Puddy

[sasha the cat]

We hope it went well today giving Puddy her hydration. Mew, I can't think of one pussycat I know who likes that. Every so often I get hydrated too ... mostly just before my B12 injection.

Puddy, mew, your meowmie wants you around more than 14 years so you keep fighting. At my Palace we're all here cheering you on.

My best wishes for a calm Puddy. so she can have her fluids, and a calm hand for her mama.

I know what you are going through, we were giving Malfi fluids a couple weeks ago, and it is so frustrating. Cat bag, two people, and still; needle out!

We try to syringe as much as we can in his mouth, in place of the SubQ's.

Try to look on the bright side: the sickest of cats will not have the strength to fight. So if she's resisting, she's doing better than you think.

And, if it is too mentally tough on you, just take her to the vet, and let them do it. My thought is: this is what money is for.
Maybe they will 'cut you a break' if you bring in your fluid bag and trappings.

Praying for the best results for Puddy girl.

Well, we're doing pretty good right now. (See my post "Success!") Believe me, I don't have a problem w/taking her to the vet if I have to, to get those fluids in her. But she cries when she sees the carrier, then that makes it even more stressful for her. So I was determined to do it myself and yesterday went smooth as silk. I couldn't believe it! I almost had to check to make sure someone didn't smuggle in a Puddy look-alike! Ah, but there's none like my Pudster, that's for sure.

Thanx again for your encouragement. It's what kept me going.

Blessings,
M
