Amber has an injury to her leg.

Poor Amber. Poor Jen. The only good part of this is that she has such a wise and compassionate human to help her through this hardest time. {hug!}

Love, Columbine

Prayers for poor Amber. I wonder if there is an infection that is spreading a bit. Would a shot of antibiotics be worth a try? It might help her be a bit more comfy.

Prayers and hugs to you and to Amber, who is blessed with a caring Mom.

She is (has been) on antibiotics. Vet says the pills are as good as the injection in this case.

[jennielynn1970]

Maybe her tummy just isn't up to food with the antibiotics?? I hope that's all it is.

Feel better, sweet Amber. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

Things sure change fast around here.

Amber doesn't want to eat, but beyond that, her foot seems swollen and painful today.

It may be time. She deserves peace. We'll see until tomorrow. I gave her a pain pill to get her through today.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

Oh Jen, I'm so very sorry. Healing thoughts and prayers coming your way.

[Medusa]

Oh dear, I hope not. Maybe she's having one of her bad days but if it is time, our prayers are w/you and Amber, Jen.

OK, mixed review.

She ate tonight, possibly only because I gave her an appetite stimulant pill a couple hours earlier.

But her skin is starting to slogh off her foot, so the foot soaks are causing her pain. (She REALLY protested tonight).

[Catty1]

Poor Amber...I mean, it's great if the affected skin is coming off, but the saltwater soaks would really sting.

She does deserve peace...but several things...someone mentioned her appetite being off because of the antibiotics. Would Forti Flora or Pepcid help her?

Would giving her a painkiller closer to soak time help? Dear little Amber...I hope the infection starts to heal so the salt won't hurt as much.

Major PT Prayers to Amber, and to her devoted (and tired) Mom.

[Anikaca77]

My prays are coming for Amber.

[Medusa]

How is Amber today? Better, I hope.

[smokey the elder]

Poor kitty. I hope she feels better.

[jenluckenbach]

Hard to say how she is doing. She eats, but not her full amount.

I have her foot bandaged because the blackened skin is peeling and I want to kleep it clean (and brevent bleeding).

She totally hates having the foot touched/soaked. The leg does not hurt her, and she gets around fine. She even uses the bent and bandaged foot sometimes. But she is a skinny as a rail and this foot is NOT going to get better.

We shall see what time brings.

[Catty1]

Blackened skin? Poor Amber!

Glad to hear she is eating a little, and I hope she is comfy. Give her some gentle hugs for me?

Prayers for you and sweet Amber, from all of us in RI.
