Oh Jo, I am so sorry! Do not beat yourself up! We always notice things after the fact. Prayers coming that its nothing serious that a little TLC and good medical intervention won't fix.

OF COURSE!!! Many prayers for Tenny!
I am glad that he needed to go get groomed at the vet, it was his way of having his health problem found. But I must say, WHY were they going to put him under anesthesia for a shave down? :confused: (No need to think about that now, concentrate on that sweet boy)
AND, Minnie getting a grooming AND a teeth cleaning at the same time is probably a GOOD thing.....less stress on her.
Prayers are on the way . Hope all goes well for Tenney.
Prayers are on the way for Tenny!
Oh dear! Let us know what the blood tests show!
If it is thyroid, you CAN cope with that! Mr. Amber Cat aka Amber had that. He wasn't the easiest cat to pill, but we worked out an agreement: he wouldn't take my fingers and I would give a treat afterwards.
How old are each of them? Having one tooth out is not too terrible; she can still eat plenty, as your cat food bill will show!
Dont Not Feel Guilty.
Sam Lost Quite A Bit Of Weight, And I Never Noticed As He Was Always Curled With The Other Cats.
Its Not Until Something Really Goes Wrong, That Our Cats Let Us Know That They Are In Fact, Ill.
We Are Sending Prayers For Tenny.
And Pet Angels To Comfort Him In His Time Of Need.
Get Well Tenny, Please.
Prayers being sent your way! I'm sorry to hear that Tenny isn't feeling well. :(
Please don't start beating yourself up over this. Prayers & positive
vibes for Tenny.
Tenny and Minnie are home and settled in. The vet techs said, "your cats didn't say a word all day". Then, Tenny heard my voice :o He was ready to get on outta there. The vet techs got 98% of Tenny's mats out, without sedation. They couldn't believe his loving ways. The vet tried to reassure me, that while he couldn't promise anything, he really thought it was probably just his thyroid.
He is laying around, and now, of course, it just seems totally obvious! :( He does look beautiful, as they bathed him as well. No one's whites are as white as Tenny's. He has eaten and drank, so that is good. Tomorrow, prolly before 10am I will find out. Fingers and paws crossed, please.
Minnie is another story. She is still pretty groggy. She is under the bed, and will need to be "caught" to medicate tonight. <sigh>. She looks beautiful. Her fur is about 1/2 inch, and VERY puffy. She is prolly about 5 or so, so, the one tooth isn't a major concern. I just don't want any infection to set it.
Thanks everyone. I will update you tomorrow.
PLEASE keep positive thoughts in your minds.
thanks,
Johanna
I sure hope all will be OK with Tenny. I can't remember if we saw him when we were there or not? Good luck and I'll be watching for the update.
WELCOME home babies!!
Good luck with the medication for Minnie.
Prayers for good tests results for Tenny.
Sending positive thoughts and prayers your way for Tenny and Minnie!
Samantha sends purrs and headbumpies your way too! :)
I'm just wondering, didn't your Tex have to be on thyroid medicine for a while?
Does Tenny seem to have the same symptoms that Tex had?
Sending hugs your way, hoping that your furkids are feeling better soon.
Prayers on the way for Tenny and Minnie!
Lots of prayers and healing vibes coming your way for Tenny and Minnie.
Also please don't be so hard on yourself - bad stuff seems to come at us in multitudinous waves - have you noticed?? Unfortunately our kitties don't tap us on the shoulders and tell us when things don't feel so good - we often have to scratch our heads and wonder. Don't you sometimes wish we were as smart as they are :p I certainly do :)
Take care,
Betty
lots of hugs and prayers on the way for both kitties and mom too
a not so subtle KICK tho - PICTURES when they are feeling better!
