Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2003Kato eating again
The vet prescribed an antihistamine called cyproheptadine for Kato and she responded immediately by eating a sizable amount of kibble and tuna and some juice from a couple of cans of tuna. I don't know why an antihistamine stimulates appetite in cats but at this point I don't care. I just hope that she keeps her appetite. The vet couldn't explain why she wouldn't eat. Teeth good and physical condition very good on examination, especially for an old cat. Thanks to all for your helpful suggestions. Kato and I are sharing a can of tuna in celebration. :- ) > The vet prescribed an antihistamine called cyproheptadine for Kato and > she responded immediately by eating a sizable amount of kibble and [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Kato and I are sharing a can of tuna in celebration. :- ) YEAH!!!!! > The vet prescribed an antihistamine called cyproheptadine for Kato and > she responded immediately by eating a sizable amount of kibble and [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Kato and I are sharing a can of tuna in celebration. :- ) What great news!

I understand that at this point you don't care and I don't know why this antihistamine stimulates feline appetites, but from what I've read, it does. I also read that it does not cure the "underlying disease." >I just hope that she keeps her appetite.

If you're interested in the answers that your vet isn't able to provide, you can always ask for a referal to a specialist. > Kato and I are sharing a can of tuna in celebration. :- ) Best wishes to you and Kato!
