We Are Praying That Digit Is Not Diabetic , And Then He Would Need Constant Needle And Special Food Which Is Not Inexpensive.
We Are Praying That Digit Will Be All Right.

I hope he's not as well. But I know my brother will do what he can for Digit.

Glad to hear the kitty has a vet appointment. Keep us posted as to what the vet says ok?

Well my brother had Digit at the vets on Saturday morning and the vet decided she needed to keep him over the weekend and get him better.

Digit has yellow jodnas (sp?) it's a problem with his liver.

The vet called my sister yesterday (got confused about which # I think to call) and told my sister that he was seeming a little better and that he's now more hydrated so we'll see.

I'm not sure if she is going to running more test but my sister being a PA said that the one level in his liver was very high and usually in people if that number is high means they should start looking for cancer that has spread to the liver.

So I saw Digit this morning (since I took Anika into get her teeth done) and he just seemed very lethargic so I'm hoping he pulls though but he just didn't look good.

Hugs and prayers for Digit. The condition is jaundice, which means bile is getting into the system. His gums will show signs of being pale or discoloured.

It can be a sign of a few things...hopefully another night of hydration and care will help him pull through.

I pray that it is not cancer.

Oh boy, I hope that all turns out well for Digit. Prayers continuing.....

Sorry to hear about the liver problems. I hope they are able to get it treated and a full recovery from this.
