They got the tube in ... and have gotten food into Mack twice already, as of about 2:20 p.m.

Yea!

I'm leaving work at 3:30 to go pick him up and learn what I need to do to feed him. I figured that would give them another hour and a half to see how he's tolerating the food. And to adjust any instructions, based on what they see.

"It’s better than you think. I was updating Rick at lunch re: Mack & a friend of ours overheard and piped up that SHE had had a cat that had Fatty Liver Syndrome and she said they had had to go the feeding tube route. She said her cat ( Casper ) started eating on his own about 2-3 weeks (the article I sent the link for said 6-8 wks, so it could be sooner!) after the tube was in and not only survived, but lived to the ripe old age of 18!! She said they were given prescription food that had to be mixed with water & syringed into the feeding tube, which was located under his chin in the neck area. She said it was kinda messy and putzy, but well worth it. As you said – Priceless!!"
