Does your cat do this? I'm concerned. *Pidge is home *pix 6/4*

What if the two that needed the most medical attention were boarded together and your catsitter looked after the others like you had planned?

I thought about that, too, and it might be doable. I'll talk it over w/Dr. Lee when I take Pidge in next week and see what he says about boarding Puddy. However, when I mentioned it once before, he said that he felt it would stress her too much because she turns into a Tazmanian devil. He said that he has seen cats die from getting so upset and that Puddy is a prime candidate. I'm not trying to be difficult and bat down all your suggestions, truly I'm not. I just have a bad feeling about boarding Puddy, actually about leaving her at all at this point. Pidge will be ok; early CRF is manageable. I was just upset last night because it felt like it all was coming down on me at once. It's Puddy that's my main concern. But she's doing better than she was the last time she was at the vet hospital, so Dr. Lee may change his opinion, who knows.

I completely understand. I can't/won't board Morgan because stress causes his sugar levels to increase. I'm going out of town for parts of 3 days in July and am trying to figure out who to have to come look after my babies. I'm usually the one that looks after everyone's pets. But I'm going to find someone I trust to come and look after him and pay them well because I don't want to risk having his sugar levels go up and having to go back on insulin. We're doing great now, I'm not rocking the boat. So I know exactly where you are coming from with being careful about boarding.

I was thinking just boarding the two cats...and hopefully your catsitter could handle the rest. LET US CHIP IN OK??? Silly girl!

It isn't a sure thing that I'll be going out to LA for a visit anyhow. I'm having work done on my enclosed patio that started out w/just installing a new tile floor and it turned out to be a huge project due to ants, so I'm in the middle of that and that's a big expense. Plus I have blood in my mouth in the morning again and I've got to get that cleared up, so it may not be the best time for me to go. I appreciate all the encouragement, though, seriously.

Oh gosh... I hope the girls will be ok.

I totally understand about not wanting to board them. I'd be so upset if I did that and then came home to find that one of my kids got so stressed he ended up deathly ill (or worse). I couldn't handle that one, that's for sure.

Will keep Pidge and Puddy in my thoughts and prayers. Big hugs for you too, Mary!

I'm so sorry to hear about the results of both of your girls bloodwork. I hope that they'll both continue to do well. I'll continue to keep them in my thoughts and prayers.
