    MORE PRAYERS...please, Creator, save Kiri and return her to the person she loves, so she can have the wonderful life in store for her! And to ease her owner's anxiety at such a troubled time in her life.


    (When Pouncer was ill, I composed a little prayer off the top of my head...I hope no one finds this offensive. It's for Kiri and CID...and anything can only help!)

    Kidney failure is a dangerous thing but it does not have to be the immediate end. In a crisis they usually get IV fluids and that may do the trick. later it's about sub-q fluids and you and your freind can learn to administer them yourself.

    www.felinecrf.com

    gives the best advise.

    All the best for Kiri.

    Don't lose faith. The last time I took Puddy in, a vet there totally prepared me that I would probably have to have her PTS. And her kidney actually burst! So never say there's no hope. There's always hope. Hang on, Kiri. I really feel for you, CID.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Kiri girl is hanging in there! They're pumping fluids into her and trying to keep her warm, and they'll do more blood work this afternoon to see whether she's regaining any kidney function. Please keep my sweet little girl in your thoughts today.

    The good news is that Kiri is home and sitting on my lap right now.

    The bad news is that she's got a bad URI along with everything else. No wonder she's not wanting to eat! I hope I don't have to force-feed her, but whatever it takes.

    The worst news is that the vet thinks that there's some kind of hard-to-detect cancer underlying all of this. He said that he's seen several cats whose kidney failure was likely caused by the poisoned food (one died ), and none of them had their kidney functions bounce back the way Kiri's did. So he thinks that her problems are caused by something else.

    She's obviously a sick kitty right now, but I don't think she's ready to give up yet. I've got to get some food into her, though. I'm going to pick up some baby food for her--any suggestions as to what flavors might be tempting?
