Hi Onnie,
The less meds he's on, the better as to his recovery. I'dreplace his litter with shredded newspaper so that nothing can getstuck.
If you have some NutriCal, or can get some, it's good to have it onhand. It'll boost his immune system and stimulate hisappetite. His favorite treats might be very muchappreciated.
Make sure he doesn't have to jump up into his litterbox. Itcould be uncomfortable for him. It'd be best if he could walkin.
