Mitzi - not again :(

I'm thinking of you and Mitzi today too. As it turns out, Phinehas is joining Mitzi for an ultrasound today...so hopefully both of our kitties will be strong for us and come out just fine.

I'm sending lots of positive thoughts to Mitzi, and I hope it's something easily treatable! Good thoughts to you also for your operation.

Oh no! However Phinehas won't need to have his belly shaved, right? They're transporting Mitzi to San Leandro to do the scans - I'm not even sure where San Leandro is, except that it's somewhere across the Bay!

I hope that everything went well today. Any news yet? I hope that Mitzi is doing well. Please update us when you can.

Initial report: kidney stone and a cyst on her kidney Will know more later. This doc is so non-responsive and I've just been crazy busy with work and my own health things going on. Nothing serious for me, just many medical appointments right now.

Well the vet finally called and I could actually talk to her. Mitzi has a cyst on her right kidney and a stone in her left kidney. Neither are causing any blockage right now. No surgery to remove the cyst - just a change in Mitzi's diet and regular monitoring of her kidney function. She seems to be ok for now, at least we know what's going on and what to watch for.

I also scheduled a teeth cleaning for her with another vet who will do it in a safer environment, without anesthesia. It won't be until the end of March, but I think I'll be more able to handle it both physically and financially by then - it's also MUCH cheaper than what this vet charges.

WHEW!! That is good news!!! Glad to hear Miss Mitzi will have only a change in diet!
