Mary, of course this is going to be rough, please don't think you're doing anything wrong! Poor Specs has suffered a trauma; give it a little time, it'll be OK. More prayers....

Aww, I hope Specs feels better soon.

[Catty1]

The pain will diminish as he heals, of course...thanks to you, Specs will not have the constant discomfort he did before.

Prayers for dear Specs that he rests and recovers soon.

Sending you good thoughts and prayers for Specs! Those sore toofies will feel all better real soon, Specs!

I'm glad that you took him to the vet when you did. Sometimes meowmies just know when something isn't right with their babies. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way for a quick recovery.

Specs hid in the basement and I had to crawl on my belly to get him out from under the Hoosier cabinet. Normally I would've let him alone but the swelling in his face was bad and I was concerned about bleeding. I brought him in bed w/me and he stayed for a while but he just couldn't relax. He'd lie on his side for a short time, then he'd just sit up. He looked so uncomfortable. I kept checking on him during the night and at 2:00 AM I had a nature call and he took that opportunity to jump out of bed and go downstairs. There are no litter boxes on the main floor and I was concerned that he'd have to go and would be too weak or dizzy to walk upstairs to the spare litter box so I kept checking on him. Finally, I decided to let him be. This morning when I got up at 6:00, he was standing in the hallway.

Hopefully, he'll feel like eating a little canned food this morning b/c I have to give him his antibiotic. It's a liquid but I imagine it'll bother his stomach if he doesn't have food in him. I also have more pain meds to give him but that makes me nervous b/c I have to be out for several hours today. I don't want him stumbling around. At least the swelling in his face has gone down somewhat but I'd still appreciate those prayers.

Awwwww Specs - you just don't know what hit you - do you??? Just relax and take it easy, and you'll be feeling lots better in no time, and all this will just seem like a bad dream.

Mary - I'm sure he's going to be just fine. I'm certain he's just totally spooked by the whole ordeal and doesn't understand why he feels like he does. Imagine going to sleep, and waking up and feeling like a big old bus ran over you! Add to that, that he's a Fraidy to start with - well is it any wonder that he's acting like he is?????

Prayers continue for his speedy recovery, from me and the Fuzzbuttz.
