Need good wishes for Tama

[neko1]

Hi all,
Sorry it's been so long since I've posted- I'm a lurker everyday!

I am taking Tama to the vet today because something's not right with him-he's not picking up his head- when he walks(which he isn't doing much of), he has his head down.

I was looking online and the only thing I could find is that it could be low potassium due to renal failure I can only hope it's something less serious

As of yesterday, he was still using the litterbox. He still is interested in food & water although he just won't eat or drink this morning.

I just a few good thoughts for him

Definitely prayers are going up for Tama. Keep the faythe.

Prayers and good wishes for Tama.

I keep my fingers crossed for Tama.
And if it should be renal failure, don't despair- it may be kept at bay for years to come.
Filou was the best witness to that.
You may not have heard that another blue Aby entered Pet Talk: my boy Orion who will be 1 year old end November. He waves Hi to Tama and says that we Abys keep it going

Head-hanging can also be from hyperthyroidism. There's a lady in my group whose cat does that.

Good luck, Tama! I am sure the whitecoats will find something treatable for you, handsome boy!

That is so sad and scary when one of Our Cat Companions shows signs of being ill.
We do not know whether it is a minor or major issue
We are praying that Tama is not ill, and that your White Coats can clear it up quickly

neko1, how is Tama? Fingers and paws crossed, and prayers said.

Thank you for asking- he is feeling much better! He's going back for a recheck on his bloodwork in a few weeks and I'm sure his potassium levels have gone back up. Hopefully this hasn't destroyed his kidneys...
