Anika's Last Update, Anika will be PTS Today. #114 Posted on Cat Memorial Section

Melissa - has Anika been using the box?

If you look in Cat Health, Sabrina was puking foam...in her case, she was constipated.

Not saying it is the same with Anika, but if she hasn't been drinking enough - even though you are giving her liquids - maybe she is 'bound up' a bit?

Call your vet before you try any Lactulose or anything though. (Even a sprinkle of human Metamucil works).

Thank you Catty1, I was about to mention that when I saw her post but you got it for me.

Wanted to you let you know that you and sweet Anika are still in my thoughts.

Any news from her today?

This morning I called the vets and the vet wasn't in yet so I had to leave a message and they called me back about 9:30 and wanted her to spend the day there so Ellen (my vet) could observe her and she was or possibly might try something new but I haven't heard anything yet from them, I figured I'd give her another hour before calling but I'm due back to pick her up after work and the ultrasound is still scheduled for Wed. at 11:30 a.m.

So we'll see. My poor girl was crying all the way to the vets and hopefully I'll hear something soon.

You can rest assured that they will take good care of her while she's with them. Most vet staff cuddle, talk to and pet the animals staying there on a frequent basis (one of the job perks actually lol).

I hope they find out what's going on with her and can give her some meds or something to make her feel better very soon. I know what it's like to be a worried pet mommy. My thoughts are with you both.

[Anikaca77]

Anika is going to be put down at 3 pm today.

There is no hope. She is jondus now and the vet said that most chances are she has cancer or chronic paracteristis and then it will be a long term.

I can't think right now. I'm just so upset.

If anyone would like their donations back since I didn't go through the ultrasound please let me know. I'd be happy to send it back.

OMG! LES here. I am soo soo very sorry about this. I don't even know what to say.

[Catty1]

Melissa...{{{{hugs}}}}

Will you be able to go say goodbye to her?

I didn't donate much - but I say keep what I sent, as I know you have heavy vet back bills, and you and hubby are doing your best to make a go of it.

I am so, so sorry....

You and your hubby have done everything you could, never feel guilty for a moment...if only total love was enough, and sadly, it sometimes isn't.

[Kirsten]

Melissa, my heart breaks for you!

It may sound trivial, but I know what you are going through, what it means to have to say good bye to a beloved furry friend, a feline soul mate. Been there before.

Please know that I'm with you in my thoughts. Your love for Anika will give you the strength to go through this. May she have a peaceful passing.

(((HUGS)))

Melissa, I wish I could take this all away from Anika and you. You've been through so much together. Words are inadequate at a time such as this but please know that if I can be of some comfort to you, I'll be there either through PM or a phone call in a hearbeat. My heartfelt prayers are going up for you and your husband and our girl Anika. My Puddy will be on the watch for her and will be a fierce protectress.

I read most of this thread and I am so, so sorry to read this terrible news.
Know in your heart that you did everything possible that anyone could have to help your precious Anika. My heart goes out to you.

We will all be there with you and Anika during this painful time.

Go peacefully dear Anika and let your meowmie know that despite everything that she has done for you, that you just could not fight anymore. You are ready to go on to the RB, where you will wait for her, one fine day.

[phesina]

Oh, Melissa, I am so very sorry.

Rest in peace, sweet Anika. Your meowmie loves you very, very much.

Pat,with LES

I just happened to come to Cat Talk and I saw the update. Melissa, your heart is very heavy right now. It is never easy to say goodbye to a good friend like Anika. Many of us have gone thru exactly what you are going thru now, and we are here for you. Prayers and hugs for you. Sleep softly, sweet Anika...Sandra
