I am so wrapped up in Kitty right now I forgot to pass on something I have
learned that may make life easier for the other little one. Raise the food
and water bowls a little--3-4 inches seems to have helped with Kitty. She
does not have to bend so far over and "swallow up hill." Pepsid and
simethicon (liquid, baby--gas relief or some other name, as little flavor as
possible) seem to help too. Check with your vet about the doses on the
Pepsid. You can cause problems if you give too much. However, those
problems seem to be long term so you will have to make judgments.
If you have men who will
exclude any of God's creatures
from the shelter of
compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with
their fellow man.

Ask her what she needs and wants. Kitty was very plain about it all. No
chemo. No intervention. Forget it . Nope. No way. This was in Jan to
Feb 2005. We are having problems now. I ask prayers that I will
continue to abide by her wishes. This may be your prayer. If it is, I
hope you can do it. I never knew how hard it was to intentionally do
nothing. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures

I just got back from the vet, they found fluid that was
pressing on her esophagus, making it hard for her to swallow. Now
they see a mass in one of her lymphglands, and I am
waiting for results of the tests. If she has lymphoma, they
suggest chemotherapy treatment. If she also has FeLV, would
this weaken her system more? Can she also get FelV treatment
at the same time? I am very worried about her, she ate today,
but sleeps a lot more. Please pray for her and that she gets
the help she needs.
