My Micah (prayers needed)

[NoahsMommy]

My angel, Micah is under the weather again. You all know I love and charish all my furkids, but Micah lives in my heart. I've always said that if I were to die, Micah is coming with me.... He's an angel...that's an understatement though.

Which is why the slightest unhappiness or pain he has hurts me too.

He hasn't been himself since around Christmas. He's lost his shiny coat and his mouth seems redder. (He has stomatitis)

Our vet has quit the crazy, insane clinic we used to work together at and has bought into another clinic. The current owner/founder is an EXCELLENT kitty dentist, so much so, he's accredited by the American Dental Assoc.

Micah has an appointment in two weeks for a blood draw to make sure he'll be OK for anesthesia. He's only 5, but he's not allowed to die, ever!!! She started him on Pred and Amoxi last night, so they'll be able to take xrays during the last week of January and do some major dental surgery on him.

She explained, after consulting the founder/owner/super dental vet ( ), that Abys (and Meezers) get an autoimmune condition where their bodies attack and reject thier own teeth! With Micah already having IBD, I'm not surprised he has this too. Poor baby!!

He may have to have ALL his teeth extracted. Its not certain until they do the dental xrays (with a specific dental xray machine) to see what's going on in his cute little mouth.

I'm just so worried. I love that little cat more than most things in my life. It may sound crazy, but its true. He's so much to me. Each time I look at him, I smile and my heart flutters. I keep him on my desktop at work so I can look at him all day. He's my shadow and lap warmer every second when I'm at home. Everyone that has met him want to steal him from me. He is my angel....

Please pray that he'll be OK. That the bloodwork is OK and that he gets through this with ease. Just typing this out has me all teary eyed and upset.

He's going back on the raw diet as soon as I get the mix in the mail. I know that helps him a lot too.

Thanks guys.

Here's a few pictures of my angel:

Micah, you better be a good boy for meowmie.... look at the mess she's worked herself up into! So please me a good boy and sit still for all those pictures and smile for the X-Ray camera.

I will make sure that you have angel kitties watching over you and making sure that you'll be a-ok. We need to make sure that you'll stick around here for a very very long time!

Prayers on the way for you and Micah...

He has such a good kat meowmie....

{{{HGUS}}} for you both.. keep us updated.

[catlover4ever]

Oh Kelly....prayers are on the way!!!! I hope Micah gets better soon.

I know just how you feel.....Abner is my "soul kitty" as I call him, just as Micah is your soul kitty.

Two of my mom's cats have the same dental condition. Cucumber and MaGee have both lost all of their teeth but have no fear they do absolutely fine......they can still eat like little horses.

Please keep us posted. {{{ hugs }}}

Micah, darling, I hope you are feeling better soon and that everything goes well with your appointment.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Oh Kelly, I'm so sorry to hear that Micah is having problems again. I know you went through so much with his (and your) IBD and everything had been going along so well.

I'll be sending out positive thoughts and prayers that everything goes well for him.

{{{hugs}}} to you because I know exactly what you mean about how close you are to him and how he is not allowed to die. I sure will hope and pray it doesn't come to that.

[Craftlady]

Keeping good thoughts and prayers.

Oh poor sweet Micah. He will be in my thoughts and prayers. He sure is a handsome boy.

[wolflady]

Gosh, poor little Micah-head! He was doing so well too! Lots of prayers on the way for this special little sweetheart. Give him the "muskrat" that I sent for him to play with...hopefully that will have him feeling frisky.
I sure hope his blood work comes out ok and that he doesn't have to have all of his little teeth removed! Poor little thing!

**hugs**

[iloverat]

Micah, you and your meowmie have prayers coming from this PTer, too. I hope the meds start kicking in immediately and that the good doctors will know exactly how to help you. Get better, darling Micah. Give your momma a reassuring headbumpie.
