What a handsome and beautiful boy Punky is!

Prayers that the next few hours on the meds will make a difference.

Hang in there, Punky - you are very very loved.

I'm praying for Punky

Just a small update on Punky. Still not eating much of anything. A few
bites at best & then walks away. Had a soft & bloody stool this morning.
He sleeps a lot. He has found a bright sunny spot in the dining room floor
and he has settled there for now. He walks very slow & carefully, no running
no playing at all. One bright spot is he is very receptive to gentle tummy
rubs and he seems to enjoy that.

Oh, Liz. I am so sorry. Can you try warming up some wet food in the micro? It might temp him some. Still praying for Punky.

I was so sorry to read about Punky not feeling well. Prayers for all of you that it isn't FIP, and resolves soon

Poor sweet thing. Glad to hear he's still enjoying the tummy rubs though.

More prayers heading out your way!

Johanna, He won't eat any wet food at all. Some of the canned stuff
with sauce, he will sniff the liquid part, but that's it. Punky is still showing
some interest in his favorite kibble, but only eats a few at a time. I do free
feed so it's always available if he wants it.

I know he's lost weight, but he still interested in watching (and reacting)
to the birds outside in the yard, or sleeping in the sunshine, or getting some
special attention from me. He acts good sometimes,othertimes he seems
very weak. He does not seem to be in any pain, but definately, not his old
bossy self. I might be naive, but I'm hoping he'll fool everybody & start
getting better any day now. Maybe the Vet was wrong about him.

I do hope this is the case! Prayers for the both of you.

I know now that this is a fight that Punky won't win & I've scheduled
an appt. for 1:15 today at the Vets. Punky is getting weaker by the day
and his eyes are full of pain. I am just being selfish to want to keep him
with me, but it just kills me that his life has to end this way. He was a big
strong boy and he has become a shell of his former self. I cannot let him
suffer any more with no hope of ever getting better. My poor Punky.
