    Prayers and healing energies for Diego that all goes well with removing the stone and then finding out what it is and how best to treat the condition.

    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.

    Healing prayers for sweet Diego!

    I wonder...if it was growing slowly over time, I wonder if that was part of his emotional trouble? Certainly the fire and noise did its thing, no question. Might be an idea to ask the vet if s/he has any idea how long it might have been developing.

    Hope he feels better very soon!

    The vet techs were actually talking about this very thing last night while we were there. One even went so far as to say he'd be a different cat when I took him home Friday after the surgery. Guess we'll find out this weekend.

    Poor Boy! Sorry he has to have operation but I'm sure he will feel much better when stone is out. (I did--gallstones) You and Diego are in my thoughts and prayers.
    I'll be checking back.

    My Dakky is prone to crystals/stones. The vet we went to this last time said stress DOES make the condition worse, and water, water, water was first on the list. Second was to eliminate all stressors in the house. I bought a fountain for them, add water to his food in the am, and stopped bringing animals into the house. Fingers crossed.

    I hope Diego's surgery goes well, and that he will feel like a new boy after all this.
