Hi,

Sounds like it might be time to look for another vet. Obviously, if a cat cannot keep down anti-nausea meds, injectable meds are needed. The hospital staff should have told your wife to bring your kitty in for an injection. There are a couple of really good antiemetic drugs that can be given to cats.

If your cat is still hesitant to eat, you might want to try offering him strained meat baby food, with no onion added. This type of food would be very easy on the stomach and most cats really go for it. It also contains a lot of water which is good if a cat isn't drinking enough water.

Do you know any details about the exploratory surgery that was performed? It would be interesting to know what the vet found and if biopsies of the intestines were taken. Did the vet say anything about your kitty having inflammation bowel disease or possibly lymphoma? If he has either of these conditions he would need to be treated.

Take care and please let me know if you find out anything.

Regards,
PHKitkat
