Prayers for Keshaw!

[Flatcoatluver]

Well she is back home and eating a little bit. The vet gave her some cordisone and antibiotics. She took a whole bunch of tests and is thinking that it has something to do with her liver. I don't know much about liver, so I don't know if it's something that we can save her with.

The vet thinks she is going through the same thing she went through last year. So she thinks there is a big change we can get her back. But right now it's just a waiting game. She is going back into the vet tormorrow mourning.

Please countinue those PT prayers.

Great news! You go, Keshaw! (Literally. LOL)

GOOD NEWS!

I have read here on PT that if a cat doesn't eat for a long while, they can get what's called 'fatty liver disease'. I don't know much about it. But if she gets drinking and eating soon enough, hopefully that will help.

Great that she is using the box - get more better, Keshaw!

Along with your vets antibiotics you may want to ask about regualar electrolytes given to her.
I buy the electrolytes from revivalanimal online

http://www.revivalanimal.com
I have packages of it and mix it with water when i feel they are a bit dehydrated and not drinking enough.
I put it in a NON needle shringe and slowly give whoever needs it 2-3 milligrams 2-3 times a day for 2-4 days as needed.
When cats get liver problems or any problems from getting older sometimes they need extra fluids...they need a lot of water at that point in their life and if their not drinking it...i usually help them with the electrolytes.
Only once in a while.Not on a regualar basis.I wouldn't do it regualarly without the vets permission.
I always have it in the house for when i see a cat look sluggish.
It's been a blessing having the powdered stuff on hand.
Mix 1/2 tsp of electrolytes to 1/4 cup or 2 ounces of water.
leave it in refridgerator and discard after a few days.
