Quick UPDATE: I have been neglecting work this week, so I put in a full day. I also have National Guard Drill this Weekend and have a business trip in Kansas City, MO on MON and TUE.

I am taking her to the vet for her 5th checkup at 5pm today (FRI 18 MAR 05) and stock up on heparin, dextrose, nutrical, k/d cat food, and kitty litter.

My mom is going to come by and take care of her while I am gone. I am going to try to get away SAT PM after lights-out to see if I can leave the barracks to check in on her.

Today, she seems a little brighter and better. Right now she is putting her paw on my monitor as I post on Free Republic. She is also trying to swat at the birds that come to the window feeder I have next to computer. She has gone to the bathroom twice, which makes me feel better, and I also let her out for an hour as she went to a nice, quiet place under a holly bush and slept.

I will post later tonight about her BUN, CREA, and ALT numbers.

Thanks again for the concerns and prayers.

Chris

Phew! Glad to hear she's feeling more chipper. I was worried when you didn't post an update yesterday.

My fat, spoiled cat has been exploring the back yard since the weather is warming up.

I'll second the "getting worried". So glad to hear Casey is taking an interest in birds. Good sign! Prayers still up :)

I also let her out for an hour as she went to a nice, quiet place under a holly bush and slept. I'm relieved to learn that your Viking Kittie is getting better, as I'm sure you are too.

May I make a tiny suggestion? How about keeping her inside unti she's all better. In her weakend state, she would have a hard time defending herself if another animal pounced on her. My vets have always been adamant about keeping kitties indoors until they are purrrrrfectly healthy.
