    Mitzi - not again :(

    Mitzi had her blood checked again and again the calcium levels are way elevated. The vet said it could be caused by several things, but she kept saying cancer We're scheduling an ultrasound and chest X-ray to see what they can see.

    Mitzi hasn't been herself for a while, but none of the tests have been conclusive. She just seems down a lot of the time, although she's still very playful and affectionate. She's never been a big eater, but she's barely touching her dry food anymore (part of that is because she badly needs a dental, which we're trying to schedule too). She does gobble down the Fancy Feast twice a day and is relentless when it comes to treats. Water drinking is normal, peeing and pooping are normal. Snuggles and purrs are normal and wonderful.

    The vet doesn't want to schedule the dental until we do the ultrasound. I just hope it's nothing major. I'm having a surgery myself later this month - we just may be nursing each other.

    Prayers please for my little Mitzi minx.

    I'm so sorry to hear this. I sure hope it's not the big "C". Storm also had high calcium levels when he had his bloodwork done the past few years and so he also had another type of test done but I can't remember the name of it. It turned out fine so I didn't worry. This year his bloodwork was fine and his calcium level was high but still within the normal limits. The only thing that's changed has been his diet which is now grain free Innova Evo. I'll keep Mitzi in my thoughts and prayers. Please continue to keep us updated and take care. (((HUGS)))

    Healing prayers for beautiful Mitzi, and that whatever is causing the high levels is easily treated.

    Prayers tomorrow please

    Mitzi is having her ultrasound and chest X-ray tomorrow. The good vet's husband is the radiologist. The only bad part is Mitzi will be transported across the Bay for the ultrasound. My poor girl - and her beautilful, fluffy Buddha belly will be shaved. I just hope that whatever they find, that it's easily treatable. Good vibes and prayers please.
