Thank you for the responses all, its really informative. I haven't used Interferon yet, as my vet is still looking into it. I think Tomi is feeling a bit better today, he seemed to really like the dry Innova food and ate quite a bit, but only tasted the canned Innova. He doesn't seem to like

Yes Tomi is on doxocycline for the parasite hemobartonella. They gave me a small container of pills to give 2, once a day, but there's not enough there for 4-6 weeks. As well, he's on prednosone for the week to keep him from destroying his new blood cells. His red blood count is at 16 right no

Hi, Sorry you have had to find us but Tomi is in good hands. Is he on doxocycline and is the parasite hemobartonella? If the anemia is due to that the doxy should get his blood count back up once the hemobartonella is under control, he should be on the doxy for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks
