UPdate on Ellie-mae...

[krazyaboutkatz]

This is wonderful news. I'm so glad to hear that she's eating better, healing well, and feeling better too.

I'm so glad to hear that Ellie-Mae is feeling better today.
Her Alaskan Auntie worried about her all night long.
Sounds like Ellie-Mae still has most of her 9 lives.

Goodness, you wouldn't be a PT Mom if you didn't worry to the point of tears when one of your babies isn't doing well! I can't count the times I have cried and tossed and turned over one of mine. I am so happy Dear Little Ellie-Mae is improving! Give her kissies from me!

[carole]

thank you , you are all so kind and your words of comfort and understanding mean so much, not such a good day today, however has eaten a little , but i feel she needs to drink more, and would be happy if she ate a bit more, but the drinking is what is most important at this stage i think,heard two sneezes from her this morning, had me petrified, that the cat flu was going to take over her again,however no more so far,she has only coughed once and it was very rattley.
We are certainly not near out of the woods yet, she has a long way to go to complete recovery, honestly if she ever gets another tumour lord forbid, i would not do this again, still i feel it is the dental that is causing her more problems, but one can never be sure.

This has really taken its toll on Ellie,i can only hope as each day goes by she will continue to improve, so far things are not bad, but they are not that good either, but i guess after two major ops you cannot expect anything else.

she certainly is sleeping a lot, but then cats always do anyhow, and probably even more so when in recovery.

Please continue to keep my sweet girl in your thoughts,and Auntie Lisa you get some sleep, you are so sweet to worry about her like you do, she is one very lucky little cat, even if she does not know it.

Will keep you all posted, cannot wait until i can post some better news.

Well it is now day five, ellie is slowly progressing, ate a little bit more today, but is resting up ,she came downstairs for her breakfast today, not that she ate very much, but still she made the effort, she has been back upstairs most of the day,and sleeping, i gave her my lexies pink pillow, lexie sleeps with her head on this every night,and it appears little ellie loves it too, lexie is probably a bit put out, as she and nikki have been locked out of the bedroom the last five days, ellie needs quiet time and so does her meowmie.

Anyhow here is Ellie,looking peaceful, you can see her fur is still quiet ragged looking, but hey she has been through a lot, she was grooming a bit today, all good signs,and have not heard her cough or that rattle in her chest, fingers and all paws crossed.

Oh, that picture is just ADORABLE, Ellie-mae just resting there and slowly getting stronger and healing.

Keep on keeping on, you sweet, darling little thing! You have been through so much, but I think the worst is past.

oh Pat i so hope you are right, i had no sooner posted this when i heard that cough again, i know after having the tube down their throat this can happen, but i would have thought by now it would be better, she only does it like twice a day, but it sounds bad,i would be a lot happier if she was showing a bit more improvement with her eating and drinking.

fingers and all paws crossed that each day she gets a little better, she has decided that upstairs is her safe place, which has worked out brilliantly for us, as i can keep her in our room with the door shut, away from everyone, the noises, and the other kitties.

She is just content to sleep on our bed, so that is good,well off to bed myself now, with my precious little Ellie beside me.

Thanks for your kind words they mean such a lot.
