Prayers that the vet will find what is ailing Chance and get him all better soon!!!

I don't know how much it'll cost Lori. The vet didn't think it was crucial to do them right away though. If Chance doesn't get better within the next day or so, I will definately find a way to get him EVERY test he needs even if it means selling the clothes off my back and walking around naked!

Even though I've been discouraged that he isn't 100% better, he is still much better from yesterday so that is a good thing. He's still sleeping a lot, but he will wake up now and he's being a little perkier. When I last checked on him, he started mewing at me and stood up to rub on me He's back to resting now though. Hopefully tomorrow will be even better. And I am SO glad I got the pills and a pill gun this time instead of the liquid. With the liquid, I practically had to sit on him to get it down his throat!!! He doesn't even fight with the pill gun though. I squirted a little water into his mouth after I gave him the pill to be sure he swallowed it and he started spitting and gagging and being the biggest drama queen EVER! I think he thought he was getting antibiotics, but then he finally realized it was just water. Hehehe

Chance just came upstairs!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its the first time he's really moved all day! I think this is a great sign

(I am worried because he is hissing at the dogs though. REALLY weird for him since he loves them so much. I think my foster Alexia must have stepped on him while he was laying on the floor earlier today though. He seems really sensitive in his stomach area so maybe she stepped on a sore spot of his).

I'm trying not to worry TOO much though because this is great that he's got up by himself and came up here to see everyone!

That's great Aly!

Yaay Chance!! I'm glad he's moving around more, hope that means he's feeling better! Maybe he's just not in the mood for nosey dogs, he just wants some lovin' from you!

Yeah, I hope so. I think its so unfortunate that he wasn't healthy when he met Alexia because he would really love her. Lucky and Alexia are practically inseperable and Lucky usually doesn't spend that much time cuddling with the dogs like he does to her.

That was the first time I've heard Chance hiss

That's okay, you should hear me when I'm sick.

HEHE! Ok I just realized how I am when I'm sick and I told Chancey its okay and he can hiss all he wants!

(He jumped up on the little half wall in my room and he's sitting up next to Shiloh )

*edit* Now he's back down and eating again Lots of moving!

Oh Aly, I'm so glad he is perking up!!!! Richard and I went to dinner tonight to celebrate our wedding anniversary (it was actually yesterday) and all I could do was talk about Chance. He was so sweet to listen to me go on about him and he was even trying to help me come up with ideas to help. I think he has finally realized how attached I am to this little sweetie I've never even met.

[aly]

Awww, your husband sounds about as sweet as you are!

Thank you so much for all the kind words and good vibes sent this way.

I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and don't know what I would've done without you guys!

I really wish you could meet Chance Lori. I can't even describe how sweet of a cat he is. He was headbumping the vet in the face!! And Chance pulled off his stethascope and started headbumping his chest, hehee!


(HAPPY late ANNIVERSARY)

First thing in the morning: How is Chance?
And I am so happy to hear he's getting better. Even the hissing is not such a bad sign. And I'm very grumpy too when I'm sick

I hope all our thoughts help at last

Just checking in Aly to get the 'uppieddate' on Chance.

The hissing sounds very positive! I know how I feel when I'm poorly - can't stand anyone near me - it's a case of 'Leave me ALONE'!

And the little fella came upstairs! WOW! That must be a good sign - and having a little 'sit' with Shiloh - sounds very positive.
Bet he was exchausted afterwards!

Sending buckets of good vibes and prayers for Chance - and a great BIG {{{HUG}}} for his Meowmie xxxx

Glad to hear he's moving around. That plus eating is definitely a good sign!

Happy to hear that Chance is perking up.

Just thought I'd let you guys know that Chance knocked over a glass of water today, got stuck in the blinds, and played in the dog food. I'll let you guys decide if he's feeling better
