Prayers for my Pidgelet, please! *Update 11/23*; she's losing weight; post #285

Mary, I am so sorry that you received such grim news on Pidge. Prayers that the meds will give her more time with you and make her more comfortable. Hearing her wailing must be heartwrenching for you.

Dr. Lee most definitely needs to have a staff meeting! There were serious mistakes and oversights made that could have cost your precious Pidge her life!!

Continued prayers,
Mary

Hi, Mary:

When I was looking up some info on Pidge's condition, it seems that it happens mostly in younger cats! Tell dear Pidge this is the wrong way to have a second childhood!

I hope the meds help and she won't wail anymore and can be comfortable.

So that she doesn't exert herself up the stairs...can you use a baby gate, or carry her in one of those baby snugglies? The latter may be a silly idea, but maybe a thought after Wednesday.

I hope she has some comfy quality time with you yet.

I'm just not sure what's causing the wailing yet. It could be anxiety because she seems to want me nearby but that isn't always possible. Thank goodness my office is in my home again because if I had to leave every day, I don't know what I'd do. As it is, it's difficult to see clients w/all this commotion going on. She also does it upon exertion, so the Atenolol should help if she's experiencing chest pain. I thought about keeping her isolated so that she doesn't exert herself but that seems to stress her. I think she still wants to be w/the rest of the Fur Posse, Boo Bear in particular of course, and when she isn't, she wails. That may be why she went downstairs last night. When I put everyone to bed in the basement, she started to follow because that's the usual routine but there was no way I would let her out of my sight last night seeing that she didn't have all her meds.
