Kind Thoughts Please!

[gershwhen]

I'm taking my 13 year old furry baby in for some tests this afternoon.  Jackson, orange kitty extraordinaire, is the most gregarious cat ever.  And for the past week he's been living in my closet and avoiding most contact.  Blood tests have so far come back normal, so we're running an ultrasound to see if they can find anything.

It is SO hard to see

TONS of good thoughts are winging your way! I hope you can find out what's wrong with your precious kitty, and that it's a simple solution.

*many hugs and pets*

::hugs you back!!::

Although we had a long day, this looks to be an infection that can be treated with antibiotics and steroids. A few tests are pending, but I'm very hopeful! Thanks for all of your good wishes.

Good vibes.

It's so hard when a creature that can't talk is sick.

Thanks so much!! From the tests, this looks like it might be treatable with antibiotics, so we're keeping up our hopes. (And I see you posted fic today, so that ALWAYS brightens things up!)

I'm so glad things sound hopeful. Though now you have the fun of medicating a cat. My guy has a heart condition and is on meds for the rest of his life, and it adds occasional drama to my existence.

Just a drabble -- I am rendered unambitious by hot n humid.

I know what you're going through, Gersh. Just recently finished a round of radiation on my 13 year old furry creature, Chloe, for hyperthyroidism. She's doing fine now and I know your boy will end up being just fine, too.

Sending good thoughts your way!

[gershwhen]

Ah, Chloe is darling!! I'm glad she is doing so much better. The tests came back better than expected, so we're just looking at antibiotics and steroids at this point. We have one more test that will take several days for results, and then I can truly rest easy.

::hugs back to you!!::

The tests came back better than expected

Excellent! Sounds like it's not anything super serious, so Jackson should be his old self in no time. :-)

Mine are with you and Jackson.

Thanks!! I'm sure your good thoughts will help, he seems to be doing better this evening.
