My sick kitty

[Freedom]

What treatment has been prescribed? Was a thyroid issue also found? They often - but not always - go together.

I've had 2 who were CF and have passed. One was on sub q fluids for about 6 months. I have one now in early stage CRF. So far, I am managing this one with lots of canned /wet food.

She is in vet hospital and they are giving her fluids and an antibiotic. I will be hearing from vet soon. I will let you know how her numbers are doing.

Day 3- Vet called and there was no significant change today. Vet said this sometimes happens. He changed meds a little to see if this helps. He felt that there was still hope.

The vets do see this often. Sadly it is not a rare thing. So if he feels there is hope, that is good!

Please keep us updated! Paws crossed for improvement!

Prayers and good healing energies are being sent for Princess.

I have been giving fluids every day for years to two of my cats who are kidney-challenged. They both seem like they'll keep going for a long time.

More prayers for dear Princess.

I'm so sorry, Sue. I hope that there will be positive change!! I will be hoping and praying that Princess will make a positive recovery and remain princess of the household!

If your vet feels encouraged, then I'd go w/that. I had a cat who was in renal failure, gave her subQ fluids for years and she lived a good life. It's easy to do and your kitty will feel so much better. Looking forward to a good report. Keep the faythe.
