Keep Rascal in your prayers

[gini]

At 7 PM last night Rascal demanded food. He wasn't supposed to have any until around 8 PM - but I took the demand as a good thing.

I gave him the food the vet gave me and he had about two tablespoons of it along with a small amount of water. He loved this food and at $2.35 per can, he should love it!!

He spent a quiet night and stayed to himself, I think sending messages to Annie and Emma to leave him alone.

This morning he ate, but very little.

You cannot imagine how awful Annie is - trying every which way to get to his food while she has a whole bowl of her very favorite waiting for her.

Time for separate dining rooms!!

Thanks again for your prayers and good thoughts, this little boy owns my heart!

My girls will be keeping their paws crossed for a good result for Rascal. It just has to be, on your birthday!

I'm glad to hear everything is fine with him and I hope the biopsy turns out good

[Karen]

Glad to hear he was hungry, and we'll keep him - and you - in our prayers!

Aw, Gini, I'm so sorry. I just saw this. Glad Rascal is back home with you. Prayers flying that he will be back to his old self really soon. Major Prayers that the growth is nothing bad. Give him a kiss from me, ok?

[Randi]

I'm so sorry to hear Rascal is losing weight, it has to be because of his gum problems and that thing under his tongue. I so hope you will get a good report on the test results. That will be the best birthday present ever!

At least he wants to eat a little, that's a good sign.

Sending lots of positive thoughts to your dear boy. Please give him kisses from me - Fister sends purrs.

(((hugs)))

Prayers for Rascal to have a good result with the test results. I am
sorry he is having such a rough time. I think I'd stand watch when he
eats, just to make sure he gets his food when he wants it. I am such
a "protective mother" at heart. Hope he starts to heal up soon.

I am keeping you and Rascal in my thoughts and prayers. I hope the biopsy brings you happy birthday news!

Gini, I'm just now seeing this. I'm glad to hear that Rascal's dental went well and that he didn't have to have any teeth extracted. I sure hope that the growth under his tongue will be benign and that you'll get your birthday wish of a healthy cat. He was probably losing weight because his gums were hurting him and his sister wasn't letting him eat. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Just wondering how sweet Rascal is feeling. Hope he is eating better! Prayers still on the way for a good report on the lump.

Oh Rascal is such a sweet cat. He kept pretty much to himself over the weekend and slept. He ate, but not that much.

But this morning he wouldn't touch Annie and Emma's food and looked at me with a "so where is that good stuff you have just for me?"

And then he ate half a can - with me guarding his backside the whole time.

How I do love this cat!!

Thanks for asking about him and for your prayers.

Reminds me of when Bowser was with us - and needed Rx: Canned Grub to
combat his "bladder rocks" ...
The Other Guys would crowd around and try to "help" him inhale the Good Stuff.
He could throw a body-block on Cinder & Smokey better than an NFL tackle could!

And if that didn't clear the area; he could Curl a Lip, Show Teeth,
Growwwwwl, and Gobble a Byte - all at the same instant.
Dawg had some rare talents!

Hope Rascal continues to enjoy the Good Stuff and recover!

LOL I can just picture it. It's good to hear he's eating better.

I just received a call from the vet and what was removed is only a polyp!!

Absolutely nothing wrong with my boy - I just have to get him to chow down more, now that his teeth have been cleaned.

Am I ever grateful.............for Rascal's good health and also for all of you thinking about him and offering prayers.

YIPPEE - AN EARLY BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Yippeee!!! What a great birthday present for you, Gini.

I'm so glad everything has worked out so well for Rascal, and it sounds like as long as he continues to get "the good stuff" he'll start chowing down a bit more - especially if meowmy's got his back.
