Poor
Ziggy! About 6 months ago I told all of you that Ziggy's second feline
leukemia test came back negative and he was ok and cured. Well I was
wrong.
He was losing weight and just not acting like himself (he
was hiding and
not playing with the other kitties). So i took him to
the vet last night
for an emergency appointment. They restested him
and he was positive. On
top of that he has an ear infection and his
blood work came back really low.
His red cell count was
horrible. So they kept him over night and ran
tests.
They put an IV in and gave him a blood tansfusion. Today they are
going to do a bone marrow aspiration to see if his bone marrow is
producing
and blood cells. So the vet said that the long term
prognosis is poor at
best but i'm hoping he can make it through this to
come home for a bit. So I
should be writing back soon to keep you updated
on Ziggy's condition. Thank
you,
Laura
