Please pray for Owen(FIV+ rescue)

I picked up Owen Christopher from Owenboro yesterday because he was going to be killed. He was on the URGENT list but had a lady to sponsor him for all his medical bills if a rescue or person would take him. I had been trying to help him and told them if NO ONE else will take him I will so that he won't be killed. They called and said that he just developed an URI and if I couldn't take him he would be put down. So of course I couldn't let that happen so I went to get him. The shelter is a very HIGH KILL one. The percent of cats that come in that get killed is 90%! The ones with special needs are usually put down when they come in because they have so many healthy ones that need homes. Anyway, I picked him up and his URI was worse than I expected so I called his sponsor and told her I think he needed to go to the vet now instead of me waiting to get an appt with my vet on Monday. There was also some confusion about if he was FELK+ or not so i took him to the ER and had him retested and the URI treated. he is on two antibiotics and I have been giving him Lysine and steam showers to try and break up all the congestion. Today out of his right nostril the discharge was bloody instead of red tinged. I am real wooried about him and need all of you great prayers to help me pray from Owen Christopher( Christopher was his shelter name because his sponsor is named Chris, but i decided to call him Owen from owensboro and then owen Christopher when he gets in trouble lol) He is a doll baby. I have some pics on my phone but can't get them on the computer to show you. But please please pray for him. Thanks

I have an appt for him to see my vet today at 5. He is not eating and I have been syringe feeding him a/d watered down some. he is so congested he just can't smell at all. because he isn't eating he is getting dehydrated. I will probably be giving him fluids. Thansk for all the prayers, please keep them going for Owen.

I have an FIV kitty and he is wonderful. Many prayers to Owen and to his wonderful caregiver because I know the stress and worry we kittymommies go thru when our babies are sick. :love:
