Actually, that's a great idea. Whenever I have ferals, I play radio with talk shows so that they get used to human voices. But this little guy seems beyond that stage. After that, classical music is very soothing to cats.

I'm wondering if he'd like a little tv or some music. I have never had luck with Feliway nor Rescue Remedy though I can try them again with him. We tried Feliway the day of the vet visit. It's so frustrating because he was doing so great! We feel he is saying 'I want to be IN the house with you, daddy, and my brothers OR I want to be outside. I don't want to be in purgatory. I did get an RX for cypro, so I will pick that up, try baby food (onion free of course), KFC; When the other boys don't eat, I can syringe, pill them, etc - but lil Whimsy still has that feral streak come out. But we have to try everything. thank you for your support!! --- On Sun, 12/26/10, Natalie <at...@optonline.net> wrote: From: Natalie <at...@optonline.net> Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] spoke to soon, Whimsy not eating again To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Date: Sunday, December 26, 2010, 9:15 AM Don't let him get to you - no matter how much he objects. Pretty soon, he'll be more than happy to be safe inside! Have you tried heating up the food or adding some very hot water to it? Does he have some toys, catnip to keep him busy? BTW, if you get Rescue Remedy, you don't necessarily have to get it into his mouth - you can place a few drops on the skin on his forehead or closer to the ear where the fur isn't so dense. I still think that Feliway could help a lot. -----Original Message----- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Emeraldkittee Sent: Sunday, December 26, 2010 9:46 AM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: [Felvtalk] spoke to soon, Whimsy not eating again after a good morning yesterday, now Whimsy is refusing to eat again. Tuna, sardines, treats, nothing - have to try KFC today. He is having bursts of playing alot, wants to cuddle, then gets pissed off and kicks litter out of his box, paces around crying and begging to go outside. He is depressed and angry. I just can't wrap my head around letting him out in all that snow and cold - after we made such progress. We live off a busy street - it's everything we got away from with him. The other thing is now he knows we live on the other side of the door with other kitties. Everything was fun until this dr apt and the outside door to his room froze over. I am going to get my vet to call in a cypro rx, but how I will pill this guy, I have no idea. this is so heartbreaking, in light of his excellent check up. argh.
