Poor little girl. I'm so sorry both of you are going thru this. Love her lots and lots and lots.

Thanks.Marky Dread wrote: ↑31 May 2018, 5:34pmSorry to hear of this Mimi. Sympathies.Mimi wrote: ↑31 May 2018, 4:28pmThanks, guys. I appreciate the kind thoughts. This one is hitting me like a truck, reminding too much of when my dog died. She's always been my baby and to see her go through this and me feeling helpless because her kidneys are stupid is hard. Not lying when I say she was herself in the morning and a completely different cat when I came home from work. It was like someone had shut off a light. No signs or symptoms just BAM, which is scary about kidney disease.
If I could give only one piece of advice to cat owners: get 'em off the dry food.
Re: Pets.
Well, I spoke with the vet after her latest blood work. Her kidney values have gone down significantly. She still wants me to do subQs for the next two weeks to see if it will push the numbers down even more. Maybe, and I'm hoping, this was something acute and it will straighten out with aggressive treatment. Still not out of the woods yet, but I can maybe catch my breath now.

Re: Pets.
Fingers crossed. And such improvements can happen. Dickens had diabetes requiring insulin injections for around five years and then suddenly he started producing sufficient insulin on his own. Probably related to his diabetes, one winter his back legs lost strength—not quite paralyzed, but weak—and then in several months he was fine again. He amazed the hell out of his vet.

Hang in there kitty.
Re: Pets.
That's great news. I will keep my fingers crossed that it continues to go in this direction.

Re: Pets.
Please welcome Teddy (that's Tedddlleeee) Bernstein. He's very cute. I have already been able to lure him onto my hand and lift him a little. I am going to give him a couple of more days to let him get acclimated, and then we will try and take him out so VH, Jr. can play with him.

Buddy would love to meet him but would be unfortunately inclined to eat him as well.
