Jen, Don't give up hope! This virus is as unpredictable as it is heartbreaking, and your kitty could turn around in no time at all. It's ok to prepare for the worst, but don't expect it. I will definitely keep Allie in my prayers. Just love her as much as you can, spoil her rotten, and also, take pictures so if she does cross the bridge, you will have visible memories of her to hold on to in the tough times. Keep your chin up and stay positive for Allie!
