Kerry,
It's good news that Flavia is feeling better, you know how much I pray
that it continues. As far as the others not welcoming her back with
open arms... Remember, she stinks! She has that strong vet hospital
smell on her that is very upsetting to kitties. Even the best, most
loving friends will hiss when the get a whiff of that nasty smell.
They'll calm down when the stink wears off. I know how busy you are,
thank you for keeping us informed as best you can.
Blessings and prayers,
Nina

Wanted to let you all know how Flavia is, but first I apologize for
not being able yet to reply to your kind individual emails--thank you
so much--it's been a crazy two days.
Flavia's hematocrit went from 6 (or 7.5 depending on which reading) to
17 with the transfusion. She had dep and dex today (THANK YOU
MICHELLE) and antibiotics--the vet did not want to put her on Pred,
felt it would be too much for her--and tonight her hematocrit was up
to 21.So, she's home, and acting pretty normal, eating drinking, going
in box, and being very curious about everything in the room. She's
sort of still letting me pet her but I think she's reasserting her
feisty feral self as well. I'm sleeping in their room tonight. I took
lots of pix of her when we got back tonight. One or two should be
really good.
Snowball is not being nice to her--he's snarling at her. And she was
his girlfriend not so long ago. Well, we've all been there, right.
Still, I'm a bit upset on her behalf. The others didn't exactly
welcome her back with open paws. She's alone in walking around and
checking out the room. The others are all hiding (or snarling) as if
she's a major threat to them.
We go back to vet on Saturday to check the hemato again. That will be
a critical time. Please send positive thoughts for Flavia and for the
test result at the vet Saturday.....thanks again for all the fantastic
support. It literally is a lifesaver. Kerry
