Sad News...over the weekend my little copper penny red Nacho kitty took a turn for the worse. On Friday he went to the litter box in the morning about 5 times in around 15 minutes...really a strange thing//but other than that..he was doing pretty well considering he hated his new food. Then on Sat he wanted to go outside and he followed me all around the yard as I did some clipping..and he ate tho his eating was a tad off that day. I was thinking his litter box changes were due to the antihypertensive meds. So I did not give him any yesterday until I could talk to the vet. I called this morning and had a 2:30 appt but then when I gave him a little bath..he wasn't grooming himself SAt or Sun..I thought maybe he had a blockage but he had a soft belly so...I took him in early...in his UA he was now kickingout sugars, his BP was coming down, but his bloods were a mess..values all tanked...kidney values shot way up, blood count plunged ( he was not anemic at all a month ago..that was real strong) his platelets were tanked, his tongue was pale..It is suspected he was bleeding internally and he was getting fluid in the lungs. I got back to the vet about 3:30 at the latest and he was near death when I got there..He died about 4:45. He was so unusual in that he had no symptoms of kidney failure..no vomiting, no loss of appetite and no wt loss..there was no hint at all..then wham I come home on the 22June to find a problem in the eye..and all hell broke lose after that..at first on the 2 week f/u he seemed to be doing well..coming along but then today..he just couldn't go on. He was such a brave little kitty...never whined or cried fussed...such a sweet little thing that liked to polish your shoes, and play soccer with his dry food..get one piece and bat it around the kitchen then eat it and get the next one..Just thought you would like to know.. Talk to you later..just cant right now.
