Prayers please for Tabitha

[Donnaj4962]

I know I am new here, but please, I need the PT prayers that I have seen do wonders on here! My 17 year old, Tabitha, isn't doing too well. Last night when I got home, she didn't come downstairs to meet me. When I went to find her, she was just laying on the bed. She looked up at me with those beautiful green kitty cat eyes, and I knew she wasn't feeling well. I carried her downstairs to eat dinner, but she just sniffed it and went back upstairs. The evening was spent on the bed, cuddling with her. I did get her to eat a piece of ham later in the eveing, which she gobbled down! That made me happier, knowing that she ate something. But this morning, she had "lost" it on the laundry room floor. She came down this morning for breakfast, but again only sniffed and walked away. When I left for work, she was laying under the bed. I am going to leave work early today and take her to the vets. She had a mini stroke a few years ago, and she acted a lot like this. But she came right out of it within a few days. She can walk, and she purrs, she just "isn't herself". Please, pray for my girl.... she is such a lovebug! Thanks.

Prayers for you and Tabitha. I hope she feels better soon. When our 17-year old (Kuhio) wasn't feeling well and couldn't keep things down, I minced up ham or lunchmeat and cheese as finely as I could. She would scarf it down and maybe because it was so tiny, it stayed down. I also recommend jars of meat baby food. Kuhio could keep baby food down when her tummy wasn't feeling well. Please keep us posted.

I am sorry to hear about Tabitha. I hope that it is only temporary and that she'll have some good times to come. Tigris walks over the keyboard and purrs his best wishes too.-

We are back from the vets. Thank you for all of your good wishes! Tabitha was such a brave girl! I am so proud of her. She let the dr. feel her tummy, take her temp. and listen to her heart. Then she let him take some blood. He said everything sounds and looks fine, except that her thyroid maybe a little enlarged. The bloodwork will tell the tale. I feel so much better, and my baby is home with me! She even ate some food when we got home.

Thanks for the idea of the baby food. I will buy some at the store today and see if that helps. She has always been very petite, but she is down to 7 1/2 lbs. Dr. wasn't overly concerned about that.

The blood work results will be in Saturday or Monday. I will keep everyone posted! Thank you again for the wonderful wishes! I truly believe that, despite the miles between all on here, we care so much for one another, our babies, and the feelings that we experience.... good and bad. Thanks again.

Oh Donna, I'm so sorry to hear about your brave little girl.
I know how concerned you are because I have an 18 year old and I watch her every move when I'm home.....continuous monitoring of the input and output.

Tabitha, I sure hope you get better real soon and that you don't have to make another trip to those scary whitecoats.

Prayers for Tabitha!

Just a thought on the baby food....it is usually not good for cats with thyroid problems....something about the high protein content. At least, that is what my vet told me about my RB Tex.

Good luck, and keep us posted.

[NoahsMommy]

Awww, I'm glad the vet trip went well today.

I'll keep Tabitha in my prayers for good blood work results.
