Great update! It sounds like you have an amazing vet, and with all the love and good thoughts Dexter is getting here, I've no doubt he's going to pull through! Keep on keeping on Dexter, you got this!
That's encouraging progress. And I have to say I'm LOLing a bit at the image of Dexter with a smorgasbord set out in front of him for His Royal Highness to choose from. Sounds like they're taking good care of him, and I hope you get to bring him home soon!

That is encouraging news!
I had a cat who stopped eating and I too had a smorgasbord in front of him. I got chicken from KFC, baby food, etc. I was frantic.
In the end, I had to get something called Eukanuba MaxCal and feed him with a syringe. After doing that for him for weeks, he suddenly started eating on his own! And then he lived another three years.
Walter stopped eating when we brought James home and he was distraught. We tried everything and eventually the vet prescribed him Valium and he took half a pill, got high as fuck, and then ate everything in front of him. Maybe Dexter just needs a little something to calm down after being sick? Cats are so delicate <3
Dexter, you stop being so extra and eat! You're worrying your mom!
I'm glad to hear that he's drinking and acting more like himself, boo.
Girl....I was standing over him on Sunday night almost in tears, going "Why won't you eat?? Just eat! Please! What's wrong with you?? TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU DEXTER WHY WON'T YOU EAT DAMNIT!"
