Sundance was diagnosed on December 21, 2005. I was able to bring her home on December 24, 2005. She was under 7lbs and was weak. Although she had been eating at the vets, she would not eat at home. I was trying to feed her the vet recommended Hill's prescription dry. Thank goodness she wouldn't touch it. On Christmas day, in a panic, I went to the local 7/11 and bought Fancy Feast. Little did I know what kind of gift that was. I am so thankful for the advice from the FDMB and for the support of other caregivers of kitties with FD. Please hometest. It does save and improve lives.
