She looks great and I hope she'll continue to improve.:)
well have been in touch with my vet via email, he is off for two weeks, as his wife just gave birth to their third child, he wants to see her mouth again, and check everything out, so am quite pleased about that, her vomiting concerns me a bit, so want that checked to and the wound, which is looking good,so back next saturday the 16th, oh my Ellie will just love that, poor wee soul, she will be scared to death, but at least it is only a check up, here's hoping for good news.
Was a bit fussy eating today, still up and down really, so i am hoping she does not have to go back on the steriods, i know my vet really is against that, and if she can continue to eat as she is now, i cannot see a reason to do that,fingers and all paws crossed, will keep you all posted on how we get on.
Thanks for caring.:love:
I'm glad she continues to do better and glad she will be seeing her doctor again soon for a checkup. Congratulations to him and his wife on the birth of their third baby!
It's so good to see Ellie-Mae eating :)
She is so beautiful.
My prayers will continue for you all.

Ellie-mae is such an inspiration. She must love her life with you guys to keep fighting to stay alive. What an amazing spirit.
I hope the vet can make her mouth more comfortable. Cammie hardly has any teeth left in her mouth, but her "breath of death" is gone and she eats must anything. So, if more teeth have to be removed, don't be too concerned.
she ate extremely well this morning, so one happy mummy here today,oh yes Lisa ellie is a survivor for sure, just think of the life before she came to me, constantly having kittens, and not even being fed properly or let inside or ever been taken to a vet or de fleaed or wormed, i cannot believe she survived it really, but she did, i am sure her health has been compromised because of the neglect though,but still she is doing pretty well considering.
I do hope there are no more teeth to be pulled, there are only four left i think, yes will be peace of mind to have her re-checked, my vet is so awesome, he is so caring, and kind, i wonder if Ellie will get another kiss from him, he has never kissed my other kitties only Ellie, but then he has done so much for her and he wants to see her do well.
She is such an awesome wee cat, and i can see her fiesty nature beginning to return, she has not attempted to give her daughter a smack yet (she often does this for no reason, just plain meany , and i amthe boss and don't your forget it, type of thing)maybe she will be more gentle towards her now she is not in so much pain, i know when i am in pain i get grumpy, so i can empathise completely.
It is just amazing to me, i just could not imagine my life without Ellie in it, and i thought that was to be the case, but now she is going to be with me as long as possible, one never knows what is around the corner, but i feel positive we shall have more happy years together now.:)
Today Ellie had her final check up, her mouth has improved a great deal, and the vet was happy with it, there is still some redness on the gums above the teeth left, but he felt it was not necessary to remove those, i sure hope not.
However i mentioned her daily morning vomits, so he felt all around her stomach etc, he said there was some noticable difference on one side where her liver was, he said it could be just because she ate well this morning, and her stomach was still full, which she did do ,eat well i mean, or that it could be enlarged, due to the steroids she has had to take, but that would eventually go back to normal, so i am hoping that is all it is, left with mixed feelings, on the good side she is maintaining her weight, 3.29kgs, my scales are not that accurate, so could be out a gram or so.
Poor wee thing she just sits on the table as if paralysed with fear, which i believe she is, she just trembles all over,mind you i don't blame her after all she went through.
So here's hoping Ellie is ok, and will continue along a healthy path with many years ahead.
Oh, poor Ellie baby, so afraid at the vet's! This man has been helping you get so much better, little sweet thing!
:love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:
Great to hear that Ellie is holding a good weight and eating well. Poor scared Ellie - you won't have to see the nice doctor for a long time now. He really cares about you, sweetie!
Carole, I wish you many happy years with Miss Ellie!:):love:
Good to hear. Keep improving Ellie! :love:
Don't worry about that white coat, Ellie-mae. You just keep getting better and you won't have to see them again for a long, long, time. Keep on eatin' kitty girl!
Ellie is eating so much now somedays, more than she did with the steroids, but it will make me much happier when i see her weight begin to climb, she is still rather thin and scraggy looking.
Her temperament has changed though, she is still fiesty at times, but in five weeks she has not attacked her daughter once,and she has stopped biting the blanket,i do think it was her mouth making her do that and the pain, making her that way, i sure know when i am in pain i am a big grump, so i understand where she was coming from, she still is my miss ellie though in most ways ,just a bit more gentle.,which is great to see.
Good news, Ellie-mae, you continue to make progress!
yes she ate like a horse again this morning,cannot believe how much she is eating,as long as she puts on some weight, then i will be happy,her wound is completely healed now and the fur is slowly growing back, her side fur is almost full grown but the under belly is taking a bit more time.
Well it is five weeks now so i sure would expect a good improvement,lets hope she continues to thrive and i can post a pic of her back to how she used to look.If you compare the pic in my siggy, before she got really ill, and the latest ones, you can see how thin she has become.
