Tests came back and Moo is in last stages of kidney failure. I took her in today for a shot of fluids and an anti-nausea drug (cerenia), but she's very weak. The doc said I could take her to the emergency clinic and they could keep her for a few days and pump her with fluids and meds and maybe there'd be a miracle, but she's more likely to be

I'm so, so sorry to hear this. Wishes for appetite and comfortable rest for her and calmness for you heading your way. *many hugs and pets*

Thank you. I think she is mostly comfortable, but the appetite for food is lacking still, though she crawls determinedly to her water glasses and dishes and the litter box when I can't get there to carry her first. *hugs*

Oh sweetheart, my heart aches with you. It's too fast, and so hard for a mommy to process. You've done absolutely everything to keep Moo comfortable, peaceful, and right next to you where she belongs. I'm with you today in every way I can be, and I hope you can feel my arms holding you gently. So much love to you both, and also to sweet Tuxie.

*hugs you back* Tuxie is grateful to be mentioned. He's been very patient watching me bring her dozens of foods she won't eat that he would gladly take off my hands, but I keep him to his special diet. I owe him lots of special attention. Moo's head is in my lap and she is sleeping soundly.

We went through this back in the summer with Jenna, so I know exactly how you are feeling *gentle hugs to all of you*

I'm sorry I wasn't there for you. It was an especially insane summer in a very crazy year that must have distracted me form reading. *hugs back gratefully*

I'm so sorry for you and Moo. I pray that she may be comfortable and peaceful in these last moments. It isn't an irony that tomorrow is Thanksgiving, when you reminisce on all the wonderful times you've had together. Go well, Moo. you are loved!

It was the most insane T-Day ever for me with some bad trials and much to be grateful for. Today is the day I've already gotten all the things we need and all that will help set up and I could just be with her all day finally. Her head is in my lap and she is sleeping. We see the vet and will see what they think. Thank you, my dear.

may there be peace for both of you, and quiet moments where there's just *memory* in the air.

Hugs, I'm so sorry. It is heartbreaking.

[lavendertook]

It really is. Thank you. *hugs back*
