Kacey was coughing quite a bit yesterday, so I scheduled a vet visit for this afternoon. I ended up rushing him in a couple hours before his appointment because his breathing became wheezy.
Well, the vet believes that my sweet boy has dilated cardiomyopathy. He gave him a couple of injections (Depo-Medrol and Lasix) and sent him home--said we'd work on a treatment regimen later, assuming those drugs help him feel better tonight.
Could you all please spare some good wishes for Kacey kitty? I know that the prognosis for a 15-year-old cat with cardiomyopathy isn't too good. But I'm hoping that he can stay with me for awhile yet. I'm just all torn up right now--I love that cat so very much.
