    Misty is in the hospital

    Please pray for Misty. Do you remember back in late January we had a problem with Misty? (See what could be wrong with Misty under cat health). Well, the problem returned. So I called another vet and MIsty's appointment was today. They ran blood tests and got the results back within 15 minutes. Misty is in kidney failure. My choices were put her down or to put her on an IV and flush her kidneys out. I chose the IV treatment (that's what credit cards are for, right?). They are going to try it for three days and see if there is any improvement. If there is no improvement, then Misty will have to be put down. She's too weak to handle anesthesia, so they can't put her under to do anything exploratory to see what the main problem could be. I'm so upset right now. Please pray that she will pull through this. Thanks.

    Oh no, I, this is very sad news... But Steno, my Fritz (RB) was diagnosed with kidney failure. I opted for the subcutaneous IV therapy and we were lucky to have him with with us for a quite a while, comfortable and stable and happy. I will be praying with all my might for precious Misty. All of my family will be. Bless you little Misty. Hang in there sweet girl. Love, Sandra

    Thank you all for your replies. Sandy, you post made me feel a lot better about my decision. They just called me about 15 minutes ago and said that Misty is hanging out in the back of her cage pretending that she's not there. We're going to go visit her tomorrow. They're going to do another test Wednesday morning to see if her numbers dropped any. I'll keep you posted.

    It's very strange being able to type this whole post without having to move her off the keyboard and delete all the funny letters she typed in while walking on it.
