Prayers for you and your furbaby Kacey.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

There are way too many sick cats on PT lately. It's just so sad.

Prayers and warm thoughts on the way.

Kacey isn't doing well this morning. The wheezing is gone, but he's very weak. We're going to the vet in a little while. I hope that there's still something that can be done for him, but of course I won't let him linger on in pain if there's nothing that will help.

I just hope that the universe has a miracle to spare for my Kacey. He deserves a miracle.

Miracles happen every day and there's every reason to believe that your Kacey is in line for one. We'll say our prayer right now that Kacey will improve and can spend much more quality time w/you. Keep the faythe.

Kacey, I sure hope you are feeling better. You are worrying us.

Well, my poor little guy is spending the night at the vet's, where they'll try to stabilize him after a long, frustrating day.

My vet referred me to a clinic about an hour away, where they allegedly could do an ultrasound. After I got there, I was told that they couldn't do cardiac or thorasic ultrasounds. So they did x-rays, which (of course) were inconclusive.

The referral vet didn't think Kacey's heart is the problem, though. The possibilities included pneumonia, a twisted lobe in his lung, and a diaphragmatic hernia. They then told me I could get an ultrasound done at a clinic in St. Louis, about an hour and a half away from where I live (and two and a half hours from the clinic I took him to today).

Well, I knew that Kacey couldn't handle another night without some support, and if whatever's wrong requires surgery he's too weak right now to make it through. So it was back to my regular vet for the night.

I'm hoping the vet can make him more comfortable and give us some time to find out what we're dealing with. I can't believe I'm having so much trouble finding someone who can do an ultrasound!

Please keep my sweetie in your thoughts tonight. It's going to be a long night without him, and the road ahead doesn't look too bright right now.
