Whitey seems to be doing OK although she is a very picky eater and when cats are not feeling up to snuff, it can be harder to see what they will eat. We had another cat back in 2002, Muffin, our Burmese cat, live 2.5 years with CRF. We had trouble finding out what she liked so the vet said to try baby food to get her to eat and put calories into her and we are doing the same with Whitey. Whitey ate quite a bit of the food. After we give her the IV, she sleeps a lot since she doesn’t like it and it tends to disrupt the routine as the vet said so we let her sleep and rest. The next day, she is up and eats a lot more. She still walks a little slow, but she’s been through a lot. She only thew up a couple of times but they were hairballs. I’m cautiously optimistic here although we have to take it day by day.

I have to announce the passing of my cat, Whitey. Her CRF must have been worse than we thought. B-(( we thought we had it but.... what can I say, it is hard to see the screen as I type this. We lost her 30 minutes ago. She is survived by her mother Spunky and adopted brother Rascal. She is with her two brothers now. I find it quite amazing and disturbing that we can send probes into interstellar space but can't do more for our little ones. I'm bummed......
Romney's gotta win, for Whitey. Whitey was a true patriot, she swatted Obama on the TV screen as she hissed at him. As I push the button for Romney, I'll say, "for Whitey...."
Slings, I pinged you so you can ping the list, I want to thank all of yuns for your support.
