Tragedy at the Layne household... VIDEO ADDED POST 177!

[orangemm]

Awww, sweet boy........you are looking better now, Andy. And I'm glad to hear that you are eating a bit more. Let meowmie feed you, you need all the goodies you can get.

I know you hate that collar, but once your little ear starts to heal, it will be better.

Gentle scritches to you, Andy, and (((hugs))) to your meowmie........

We all know you and Andy are in for a rough road for a while, but it's comforting to know that everything is moving in the right direction. Our thoughts are with you both.

Fondly,
Pat

Poor Andy, he does look funny with that collar. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he gets better sooner. I know he'll get better.

What a huge relief that Andy was able to come home with you last night! I know it had to be so upsetting when he had to go back to the vet with his fever; I'm glad they were able to make some adjustments and let him go back home with Meowmie.

Andy is just a beautiful guy, and you'd never guess what he's been through recently by looking at him! He is so lucky to have you to take such good care of him -- now don't forget to take care of yourself as well...!

Love & hugs to all of you,
Diana

I'm back first thing this morning for the update. I'm glad Andy got to come home. I woke up an hour before I needed to and tried to go to sleep and all I could do was think of Andy. Needless to say I didn't go back to sleep. I hope you're getting rest and that Andy is also. Please let us know what your vet says today. Is he having the ultrasound and x-rays today?

[jenluckenbach]

Thanks for the update. Still sending prayers for Andy.

Will he be going to your vet today?

Thanks so much everyone!

Jen, No his appointment is scheduled for Thursday at 2pm.
BUT he will probably go to the regular vet IF anything changes, IE. Temp changes, or anything is amiss. I will take him back to the ERV tonight( rechecks are free or reduced there now) just to get a quick once over.

He is still doing good. He is such a very loving and sweet boy

The estimate for his hematoma, anesthesia, exam and pain injection is 271.50. That excludes take home meds and antibiotics since he is already on them.

Thank you all for caring so much about my boy. I have told him all about you all, and he purrs away

I was thinking about you first thing this morning so I thought I'd check in.
Sorry to hear he had a high fever, but I'm very glad it came down with all the meds.

Belly scratches to you Andy

Oh my word how horrible for the both of you. I am so extremely sorry and it is all I can do not to just bawl for you right now. I am so glad your Andy is home and I will so send positive thoughts your way. Oh give him a hug from me too. This has always been one of my fears so to read about you going through this is just breaking my heart. No one can doubt this was just a horrible accident.

Thank you so very much for the pictures of Andy. He is just beautiful.

I am amazed at how good he looks. I know he can beat this, and he will. He looks healthy and strong, should be able to make it just fine, as long as he has you there providing him with some good TLC. I have not been able to get you both off of my mind since Fri night, and I'm glad that each post gets more positive. Keep it up and send me a PM if you would like me to send you some $ to help you out. I will do what I can.

Update! Sick of them yet?

Andy is doing well, and he ate another jar of baby food. Along with really smashed and pureed fancy feast, he REALLY liked that. His temp is at 103.6... not so bad I think. He is using the potty pan reguarly.

People have asked me for donation info. If you would like to donate, my paypal is [email protected]. If you want to mail a check, PM me. IF you want to speak to my vets office, just to confirm, please pm me as well, so I can give you contact information. ALSO, if anyone needs invoices, I can mail them directly to you, please leave in the PM your address, and I will try to get them mailed off next week. I thank everyone so much, and MORE importantly than donations, Andy needs prayers. I want him to better, and to put this whole terrible thing behind us. The guilt wont ever go away, BUT I can make it up to him.

I apprieciate all of the thoughts, prayers, and nice pms I have recieved. The support has been amazing, and I could not be more grateful! And also thank you so much for not making this a MORE difficult time by making me feel worse. That means so much. I needed support, not ridicule. You all gave that to me.

My family (some who are NOT animal people) have even been calling regularly to check in on Andy. That poor fella has so many people who care about him, even people who have never met him. He would not believe it. He was just an abused throwaway stray, wanting a furrever home when I took him in. So were his 4 other brothers and sisters. He sure would feel special if he truly understood and could read these posts!

I will try to post a video a bit later, maybe of feeding time! Be back!

I am heading to bed. Just wanted you to know that Andy was on my mind and in my prayers. Hugs to you and sweet Andy.
