Another sick kitty

Hey Wayne, that's great news she gains some weight.
Kitten keep up the good eating!

**Randi** · 09-30-2002, 03:47 PM

Oh Wayne, you don't need this on top of all the rest!

I hope Kitten will continue to eat, however little, - the food you're giving her is obviously helping.

It may take a while, but I really hope she'll pull through!

We'll keep our fingers and paws crossed for her!

Wayne, I'm so glad to hear that Kitten is eating and gaining weight.

All fingers and paws are still crossed here and prayers are still being sent for Kitten's full recovery.

Thanks all, for your responses. I know it is not popular to continue to post negative situations in one's cat experiences. But following on the heels of Pepper's demise, well, I suppose you all can understand.

Kitten continues to recover, although her nose leather is not pink, yet. This morning she is eating much better, and is getting around more. Her coat is still ruffled, instead of being all prim and well kept. I stopped by the vets yesterday afernoon, and told them of her slow recovery. The vet said that she didn't believe that she would last over the weekend, "but what ever you are doing, is good for her. Keep doing it." And to be honest with all of you I thought I would loose her over Saturnday night, she was so weak and looked like Pepper. But after prayer she began to snap out of it. Thanks all for your efforts at causing her to heal -slow as it is. She is so tiny.

Wayne, I have been reading your posts since your move to Kansas. I have felt for you and all of the animals, moving is a difficult transition and combined with the other problems it has been a hard time.

I am so happy

that Kitten is doing better. Obviously the love and attention you are providing for her has helped give her a will to live.

so sorry to hear about Kitten, she is in my prayers! Hang in there Wayne

This noon time I wiped her down with a sponge and warm water. she looked so frazzled and dirty and then I laid her down on the couch top in the morning sunlight. All Kitten does is sleep all day and night, but she is gaining weight, and is up and about a little more each day. The vet said that "we are not out of the woods yet". So, all I can do is to feed her, whether she wants to eat or not. But she is eating more with each passing day, on her own volition.

Kitten continues to recover. Last night she slept with me for the first time since getting sick. Now, she goes with the others to feed, just as she used to do. But she is still weak and sickly looking. Perhaps this bout with whatever she has will pass also.

What a relief to hear that she is feeling better. I'm thrilled for all of you.

**krazyaboutkatz** · 10-03-2002, 10:37 PM

I'm so glad to hear that Kitten is eating with the others. I sure hope that she has a full recovery.

All fingers and paws are still crossed here. Good luck.

Kitten continues to gain and be herself again, although she is still weak. The main thing that bothers me is that her nose leather is not pink but is still white -anemic. But I am not complaining. As soon as her nose leather becomes pink again, then I will know that she is definitely on the mend.

**Cataholic** · 10-04-2002, 08:31 AM

Yeah! Kitty! Keep up the good work Wayne...you are doing it!!! Can you give her any supplements, either food or mediation to bring about a change in the anemic condition??? I am pulling for you two (you ten), and the herd at home is crossing all available limbs and tails for your house of cats!

Wayne's message...

"I am sorry to report that Kitten just now passed into the RB. She was gaining strength, until this afternoon. But she still remained weak. and thin. Early this evening she started to meow out, and move only her front paws into the air. I picked her up and walked around the house for about 20 minutes and she passed away. In a way I suppose it is good, in that now she will not be weak and sickley anymore.

Kitten, we hardly got to know you.
why did you have to leave us so soon?
You were so cute to look at.
but now you have crossed the Rainbow bridge
Sleep on my little one.
maybe someday we will meet again.

.........wayne"
