Hi, I spoke to my vet and said that giving glucosamine/chrondroitin was an option for her arthritus but recomended we still use the steriods because it's so severe. So I got them about 2 weeks ago. I can't believe the improvement in the past 10 days. She was jumping on the bed in the morning, washing my face and "grooming" my hair to wake me up! :) sooo sweet!
The vet also said we will have to get her blood tested to check her thyroid levels because her appetite has gone in to over-drive. The problem is today she has been off her food - very unusual for her! vomiting yellow froth and looking very down, she keeping sitting tucked up in a corner. I must admit I'm very concerned. :( She's going to the vet tomorrow night. The fur on the back of her legs has worn away and looks really sore :(

Whatever happens I wish you the best, maybe all the food she's eating she can't "move" it through her system quickly enough hence the bile. Is she using her litter tray okay?

Will be thinking of you tomorrow this is a little close to home for me. But I wish you the best and know you will make the right descision for a wonderful cat.
