I fear that my senior Boo is on his decline; *Update #109; 10/13

[Medusa]

So far so good. He kept the meds down and he slept w/me for part of the night. He hopped on my lap this morning and he's here right now so I'm feeling pretty good about that. Thanx for the prayers and good wishes, friends.

Good going, Boo! {{{hugs}}} to you and your Mom!

[Catty1]

Yay...hope he continues to feel better and better!

[Medusa]

One thing that I forgot to mention is that Dr. Lee said Boo was dehydrated and that I should start once weekly subQ's. I hate to stick a needle into that boney body, especially knowing how he hates to be fussed with. I'll give it a whirl but if it's too much hassle, I don't want to stress him and I'll not continue w/them. Dr. Lee didn't say it was an absolute must.

Just do what you think is best for Boo. That has always served him well in the past. I hate giving any meds and treatments to my cats unless it is absolutely necessary. You are the best person to make that judgment call when it comes to fluids.

Glad to hear Boo is feeling somewhat better.
If you put an ice cube in his water would that make him drink more? It seems to for my cats. Maybe they just are drinking more to try and get the ice but it seems to help them.

Prayers continuing for you both.

Hi Medusa, How is sweet Boo doing? You both have been in my thoughts and remain very much in my prayers. If Boo is up to it, would you give him some gentle lovies from me?
