SHE'S COMING HOME and she's home


Her numbers still aren't where they want her, but she's drinking water and eating..so I'm going to go pick her up.Called Dr. Tom's office and he's back and so sorry they weren't here for her. I googled Internet for vitamins etc. for liver ailments in cats..Going to check with him and see if her liver is ok to take them.. A. E. C. and a bunch more. But won't give her anything until Tom says it's ok..Won't even ask the Buttroy as he thinks giving animals human vitamins is 'stupid'..I'm working a deal with the Goddess to strike him down with a severe case of the 'drippy shits'...it's only fair. Will tell more once I get her home...I'm so excited I can't stand it..
Part2...she's home...soon as I got her out of the dickheads, I took her right to Dr. Tom, who insisted on seeing her. He's concerned about her high levels too, but said the main thing now is to get her to eat. The dry LD Feline had an expired date, so only have the canned ...But she was eating and drinking water. Tom looked her over and was surprised the asshole didn't give her anti-biotics..so he gave her some. Said to take her home and to call him tomorrow and let me know how she's doing..she's still eating ok..and her eyes never leave me.. I shut the door so she can't get out, so the neighbors won't be tempted to feed her fried chicken. She's so weak she can barely walk..looks like a drunk sailor. So I fixed her up on her chair and put the food right by her and she can eat without having to move...Dr. wants me to call him tomorrow and see how she's doing. If she continues to eat and show signs of improvement, he said to hold off on doing more blood work as it's so stressful for her. If she starts going down ....well...don't want to even think about that.
But right now all I can do is enjoy having her home. Now maybe I'll be able to sleep.
I want to tell you how much all the good wishes, thoughts prayers and donations have meant to me..It made something that was stressful enough without the added burden of worrying if I'd be able to care for her...Thanks to all of you..my bill will be paid and I have my baby home..You are truly the best people I have ever known in my life. Well, considering most of the people I know are drunks, x-dopers or on parole, that's not saying much ...but you know what I mean. If there is ever anything I can do for any of you, (with the exception of donating an organ or blood..have hepatitis so can't)..let me know..You are all in the will...so expect an old rock and roll record to arrive within a week of my croaking..Or a book...or both...In the immortal words of Billy Pilgrim..."I love you sonsabitches."..

Woot!

You forgot to include no toilet available and white pants wandering around the fairgrounds during Westfest.

A real caring environment and a non buttroy for a doctor should go a long way towards recovery.

Give little Annie big hugs from Sling!

Intense Guy said...

Welcome home Annie. You were missed! Please, continue to get well.

I'm doing a happy dance and my felines are looking at me like "Why's Mom acting so weird?"

Give Annie a pat from me, and take care of yourself, we can't have both of you sice

So glad to hear Annie is home. I hope for continued improvement. Our pets are so precious to us all.

Heidi said...

I'm so happy Annie is home, and I am so happy for you! I hope her health continues to improve. I'll be sending you and Miss Annie something in the mail because I don't like using PayPal. (long story)

Oh shite I always arrive here too late. Oh I am glad things are ok or at least Annie is home with someone who loves her so. It must have been such a worry for you. I have been all tangled up with Dad and my sister and havent been doing much blogging. Whats kolaches mean? If its speed he aint having it he is already out of control he he! Although I think he needs an electric chair because I am thinkng about all the weight I could lose chasing him.

I'm so glad to hear that Annie is doing better. I used to work for a vet. If she's not eating much of the l/d food, ask Tom if you should try some fresh boiled chicken.

Holy crud, I haven't been on the blogs lately and I missed all of this! I'm saying a prayer that Annie continues to do well and gets better.

I'm very happy for you two. I'm missing having a cat. My old cat lived 20+ years. I was very lucky. I'm also very lucky to have a house call vet. I wish you both the very best. No matter what, it's better to be home with the one's you love than in the hospital alone with people who poke and prod you.

Nit Wit said...

What they said!

Big Pissy said...

Yeah! Everybody left such great comments....they said it all for me.

Hugs to you both!

I am so glad she's home and seems to be holding her own. Keeping her in my thoughts and hoping she is her old self soon.

Hugs and Blessings
