Prayers for my Tabitha Please.... Update #17

[Donnaj4962]

My sweet 19 year old heart cat is not feeling well tonight. When I came home from work, she didn't come to greet me as she usually does. She finally meandered downstairs, and I saw that her right cheek, just below her eye is swollen. Her eye is not open as wide as usual. She lost her big tooth on that side about a year ago, and I am wondering if it is infected. Poor widdle girl. She ate some shredded cheese tonight, and got a big long drink from the bathroom faucet.

Of course, I got home too late for the vet, so I will take her in the morning. They open at 8 and I will be there waiting with my baby.

I can't really afford the emergency vet, so I will have to wait until the morning. I wish I could take her tonight. I am so worried about her.

Any prayers you can spare would be truly appreciated. Thanks.

Prayers for Tabitha! She must be in some pain...would a warm wrung-out cloth held gently against her cheek help her feel better, I wonder?

Gentle hugs to that sweetheart!

Hugs and purrs,

Poor Tabitha... hope it's nothing serious and she'll feel better soon!

It does sound like some sort of abscess. I think the warm washcloth sounds like a good thing to try as well! Good luck in the morning with your sweet girl!!!

[Donnaj4962]

Thank you for all of your prayers and well wishes. Tabitha has been sitting in the window some tonight, but no cuddles with Meowmie. I will try the warm washcloth tonight as we lay down to go to sleep. She is at the bathroom sink now getting a drink, and she ate some earlier.

I will let you know about the vet visit once we are home in the morning. Thank you all again! I know the power of PT prayers!

Good luck!! Will watch for the update.

Awww - poor Tabitha. It is so hard when our furry friends are sick, especially when they are older. At least she is still eating and drinking some, that's a hopeful sign. I'm sure it will be a long night for both of you (((hugs))). Good luck in the morning!
