We have a 17 yr old male cat with FIV. The FIV was discovered some 8+ years ago. Lately he (Ricky) seems to want to eat more frequently and his stomach is huge. He is urinating and having seemingly normal bowl movements. He looks like he has saddle bags!?! Although he "asks" to eat all the time - he eats very little when food is given to him. Can you give us some reason why this may be happening? Thank you.
