My 23 year old cat

[Theresa]

thank you for all your prayers and well wishes! The good thing, she has had no seizures, her pheno is now 1/4 tab. every 12 hrs, she has made it over 24 hrs since her last one! I am quite happy for that. But this morning she doesn't have much of any appetite. She doesn't want to eat from her bowl. She will lick the food off my hand though. So that is what I am doing. At noon I am going to be giving her the first shot of procrit. I am a little nervous--and am hoping she has no adverse reaction to it. I guess all I can do is hope for a miracle, and hope she doesn't give up on me.

I'm sooo mad right now! I can't measure the procrit in the needle without air bubbles. Going to the vet with the bottle and the needles, and maybe he'll help me. I also needs more sub-q supplies.


I just pray for no more seizures. So far, so good.....

Sorry to hear about your kitty's problems. I will be praying for you all too.

That's why you see people tapping the syringe on TV shows - to get the bubbles out. I home the pharmacist was able to help you!

I give one of my guys subQ fluids regularly and I order my stuff off the Internet (because it is sooooo much cheaper than at the vet's office). I also have my local Target pharmacy order the fluids in by the case lot (so I only pay $21 for a 12 1-litre bags of lactated ringers solution).

I was also talking with a friend of mine who was having the same problems with the insulin needles for her cat. You might want to see about getting a different lot number of needs (it will be marked on the packaging).

But prayers are coming your way
