My Puddy, suddenly and without warning

[Barbara]

Filou purrs gently in Puddy's ear. My thoughts are with you and your girl.

Poor Puddy! Please try to eat some turkey for your meowmie. Maybe some turkey broth mixed with the k/d will help her appetite.

Puddy's doing better. This cat never ceases to amaze me. She is so tough! I guess the extra SQ fluid treatment perked her up. She slept well all night, snuggled in next to me and this morning she groomed herself. Last night she could barely lift her head, so when I saw her grooming herself, I nearly cried. Then I closed the bedroom door behind me and she meowed, so I popped my head back in and she ran out the door and down the stairs to sit in the sunroom. I talked to Dr. Lee and he said "You're doing the right thing, trusting your instincts and aggressively treating this thing. It sounds like she did take a turn for the worse but you're so vigilant that you caught it in time, I think. Give her the SQ fluids every day, twice a day if you feel she needs it, and if she gets worse, bring her in tomorrow. I won't be in but they can get ahold of me at any time and I'll talk to them about Puddy."

I haven't given her the fluids yet today because she smelled the turkey when I opened the fridge and I gave her some and she really ate! And Coco Puff started to annoy her, so she nailed him!

Thanx are in order for your prayers and support and I'll keep you posted on how she's doing. As for me, I'm sooooo grateful. But exhausted. And I'm giving a party tonight, so I have to get things ready. Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, I'm gonna sleep in tomorrow.

Blessings,
Mary

That is so good to hear! Good grief, but I think Puddy is trying to use up your nine lives here!

I'm glad she's comfortable, hungry, and argumentative tonight.

I was feeling so sad and worried for your Puddy until I got to your last update! WAY TO GO Puddy, you have a loving and caring mommy!

[sandragonfly]

thank you puddy!!

I too am thrilled to hear she has go 'up' and is eating!

mary, have you tried raw diet? it has really, really helped my little spunky girl, star a lot. I can't promise you if these raw chunks will help yours too but should/have you try?

I'm (still) amazed at how it helped, improved my little furgirl.. she went sick so fast but recovering so well after we started.

she still has to do one set of (two) SQfluid (bags) everyweek to make sure she won't go downhill again!

I know how heartaching and scary this is, please know I feel you very much and am giving you much of my comfort hugs as much as you need. and for pudster too if she would like for some!

best wishes, (((hugs)))
