out Jazz's food bowl in the bathroom. I thought putting it up there would keep her out of it for the short time I was leaving it alone--WRONG! She just boosted her front legs up there and stretched on tippy toes to get at it! What a little snot! :)

Dr. B. says to feed Jazz whatever she wants to eat (within reason), but I'm wary of feeding her the K/D kibble because she vomited it so often when she was on it before we switched her over to I/D wet. I guess the only way to know is to try it out. My other thought was to try I/D kibble, but the last time I asked about trying that out Dr. D. said he didn't recommend it because it wasn't terribly kidney friendly compared to the wet and he didn't want to take a chance of liking the I/D kibble better than the K/D kibble she should be eating and then not want to switch back to K/D once her tummy calmed down.

So, yeah. The Saga of the Somewhat Sick Kittehs continues. ARGH!!!
