Unless there's another Cujo, people must be mixing me up with someone else. My Cujo
has insulinoma and has been stable for several months with just continuous feedings
of the duck soup--mine is chicken and banana baby food, and he gets at least 25 cc's
each time. My problem is that he has become quite lethargic, grinding his teeth, and
doesn't want to eat on his own. I am getting up every four to five hrs. and feeding him
with a syringe, which he does pretty well with for the most part. I gave him 2/10 of a
cc of pediapred last night and again this morning and he may be showing signs of
slight improvement but just doesn't have any umph. He is wobbly when he does walk.
He is also getting sub q fluids every 12 hrs.
