@Dr. Jean Hofve So sorry the late response, I didn't see your response here. Thanks a lot, I have ordered a box of lysine and will give him 1000 a few weeks and see what that does. I'm actually curious to see if that can affect his itch/FHS as well... @Dr. Jeff Unfortunately that respiratory...

Thank you so much, Christina, for your reply . I appreciate it a lot. Ever since I got him it has been a bit difficult to get him to play and it has been difficult to know whether it is the FHS symptoms, obesity or other things that contribute. But I have found a few things that work for about...

Thank you so much, Dr. Jeff! That's awesome. I already give him a tiny sprinkle of the Vimergy micro C and 2 drops daily of the Vimergy b12. Would you say that is enough? The other two supps are unknown to me so I will definitely check those out. Thanks a lot. I have been frustrated in that...

Hi again guys. I’m back with a question for my animal rescue foster cat, Finn. I tried searching the forum, but didn’t find anything about it. Besides his overweight and FHS, one of the symptoms he has is a constant stuffy nose. I hear it because breathing makes stuffed sounds, don’t know how...

Sorry, didn’t see your reply! Thank you so much for getting back to me about this as it is still a challenge. He has been with me since June. Before that he had been with Animal Rescue Services so we don’t know much about his life other than he is 10yo and he was abandoned by his previous...

Sorry, didn’t see your reply! Yes, this is a balanced diet. I am considering giving him 1/3 of his daily intake with a meat bought from local farmers so I can get variation and probably less antibiotics (there are pretty strict rules about antibiotics use in Norway, but there is likely going to...

That makes sense, but I have given him only the minimal amount recommended so he’s not been eating as much as he wants, could that still be why he is gaining on that amount, what you said? That he is making up for nutrients? It doesn’t make sense that he is gaining on such a low amount. Should I...

@Gail Pope Would love to connect with you about this as well.

Thank you so much @Dr. Jeff. He did appreciate the raw food and wet food much better, bit the problem with that was that he was only gaining weight on it even though I was giving him almost minimum amount recommended feom the company. So with that food I don't know how to help him lose the...

Thank you so much, both of you. Your responsed made me cry. I feel exactly what you said, Jean, that this weight loss kibble is absolute trash and makes him feel terrible, but I don't know how to make the alternative work. He did appreciate the raw food and wet food much better, although I was...

Hi! I already made a post with questions about my Finn under another subject, but I thought this was a different subject so here's another post. Finn is 10yo,male,neutered,standard Norwegian house cat breed, 6,5kg, beam: seems sad and bored, but has bursts of energy. Seems sader and less...

Not a vet, only here to send my love and support to you and Gaylieszce. He’s lucky to have you, good job getting him help and answers. I wish you all the healing ❤️

@Dr. Christina

Hey guys. I made a post a few months back regarding my 10yo foster cat Finn who was diagnosed with FHS this summer. He also has overweight issues after stress eating the first months he was here (and in a different foster home) so he is about 6,4kg now when his optimal weight is between 4,5 and...

Hi. First time posting here so hopefully I do this right. I have several questions so I hope it’s ok that I write them all here. My male foster cat, Finn, is 10, neutered, standard norwegian house cat breed (unsure what that’s called) and weighs about 6,5kg. He came to me as a foster from a...
