Our cat Teddy had surgery for an intestinal blockage, all went well. The blockage was caused by a lymphoma node. We are giving Teddy Leukeran 2mg every other day and a daily dose of Prednisolone 5mg. Now all of a sudden he has stopped eating. His gums are not pink and we are now giving him Procrit 2ml on the off days of the Luekeran. The doctor believes it is anemia, thus the Procrit. What would make Teddy stop eating all of a sudden when he was eating at least 4 - 5 times a day his hard and soft food? Also, how long does it take for the Procrit to kick in?
