[III] -My Shading Star..

[sandragonfly]

..it has been too long now.

after my star made a breaking news, she hasn't purred or wanted to be by my hands at all for two days...should it be that way? tubster? pudster? filou? ..



the update is about the same for her, just needs 50-100cc subquefluids every other day. doctor coast decided to keep that for about a week more or so, depends on how bright star she will be. I don't like hearig that.. "depends"..a bit. please, please come back, star!! I need you so much.

I've got a help last night too, I maybe can try raw (chicken) diet for her, only in small chunks. she wouldn't want to eat much of her A/D hills or nutrical kibbles yesterday/today..



I don't know what else new to say now.. please take this little poor star along with you around in your thoughts for me and us.. thank you!!

SADLY,WHEN A CAT.IS IN PAIN,THEY TRY,TO BE BY THEMSELVES,AND HIDE FROM THE PAIN,AS THOUGH,IT WAS A PYSICAL ENEMY.POUNCER DID,THAT BEFORE SHE PASSE ON,SHE KEPT AWAY,FROM ME,AND STAYED UNDER THE BED.
WE ARE PRAYING,FOR STAR,THAT SHE WILL RECOVER,AND THAT YOU,WILL HAVE MORE TIME TOGETHER.

I truly believe that if anything is going to help Star, it will be a biologically correct diet of raw meat........we see this happen too often........kidney failure, due to commercial pet foods. Keep in mind that it can take some transitioning over for a cat (especially if it not feeling well) to accept raw meat. Don't give up, and keep in mind also that your vet may warn you against raw feeding. The commercial pet food companies educate the vets about nutrition, and they have done a pretty good job of scaring them away from raw.

Have a good day, and all the best,
Gayle

Whenever Puddy was sick, she would hide under the bed and nothing and no one could make her come out until she was darned good and ready. And if you dared to reach under the bed to try to pet her, you'd probably draw back a stub. As she grew older, though, she seemed to want to be w/me when she was sick, although w/this last bout of renal failure problems, she just laid there like a stuffed kitty. That really scared me. Puddy isn't one to be bothered much anyhow, so she can't be used as a barometer, Gina. But I do know that not a few cats prefer to be alone when sick, esp. when it's their time to cross over.

Blessings,
Mary

Do you think you might learn to administer these fluids yourself? It would be the best way. Filou sends purrings and says he's not ready to give up.

[Medusa]

Yes, Gina, I'm sure you can administer the SQ fluids yourself. I was nervous at first and still am a little bit, given that it's the Pudster, but it's over so quick and then I can breathe a sigh of relief. And everyone is commenting on how good Puddy looks, that she even looks younger. (Why can't they say that about me?) Talk to your vet and see what he says, why doncha?

Blessings,
M

I agree completely...raw food cured my Micah when nothing else would (foods and medications).

Its WELL worth a try.

This is what I get for Micah:

It comes with intructions on what to add (water, raw chicken liver and raw meat). Micah LOVES it and he was well in just a week!

Good luck Gina. I'll be praying for your Star.

Gina, I'm sending lots of prayers and positive thoughts to Star and I hope she'll start feeling better very soon. Hopefully the raw diet will help her. I've been feeding my kittens Innova Evo and it says that this is very similar to the raw diet but in a dry food. I don't know if this is true or not but here's a link to it: Innova Evo. I buy mine at An-Jan's Feed & Supply Store. I sure hope that something will work for Star.
