Moff, I'm so sorry to hear this - I'm sending lots of positive thoughts to Luke and to you. I hope the sub q fluids and the diet will help him feel better in a few days. You will soon get used to giving it to him, but I do understand if you're worried about it.

Give Luke some scritchies and kisses from me - Fister sends headbumpies.

Hoping to read soon that Luke is doing better and that you got some rest knowing that he was in good hands.

I also have a cat in CRF, just diagnosed three months ago, my Ash the grey kitty in my siggy is around 13 but could be nearer 15, he was a stray, so the vets are only guessing,the time he was diagnosed was during his dental,his levels also were not that high either.

I also found getting him to eat was terrible, infact he would have slowly starved to death, my vet has prescribed Anaplex, which is a steroid,you may well ask your vets opinion about this, since then he is indeed eating much better, still has on and off days, but has gained a 100grms, so that is excellent, of course they are not without side effects, but in an older cat i think the benefits out weigh the side effects ,especially when you are dealing with CRF,my Ash also has a heart murmur, he is on Fortekor as well, which lowers the blood pressure and helps the kidneys, like i said he has ups and downs, and medicating him is no fun, but it is worth it,he is doing ok so far, and i really think it is what is keeping him alive and comfortable, he can still run up the trees and he is looking well considering, although he has lost a lot of weight, that is to be expected, the other benefit for Ash is he has arthritis and it helps with the pain of that too, anyhow something worth considering maybe.

My sweet Luke is now at the Rainbow Bridge with his pal Leroy.

Turned out he had congestive heart failure and both lungs were filled with fluid. When they tryed to start an iv he went into respitory distress. The vet said they could still try the iv but it would most likely kill him.

I decided to let him go to the bridge in peace.

We both thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. I'm sure they kept him going way longer than if there weren't any.

Oh no, I'm so sorry! I wish this could have had a better outcome. Of course, you know that Luke isn't suffering, is at peace and loves you and thanks you for helping him to the Bridge. Please know that my heart hurts for you and wish I could help in some way other than w/words. RIP, sweet Luke and peace to you, Connie.
