    A BraveHeart update. 4-15-08

    Mixed news.

    His red blood cell count and hematicrit are back into the normal range, so that means the medicine for anemia has done its thing.

    But his kidney values continue to get worse.

    So, as long as he is eating and happy, we continue his sub-Q treatments and a few suportive medications, and hope he stays with us a while.

    Seems like his tale has been 2 steps forward, one step back.

    Just have to hang on to the positive side and keep on providing him with the love and TLC which you show to all the pets in your care, Jenn! Thanks for hanging in there with him!!

    Well, at least now that he is out and about socializing with the other cats, he has a quality of life rather than living in a room by himself. Kidney disease isn't a curable thing. We do what we can, making them comfy and happy, for as long as we're able. Right now that's what you are doing for him, and from what you tell us, he seems to be enjoying himself. What more could we ask for? Go Braveheart!

    Poor Brave Heart.
    We at the Found Cat Hotel know that hes in the best place that he can be, and will truly get the best care in the world.
    We are praying as hard as we can from Brave Heart, and hope that he can somehow beat this disease.
