    I hope Ripley feels better soon.
    He was such an adorable kitten and he is such a handsome boy now.
    Give him a gentle hug from me.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    Thank you all.

    Ripley came home yesterday afternoon and was one very angry boy after all the poking and proding he got at the vet. In fact, he didn't let her finish all the exam...that's my boy! He's feeling better already from the fluids. The vet said everything else on him was extremely healthy for a 14 year old cat and she was optimistic that with supportive care (sub-q fluids and other options as it advances) he will be with us for a while.

    She says we did catch the kidney failure early and that based on past blood work he has had chronic kidney disease for a few years. When she started telling me about how some cats can live for several years with supportive care I had to tell her about our own Tubby. He's now my inspiration for Ripley.

    One other thing, this morning I got to sleep in. Ripley didn't come wake me up and cry. He waited to greet me in the bathroom when I first got up like he used to always do. That's a great sign!

    Thank you all for your support and good thoughts and prayers. We can definitely use them all because I'm not ready to lose Ripley any time soon.

    From Decker with Love
