Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2006PB is poorly
A trip to TED with him this afternoon wasn't encouraging, his kidneys are very large.......an infection is unlikely as his temperature is normal....he's booked in for blood tests and an x-ray tomorrow. TED thinks it's either cancer or end stage renal failure...d*mn why are cats so good at hiding stuff (rhetorical question, I don't need an answer).

Thanks Dan, I've been sat in the garden with PB on my lap (he's been *very* cuddly today) and I told him lots of kitties are sending get-well purrs......his response was to send purrs back. TED tried to listen to his heart but gave up because all she could hear was a very deep rumble, he was an absolute angel not a wriggle or a squirm even when the thermometer was inserted 'where the sun don't shine'. SignatureShirley http://community.webshots.com/user/shirleycatuk Awww :( I'm so sorry to hear this. Purrs for comfort for both of you > A trip to TED with him this afternoon wasn't encouraging, his kidneys > are very large.......an infection is unlikely as his temperature is [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > are cats so good at hiding stuff (rhetorical question, I don't need an > answer). > Awww :( I'm so sorry to hear this.

He's my best gardening buddy and I oh so don't want to lose him. SignatureShirley http://community.webshots.com/user/shirleycatuk Many, many purrs and prayers.

You don't need an answer, but you and PB need lots of purrs and hugs.

For a feral cat he's such a sweet heart, he would always (untill the last few days) bounce down the garden in the morning as soon as he saw me up and about in the kitchen, wait patiently till I bought out his breakfast and then supervise all my activities in the garden during the day like hanging out the washing or tidying up the flowerbeds.

Lots of purrs for PB. Is it possible he injested any part of a lily?

Is it possible he injested any part of a lily? Thanks Adrian, it's very unlikely with regards to the lily, PB has never been a flower/plant nibbler he reserved his interest in plants/gardening to giving me instructions on how to mow the lawn/clip the edges and where would be the perfect spot to put plants (usually by digging them up if he thought they were in the wrong place).

Joyce > A trip to TED with him this afternoon wasn't encouraging, his kidneys > are very large.......an infection is unlikely as his temperature is [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > are cats so good at hiding stuff (rhetorical question, I don't need an > answer). Lots and lots of purrs and best wishes for PB and hugs for you, Shirley, Polonca and Soncek Purrs, purrs and purrs, coming for PB and his kidneys. Cats are amazingly stoical, aren't they? Sometimes, it would be SO useful if they could articulate their health troubles in the early stages. I hope the case is less dire than it appears right now. Melissa > TED thinks it's either cancer or end stage renal failure...d*mn why are > cats so good at hiding stuff (rhetorical question, I don't need an > answer). They're so good at hiding illness because they don't want us to worry as much as we tend to do. Many purrs that TED is wrong in this case. > A trip to TED with him this afternoon wasn't encouraging, his kidneys > are very large.......an infection is unlikely as his temperature is [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > are cats so good at hiding stuff (rhetorical question, I don't need an > answer). Purrs that it's neither and can be easily treated.

Purrs, purrs, purrs for him. Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com Make Levees, Not War Many purrs for PB, from one who has had to deal with feline kidney difficulties; and for you and your spirits, and for the vet, that he (she) does the best for your little one.

I was embarrassed to find I'd replied to this without noticing the update when you'd had to say goodbye. I'm sorry if I made it worse. Dammit. I know exactly what it's like. I keep telling myself no more animals, I don't want to go through losing them yet again, but what can you do when one comes along desperate except take them in and suffer the consequences? Tweed OMG I can hear noises, I think there's a rat in my conservatory. Cats are asleep.. eek another noise.. Yes, it's a rat, I see it. Boyfie: asleep. KFC: asleep. I run around with a big stick and get the rat out by myself.. >>> I'm very sorry to hear this. Shirley.

No need for embarrasment, and you didn't make it worse PB and I had some time together even if it was only a few hours- hey it's quality that counts not quantity. :-) The other furbies were quite unsettled Thursday and Friday but today Domino bought them to the house one by one for treats (Tuna) and grooming (this was always PB's job). Tuffty and Chocky who just about tolerate each other are layed (or should that be laid?) on the lawn together and Chockys tail is draped over Tufftys neck....the group dynamics have changed again.. > Tweed > OMG I can hear noises, I think there's a rat in my conservatory. > Cats are asleep.. eek another noise.. > Yes, it's a rat, I see it. Boyfie: asleep. KFC: asleep. I run > around with a big stick and get the rat out by myself.. Does that mean cats are like policemen, always asleep when you need one? :-) (note: no offence to law enforcers on either side of the pond, sleeping policemen is the name for traffic calming bumps in the road).
