Big, big, BIG prayers needed for Allie- UPDATE on #148

Johanna, hopefully her eating instincts kick in, as in katlady's case.

Eat Allie Eat!

OK. Time to 'biggie size' my efforts. I have 2 more cans of A/D, a target of 3/4 can each day, and two large syringes! I also have one more B12 for Saturday, and 5 days of anti-naseau injections I start today.

I will go to my vet for a instruction on injecting, and get some fluids in her, too.

This am, Allie drank from the bathroom faucet on her own. I cried, put her back on the floor, got in the shower with little peeks at her, and she climbed back up there and drank some more! Course, then I had to get back out and lift her to the ground. She hasn't done that in two weeks I bet. First time I have seen her voluntarily take fluids.

Then, J and I went into her room and laid on his bed. She finally got out of the drawer (she is in his lower clothes drawer, always has loved to do that) and snuggled with us. Weak, yes...but, she actually showed interest!!! J offered her some catnip and she licked it a little...another good sign.

<sigh>. Is it enough to say the tide is turning? I don't think so, but, I am happy with it. I hope the anti-naseau injection and the fluids this afternoon put her over the hurdle. I also plan on taking her outside this evening, for some fresh air, and to help stir her interest in life.

Well, that certainly sounds encouraging to me. I think you're right; the tide is turning. Better and better......

This is a very encouraging update and I do believe that she's slowly getting better. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

That's great news. Keep it up Allie.

Like I said in Myndi's thread - hope springs eternal.
