Paris is very sick little girl

[heidiv]

Oh thank you I haven't been able to get on here much for an update but this week has been terrible she had to go to the University of Minnesota where she spent two nights she was set up with a tube which they fed her through then on Wednesday they sent us home with the tube and feeding syringes where we had to feed her through her tube well needless to say she did well the first night then she took a turn for the worst vomiting started last night at 12:00 and continued until around 1:30 this afternoon. So we loaded her up drove her the hour and half the the University were they admitted her into the ICU once again where she is getting more fluids via IV and they will start up the tube feeding in the AM. They are going to keep her in the pet hospital until the feeding tube is removed and she is able to eat on her own. I am exhausted I have a angry employer I am sure...My money is gone and I can only hope that she will make a good recovery and come home soon! This has been quite the ordeal. All I care about is that she is home with me and that this doesn't become a chronic problem...Sometimes it chronic...I have to look into pet insurance because this is pretty hard to pay for. I have thousands into her at this point. I can only imagine they won't cover her at this point because she now probably has a Pre existing condition? If that works the same as humane insurance?? Please keep the prayers coming and more than words can say I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all of your thoughts and prayers... You are all wonderful and thoughtful...
More than I can say about a lot of other people in my life...I get the usual stupid comments that people say...They don't understand what the bond can be between a person and their Siamese...They are so faithful...she was trying to make me stop sobbing all day today by trying to comfort me even though her little body was weak so selfless on her part, so loyal to their human I have never in my life owned such a wonderful creature...Paris is my rock without my rock I just don't know what I will do... She means more to me than I can put into words... I have 4 others I do understand but I must say there is something to that bond you have with your "heart" kitty its just different. Those of you who know what I am talking about will understand..

Just catching up here. Oh my, poor Paris! Poor you. Hugs to both.

How old is she?

Yes, pet insurance does exclude pre existing conditions. Check into it anyway.

Heidi, you can try here too, though I don't know about pre-existing: http://www.imom.org/

Paris is about 5 years old...I am going to go and talk with my vet about this on Monday it can't cost anymore than what her vet bills alone have cost us this year...I think its well worth the cost.

Prayers for your Paris and for you as well!

I'm so sorry to hear that she's still very sick. Hopefully you'll be able to make payments to your vet but I know that ER vets want everything paid in full so in the past I've had to use my credit cards and then try to pay them off. Everyone here understands how you can form a very strong bond with an animal so you sure won't get the reponse of "She's only a cat." I've never had children so my furkids really are like my kids to me so I know exactly where you're coming from. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent Paris's way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
