I'm sorry to hear this.

Thank you all for praying for Yang. I know that when Melissa sees this it will make her feel better.

She does not have a computer, so she gets on when she can...

She said that Yang ate a little tonight, and is not losing any more weight. I hope that means he will get/stay stable.

You should hear how he USED to sound, compared to now. He sounds like a different kitty, so weak

We used to "chat" over the phone.. He is siamese and VERY talkative!

I am terrified for when the time my kitties get older, It makes me sick!

Melissa, still praying for Yang. Please give him a kiss from me.

Thank you Katie for posting for me and thank everyone who is praying for Yang. He went to the vet on Saturday and got more fluids. He hasn't lost anymore weight but he is only 8 lbs now. At his prime he was 12 to 14 pounds, once he was 16 for awhile. He has lost so much muscle mass in his shoulders and hinds legs that he sometimes has trouble walking or standing up. As Katie said, his voice is completely different than it use to be. He had a very loud Siamese meow and now it is very weak and makes me so sad when I hear it. The vet said he looked more alert compared to the starry eyed way he has been. He is on appetite pills and well as pepcid for his tummy. He has trouble with IBD too. His blood glucose is regulated. I am not sure of his age. I know for sure he is at least 13 mbut probably is a little older. He doesn't have hardly any teeth anymore. When he lost his other canine tooth not long ago is when his eating dropped and he started having more problems. He is eating only canned food now.

Ying was his twin brother that died 2 years ago November 16th. His death was real traumatic for me and I never have been able to talk about it. Ying and Yang were sooo close( they actually looked identical) that I had to put Yang on antidepressants for awhile after Ying died. During the whole month of November especailly the 16th I was soo scared that Yang would die. Everything always ahppened to them at the same time. They both became diabetic at the same time, their blood glucose use to even be the same when they first became diabetic. I was so glad when November was over. It seems like the holidays is when I tend to lose my babies so it is real hard this time of year.

Catty thanks for posting pics of my boy! I will have to take some of him now and when I get to a computer that I can post pics on I will post them. That won't be until the weekend though. Please keep Yang in your prayers!
Thanks,
Melissa
