I need PT PRAYERS for BRODIE!!! *FINALLY MONDAY*

[smokey the elder]

I've never heard of silica gel being carcinogenic. Asbestos, a FORM of the same mineral, is; mainly because of the shape of the crystals. The silica may be irritating; it's the same stuff as sand, after all.

I hope Brody gets through all this OK!

Well I hadn't either. Otherwise I wouldn't have used it. Regardless of whether it's true or not, I'd rather not take the risk.

Christa, I wouldn't be one bit surprised if Brodie turns into an absolute angel baby when he comes home. That is how Ripley was years ago when he had to stay at the vet (wild) but then he would be the biggest baby as soon as he was in the house. He was clingy and sweet and just wanted to be around someone - which was a big deal since he used to hate to be pet much or even around us much back then.

Hope they can get to the bottom of what is making him sick soon.

I hope you're right, Lori. I hope he's still the same sweet kitty when he gets home. I don't want him to change at all.

Now for a Sunday Update?

Actually, there's nothing to update. The vet's office is officially closed today, meaning no phone calls and no visits. So you can imagine how long this day is going to be for both me and for my poor little guy that's in the hospital today with no visitors!

Josie is worrying me though. She is acting so sad. I think she finally has started really missing him. She's been clingy and vocal all morning. Very very sad. 3 nights so far without him - surely she realizes that he's not here. We've noticed her looking for him. She'll hear sounds in the house and run to see if it's him.

They have a routine, every night at 10 o'clock when she uses the litter box, he always chases her from the litterbox through the house . . . it's like a game to them. Anyway, every night that he's been gone, Josie gets in the litterbox at 10, jumps out and runs through the house. Just like she thinks he's going to chase her. Isn't that sad?

I wish I knew more today. Just going to try to get through this loooong day. Get the litterbox changed . . . get his room cleaned up & ready for him to come back. Poor guy . . . I just hope that this day passes quick for him too.

Poor Josie! This is really sad! Wish there was a way to let her know that this was no good bye forever!

I hope you can bring him home tomorrow!

Extra hugs for poor lonely Josie!!! Brodie sounds like a Ralph Syracuse clone at the vet's. Ralph hisses and growls at me, then when I open the cage door, he climbs up onto my shoulder and all is forgiven!!! Brodie will do the same!!! Hope there is MORE good news tomorrow and Brodie can come HOME!!!

I would think someone goes into check on Brodie today,
for food and water refreshing and cleaning litter box. Also to check on him medically.

Oh yeah, definitely. They're just closed to the public on Sunday . . . and me. I've driven by there on Sunday before and seen cars parked in the side lot. Even seen the vet's truck parked there. So I know that they work on Sundays. Guess they have to. Just wish *I* could go visit him. Soon though . . . not much longer and he'll be coming home!
