Andy is truly one blessed cat! He has one powerful guardian angel and of course so many others here sending him postive thoughts! When Katie called me Friday night hysterical, I couldn't understand anything she was saying except Andy... dryer and my heart stopped. I immediately thought of a coworker years ago whose husband didn't know there kitten was in their dryer and the kitten died. Katie was sooo panicked and upset that when I finally understood what had happened I was trying to help calm her down but really don't feel I did. She was speeding to the vet with him and I was scared to death she was going to kill herself driving in the condition. I told her I would call my vet to see if there was any advice that she could give to Katie until she got to the vet. I hoped that hearing what a vet said would help her. Katie and I met here on Pet Talk and we have become best friends. We talk almost daily. We are like sisters. I feel her cats are my cats too. So I felt her pain and I didn't know how to help. Katie, I wish I could have helped you more. I am sooo thankful that Andy is ok and looking so good after what happened to him. And I know how you are going to be for the rest of your life over this. But, you have to let go of the guilt and not blame yourself. The important thing is Andy is ok.

And to all that have offered help, that is so generous of you. Katie really appreciates it. I know she is going to kill me for what I am going to say next but here goes, Katie doesn't like to ask for anything and I know this bill is already way more than she can handle. She will tell you that she will be able to figure something out just because she hates the thought of having to take money from anyone. But she could really use the help no matter what she says.

I am getting ready to call her to see how things are going today. We talked until late last night. She was so happy and relieved Andy was home. He ate the baby food and wanted more. he tried to jump on stuff but couldn't quite make it.

Prayers to you both.

Love Melissa
