Re: Wowie

Do you mean RBC are low? That's red blood cells. If they are high, he is not anemic.   People have had a lot of luck with Epogen or Immuno-Regulin, combined with steroids and doxicycline, for anemia.  I-R has helped at least one cat on this list with low WBC as well.

I took Wowie to the vet yesterday and he is not eating but not beacuse of his teeth. He is not well and in fact, his health has taken a turn for the worst. The prognosis is not good and neither is my state of mind. I have to make a decision this week. His blood work came back showing he is anemic, his bilirubin levels are high, his RBC count is also high, WBC count is low. She said he doesn't have much time. She also said she believes he is younger than the 5 years that most vets had estimated. She gave me steriods to try and get him to eat and clavimox. I don't know what to say. I'm at a loss. Though I knew this day would come when I took him in just 7 months ago, it could still never be easy. Thanks for listening. Rebecca
