It is a diet developed by an animal nutritionist and used w/ great success by several YT members - most recently if you read Laurenr's thread about Mango...

It may be worth a try to help him, but yeah - def. sounds like he needs to see a vet. I so wish I had advice about the paypal thing...

REALLY? About the fish and potatoes and green beans? I'll try ANYTHING!

Yesterday (when I posted this) he wasn't eating anything at all (this is his typical M.O. when he starts this)....but then at nighttime, it's like he's all better, wanting to eat. And his poops eventually get better (not perfect, but better), and he keeps the food down. I tried putting a little plain yogurt in his morning feeding b/c I had hoped it might help the intestinal flora (a little knowledge is a bad thing I'm starting to think!).....I will PM you! Thank you! Although I'm not sure he'll eat green beans. I know he won't eat cottage cheese or yogurt (unless it's disguised in his food). But I'm def. willing to try. Since he's eating today and back to himself, I'm going to just leave him on what I've been giving him just to get him thru til tomorrow!

And yes, he def needs to see a vet~ which he's going to do TOMORROW!
