Amber is having pain.

**jenluckenbach** · 12-04-2006, 06:13 PM

thank God the surgery is just half a day away.

Amber desperately wants to eat, but gets scared away after a few bites by a shot of pain. She has barely eaten enought to keep a bird alive the last few days.

So, tonight she CAN'T have food, nor tomorrow. So I hope by Wed. she feels perky enough to actually EAT!

But Amber is a fighter!! For those who don't know, when we adopted Amber she was a 7 month old, 4.5 pound kitten who came from our local shelter. She came down with the WORST URI ever! Would not eat and needed to be hospitlized (over Thanksgiving of that year, as a matter of fact) for IV treatment and 24 hour care. She lost weight down to 3 pounds (now imagine a 7 month old at only 3 pounds....she was pathetic) but she pulled through! Our miracle (expen$ive) baby. But never a problem since, except for her teeth.

So pray for her nightmare to be over SOON!! thanks.

That must be horrible watching poor Amber in pain. Plus, I can just imagine how hard it was to hear that scream when all you wanted to do was feed her.

Sending many positive vibes for a successful and healing surgery. Hang in there Amber, you'll be better soon!

Hoping that Amber's surgery goes well and the results are a pain free kitty!

It is still VERY early here. She will go to the vet in 3 hours. I do not know the actual time of the surgery.

Silly Amber is feeling quite well, anyway, she has been running around like a kitten. I guess fasting agrees with her. (LOL)

I won't be able to update until this evening, but I'll let you know how it goes.
