That’s tough. It sounds like your doctor and you are doing everything possible to get Shere Khan better. It really depends on the underlying cause. Once you get some of the test answers back then you will have a better idea of what is happening and why. I hope your kitten starts feeling better quickly and please feel free to post any additional questions.
