#cat sickness

[mrslittletall]

My cat, Geraldina, is really sick. She got diagnosed with acute kidney failure. We don't know what caused it.

She is getting infusion treatment but it is a gamble.

Please think of her.

Looking for a Tumblr miracle where someone recognizes having gone through the same\similar thing and somehow has advice on how to help.

[ Just in case anyone was wondering,

Our little feral void girl Sage who I posted about a few days ago saying she was on her way out ... we decided to at least try and help her, because we could tell she wasn't ready to go despite all signs, and it was a GOOD call! Little girl has been at the cat hospital for a day and a half now getting fluids and vitamins etc. and she's already improving! She's hissing at them and moving around and eating on her own a little! Unfortunately she has been diagnosed with FIV(Cat HIV) which is manageable, and she may or may not have feluek. It looked like it could be a false positive on the feluek though, so we're having her retested, as if she's negative for it then we'll be making her an indoor cat with our girl Miso. ]

So, cat update. Because if I don’t get it out idk what to do with myself.

We ended up taking Patches to an emergency vet on Friday because I needed a second opinion before we did anything. And thank god we did, because he said that he saw nothing that our usual vet mentioned. He scoped her twice and took x-rays.

However. She’s still having the same issues she was before she went. However, she is on strong antibiotics so we’ll have to give those a few days to keep working.

But please, please keep sending her good vibes and keeping her in your prayers. My family as well. This has taken its toll both emotionally, physically, and financially, but we will do everything possible to help her.

If any of you have any ideas of what could be wrong or ways to get a cat that only eats dry food to eat, please share.

So I need some help with Iris. 

If you don’t know about her, she’s a 6 yo rescue Exotic Shorthair that was taken out of a terrible breeding place, hence her bad kidneys. Over new year she had a acute crisis and was hospitalized for 6 days. All of the money I made this last year has been absorbed into the hospitalization bill, but now there’s going to be EPO injections to fight the anemia, antibiotics and painkillers for her tooth (that we can’t fix until her numbers are more stable), and blood tests. Any help is appreciated.

And if you contribute and want to grab a book? Please let me know!

He’s... not feeling well.  Over the last few days, he's sneezed several times (the first time we’ve ever seen him sneeze) and last night he almost made it to the litter box -- the first time that has ever happened.  He’s been sleeping with us most of today and seems better, but if he isn’t better by tomorrow morning, he’s going back to the vet.  Whatever is wrong, the other cat hasn’t caught it...  It’s amazing how scared I get when anything seems to go wrong with him.

I hate how me having any negative emotions seems to make Kessel get sicker again... And it's rough cause I think about my dad a lot...

Even small things like seeing or eating deli mix pizza, poutine, really good onion rings with salt and vinegar, and fajitas, or seeing really lovingly crafted aquariums, or when there's an issue with some construction or mechanical thing I don't know how to fix yet... I just... I can't help but miss him... Sometimes I get a wiff of fucking cigarette smoke and I think of him.

And I cry. And then Kessel gets sick and that stresses me out more which stresses him out more... I love knowing my cat is SO ATTACHED to me... But I hate knowing my unstable emotional state could cause him immense and immeasurable harm... And I have very poor emotional regulation...
