Well, she seems to be doing so much better! We still have to get the powdered Vitamin C to introduce into her diet, but the appetite stimulant has made such a big difference. She has so much more energy now. The other day she actually came upstairs and meowed to wake Kevin up to give her food cuz she was out. They told us to give her 1/2 a pill every 12 hours, but I've been giving her 1/2 a pill once a day...today she ate almost 1/2 a cup of food!!! She was barely going thru 1/2 cup every 2 days before the meds so YAY!
I've been trying to get piccies of her up here but my computer has been driving me crazy the past week or so and not letting me do anything. So I will get pics up soon I promise. Old and new.
Right now she's lying on the floor next to my chair here in the puter room. It really makes me so happy to see her jumping up on window sills and jumping on our laps at night. Shoot last night she took over Kevin's recliner in the living room. She was lying in it pretty much all day and Kevin came home and chased her out of it and when he got up later to go get something to drink she practically ran over to the chair to jump up in it again lol. She's such a brat!
Tomorrow will be 4 weeks since we took her in and she almost died. I know she's never going to be 100% but each day more we have with her I'm grateful for. I love this silly cat so!

You should talk to the vet again and ask if they carry science diet A/D. It is a high calorie food they give sick and recovering pets. I haven't found a pet yet that didn't LOVE it. Not that meat only baby food isn't a great treat either.
You can usually find vitamin c (asorbic acid) at the grocery store, especially if they have a health food section. Of course that is around here.. I haven't been to grocery stores around your area.. Ive heard of cats liking catalope too... which would have some in it.
Does she like Nip? you can often encourage cats to eat more if they like nip by putting a smidge in their food.
When Kodi was dying, he loved the attention hand feeding got him. Instead of putting it in a bowl, Id put it on a spoon for him.
