I'm SO sorry that Mishi and you are going through this, but I really hope the fluids and medicine will help him pull through, and you will have some more good times together! I know how heartbreaking to see him like that. :(
Lot of positive thoughts and gentle headbumpies from me and Fister.
Big ((((hugs))))
Prayers for Mishi, lots and lots of prayers.
Hugs for you to help you thru this.
Once again I'm blown away by the generosity, love and caring of the Pet Talk community. Those of you who have contributed $$ to help defray the costs of Mishi's hospitalization - I can't thank you enough. Every little bit helps; but the love and caring I'm receiving from this website is more than any amount of money can ever buy.
I talked to the vet tech this morning who said he's doing a bit better. He's alert, eating and peeing. I should get a report from the vet later today.
My office mates are cracking up because Mishi received a very official looking UPS package today. The vet had called in a medication from a compounding pharmacy back East. It was delivered today, addressed to Mr. Mishi Llewellyn :) Ah, my son!
Thank you everyone for your kindness. Pet Talk ROCKS!
LOL! How cute is that???!!?? :DQuote:

Great news on Mishi! Fingers and paws crossed, and prayers too!
Dear Mr. Llewellyn: I am one of your biggest fans on Pet Talk. In fact, I am a fan of all of the orange cats on Pet Talk. I am writing you this note to say that I hope you are feeling much better today. I am glad to hear that you are more alert and your appetite has improved. I hope your person will give this to you for me when she sees you again: *PET*Quote:

Glad to hear of Mishi's progress! Will continue to send prayers!!!
He's home; awfully poopy back there. They got him eating and going, but they didn't bother to clean him up :( He's obviuosly feeling LOTS better, but not out of the woods yet. They've sent him home on a whole slew of meds, Baytril, Enulose, stuff to dissolve his bladder stones, and the SubQ's are to continue daily. He seems very happy to be home, although Mitzi still hasn't come out of hiding - I know he doesn't smell like Mishi; he smells like VET!
The $$ just keeps rolling in from you all. Thank you every single one of you. The bill for the past few days was a little over $600; paired with the $300+ for the E.R. last Friday night and several hundred over the past few weeks .... every little bit helps! Thank you again SO much!
I'm so glad to hear that Mishi is doing well and is back home again.:) I hope that he continues to do well. I'm still keeping him in my thoughts and prayers.
It was SO nice to wake up around 3:00 a.m. to find a big orange kitty sleeping next to me. I missed him SO much when he was hospitalized. He seems a LOT better this morning, eating, drinking water, peeing/pooping - all is not quite normal yet, but he seems to be on the mend. Even his meow sounds more normal. Let's just hope he continues on an upward swing. :)
Good prayers for Mishi! :)
Well, he may not feel 100%, but he sure sounds like he is on his way there. :)
I am so glad Mishi is back home with his mommy where he belongs. :D
Get better soon Mishi Boy!! :)
Oh what wonderful news to see that Mishi is home again! And he was sleeping with you! That is always a good sign! Hope he continues to mend. Has Mitzi come out yet? More prayers coming your way from me and the girls in Indiana!
By the way, I love the package for him! That is hysterical! :D
Mitzi is still hiding. I think she's jealous of all the extra-special attention and food Mishi is getting. The only food he will eat right now is Fancy Feast, although he did eat a jar of turkey baby food yesterday too.
He's not 100% yet. When he starts humping my teddy bear again, THEN I will know he's back ;)
I came home last night after being gone all day to two cats playing! It was such a good sign, however I had had a call from the vet during the day. The Enusol was working a little too well and causing diarrhea, so we've cut that out. I'm still struggling to get Mishi to eat and it's obvious to me that he's close to the end. The vet concurs that he is showing signs of the end stages of kidney disease, so I know I'll have to make the decision soon.
For now he's resting, nibbling at his food, drinking water, but it's clear that the end is near. I pray that I don't wait too long and that he doesn't suffer. We're just taking it one day at a time.
