Peanut asks for prayers - New update (pg 6)

[ramanth]

I'm sorry I just found this now. Poor snotty Peanut. I hope she shakes whatever it is! *hugs for her and you!*

[Bengalz]

Peanut honey don't be upset at us hoomans for smiling at you for blowing snotty bubbles You're just so adorable no matter what you do that we have to smile.

Sending lots of kisses and hugs your way and get well wishes to make that nasty cold disappear. Keep getting better baby.

[Vermontcat]

Aww Peanut, please feel better soon.
If your new nickname is going to be Snotty then Samantha's nickname should be Snorey because she can snore up a storm some days.
Debbie, please give Peanut some extra hugs and kisses from me.

Oh Peanut! I don't care if they're calling you a little snotty - you're still one of my favorite kitties on PT. Your almost twin Mitzi has her little white mitts held in prayer for you that you're feeling better and not blowing snotty bubbles very soon. Mishi sends goofy head-bumpies too. Get well soon, dear!

I sure hope that you feel better soon Peanut. I've been having the similar problems with Sky and he's been on some allergy meds and antibiotic ointment for his eyes. I was also calling him Mr. Snuffleupagus. He finished his meds this evening so hopefully he'll also be feeling better soon. I think that he had a reaction to his annual FVRCP shot. Did Peanut have her annual shot recently or are you not giving her any more shots? Get well soon Princess Peanut.

Snotty is fine, get rid of it any way you can!

and, yes, YOU can be SNOTTY, too, just like a little princess!

Debbie, I hope that Peanut is better this morning. I do understand, completely, how worried you are. Give her a gentle hug from me, please.

Debbie,

Did the vet say anything about kitty asthma?? Mollie Rose has had this condition for a long time. I give her prednisone when the asthma gets really bad (this heat and humidity isn't helping any). Poor Peanut. I'll keep her in my prayers.

[Barbara]

I would also be interested in hearing what the vet thinks it is. I hope anyway she's getting better- but I would feel better if I had an idea.......

[catland]

I hope you're feeling better Peanut. I was also wondering if it could be an allergy - maybe to something new?

[Randi]

Debbie, I so hope Peanut will feel better soon. It sounds like a nasty cold, and that is certainly no fun! ... Could it be some kind of allergy?

Please give the little Princess gentle scritchies and kisses from me - Fister sends purrs and headbumpies.

Thanks so much everyone. I don't know what the vet thinks it is. Lori, I missed the same thing you did because I never got a straight answer out of him to what he thinks it is. Just some congestion I suppose. I thought it might be allergies too, but it's just too coincidental that she started with this only a few days after CJ got over his sniffles. I think it might just be a cold and she's getting over it already, and that's why there was no fever. She was still snuffly this morning and sneezed a few times, but....she's still eating like a horse and drinking good, so I'm worried, but not overly worried.

I forgot to mention that she's lost 2 pounds in the last year. She's down to 5 1/2 pounds.....sound familiar Logan? I know we had just discussed this and I called the vet and asked about her weight, but the girl at the front desk must have gotten the dates wrong because the vet confirmed that it's been a year since they weighed her and she's lost 2 pounds. He didn't seem concerned with that because it's normal for old cats to loose weight, and he said as long as she's eating she's doing good.

One more little laugh at the expense of my poor snotty girl. Sometimes she is a little off balance and shaky on her back legs - another thing I've noticed happens in older cats. So she was walking towards me when a big sneeze came and almost knocked her over. I know it's sad, but it was funny too. It was one of those sneezes where you feel you blew the top of your head off. She sneezed, almost fell over, caught herself, shook her head, then continued on as if nothing had happened.....probably secretly hoping CJ didn't see that.

Thanks again everyone. Keep the good thoughts and prayers going and I'll continue to keep you updated until she's all better.

I may not post often but I have been checking in to see updates. She's always in my thoughts.
I hope she continues to improve. All paws crossed here.

The Tubbies Angels are with Peanut now, trying to comfort her, and let her know that they are there for her.
They are bringing her love, comfort and shrimps.
We are praying that Peanuts can beat this cold.

Awwwww! I know what that's like. They sound like babies when they sneeze don't they?

Get well soon Peanut!
