Thank you for missing me.
Lucy is one of three cats in our house. I am concerned about the other cats getting this.
I did go to the vet and did the blood work and he even did an x-ray of her abdomin. He said that it is inflamed and it is making the fluid. He gave us some medication... but is basically telling us the best thing to do is to put her to sleep. It would be nice if she turned out like spencer....nothing wrong..... I don't know where this will lead us. It's hard to put her to sleep, but we don't want her to suffer. She has had this for a week today (Saturday)
My husband is waiting for her to bounce back to her old self. I don't think it is going to happen. My husband is all tore up about it. He sat out with her on the porch last night for four hours. Everytime she heard a bird...her eyes would brighten up. She wanted to chase the butterflies so bad. He finally put her down in the grass. She wanted to run and play so bad, but all she could do was just get a foot or two and then she would fall down from being weak.
What do you think about her being put to sleep. I never thought that I would have a problem with it. But I do. I just keep waiting for that miracle of her bouncing back. I think she would be ok if she could eat...but she won't. Last night was the first night she has gone without throwing up the water she is drinking.
Thank you so much for reading my long post. I really appreciate all of your comments.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails, Explore, Dream.
