Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2006UPDATE DAY 3 FOR SPIRIT
He is little better just got back from my regular vet He still has a fever but my vet can't determine the cause and he checked everything. I think Spirit is going to be a stubborn patient just like Daddy BUT NO MORE INSULIN his sugar was down from 309 to 123 fancy feast diet works. He is responding to the antibiotics but still is not himself. He was a little tender in the groin but not enough to impress the vet with a possible pancreas or kidneys problems. I think it was Spirit does not like his belly touch he bites me gives me a good rake of the claws that will draw blood and several get the heck off me bats of the paw to me. But he is the vet I trust him completely It might be a very light UTI but I go back Friday to make sure I want my spirit back to normal Forgot to add the gave him fluids and he was at the beginning of starting dehydration. He wants a treat but the vet said wet food only till we find out everything > He is little better just got back from my regular vet > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > I want my spirit back to normal Sounds like not a very serious ailment. Whole clowder here sends purrs for his full & fast recovery. Keep us posted. > Forgot to add the gave him fluids and he was at the beginning of starting > dehydration.

MLB Thanks First thing I checked and the vet. This vet is my regular vet a extremely close family friend. He makes a mistake I remind him. I make a mistake he reminds me who is the vet ;-) He is actually feeling a little better today I woke up to him meowing at me where is his food dish. Sorry Buddy no more dry food till the vets says ok on Friday > He is actually feeling a little better today I woke up to him > meowing at me where is his food dish. Sorry Buddy no more dry > food till the vets says ok on Friday Good news, Matthew. I'd suspect more that his BG was up do to stress since it came down so quickly. Lets hope so anyway!

Sorry Buddy no more dry food till the vets > says ok on Friday yay!! I'm glad he's feeling better; keep us posted and purrs he continues to normalize > He is little better just got back from my regular vet > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > I want my spirit back to normal I'd say this sounds good, Matthew. In any case, continuous purrs for Spirit. kili At least some bad things have been ruled out. I'm glad he doesn't need the insulin any more. I hope the doctor can find the cause of the fever or else cure it without finding it. Joy > He is little better just got back from my regular vet > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > I want my spirit back to normal > I want my spirit back to normal So do we, Matthew. Sounds like the report was at least fair if not good. Purrs continue for Spirit. SignatureSam, closely supervised by Mistletoe >He is little better just got back from my regular vet > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > >I want my spirit back to normal That is good his BG is down. Fancy Feast is very low carb as long as you stay away from the sliced meat with gravy foods. I hope he loses the fever soon and gets back to his old self.

The ones that are extremely high for Fancy Feast are the ones that are grilled, roasted, minced Rumble is diabetic his sugar is still in the normal range jsut a little high but he won't eat the diabetic wet food or anything without gravy. Fancy feast has the best choices in gravy -- > CATherine > >>He is little better just got back from my regular vet > >> [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > high but he won't eat the diabetic wet food or anything without gravy. > Fancy feast has the best choices in gravy We do the Gourmet Chicken Feast, Tender Beef and TUrkey and giblet feast. I often think of Miranda and how perfect her diet really is. Pearl will eat most things, but Sugar is picky picky and I can actually get her to eat mostly wet food with these. Pearl, of course, gets NO dry. I didn't have to give her a shot last night and this a.m. she was only 243. Maybe eventually she WILL come off the insulin. >> >>He is little better just got back from my regular vet >> >> [quoted text clipped - 46 lines] > eventually > she WILL come off the insulin. She is in my purrs and prayers >Actually Catherine the gravy sliced foods are not that much higher very >slightly that is the only food that Rumble will eat.

When I did feed some of the sliced with gravy, the silly cat would lick the gravy and leave the meat chunks! -- CATherine >>Actually Catherine the gravy sliced foods are not that much higher very >>slightly that is the only food that Rumble will eat.

Silly Cat > He is little better just got back from my regular vet > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > I want my spirit back to normal I'm so very glad to hear Spirit's health is improving. Continued purrs and best wishes for Spirit and hugs for you for taking such good care of him, Polonca and Soncek >> He is little better just got back from my regular vet >> [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > such good care of him, > Polonca and Soncek My babies are my life there is nothing I won't not do to make them happy. |
