Glad to hear Neeko recovered from the Furball Incident! We almost lost Jackson Galaxy's cat that way, I had to give artificial respiration all the way to the emergency vet! Of course Neeko's anatomy wouldn't be normal due to the previous hernia surgery. Scar tissue can create lots of little nooks and crannies in the belly.
It will be really important, as his fur grows out, to keep him combed, at least 2 or 3 times a week, and/or a dose of Vaseline every couple of weeks, to prevent forming any more furballs.
Right now it's more important that he is eating, rather than what he'll eat. But we do want to transition him off kibble asap. Here are two sites with many suggestions on how to do that:
