OT - My Willow-kitty
Well, if you read my three things today you'll have seen that my Willow is not well. She is underweight - she usually weighs 8 lbs but is down to 6.5 lbs. She's dehydrated although both my husband and I saw her drinking yesterday and she drank quite a bit this morning. When the vet listened to her lungs, things didn't sound good, she wasn't getting much air flow - off for x-rays. She's got a ton of fluid in her chest which is compressing her lungs and heart. It's possible that she has some sort of infection but it could also be a result of feline Leukemia or Feline HIV. She was tested for both when she was younger and was negative for both. So, I had to leave her at the Animal Hospital. They are going to drain the fluid, put her on anti-biotics and fluids via IV and see how she does. The vet cautions that only about 25% of cases get better after all of this but we'll hope for the best!!
Good thoughts, prayers, or whatever you'd like would be most appreciated!
Thanks,
Heather
