Hi everyone,
I have been out of touch this last week as Inky has been sick...He is my
boy that is 20yrs 3 months and isn't felv+. Anyway, we were fighting the
IBD last weekend. I thought he was getting better, but then he just
wouldn't eat..And he never goes off his good entirely so I took him in this
last Tues..the blood work showed again that his kidney values were
elevated..BUN and creatinine were way up..so he has been on IV fluids since
Wed. 8am til 5pm then I go get him and bring him home for the night...Today
will be the last day and we will re-check his blood work..Last time he stayed
in the hospital for 10 days and on IV's for about 5 of it...So this time since
he doesn't tolerate sub-q's well, this would be faster and easier on him..He
likes to ride so that is a good thing..I think he had a little of both IBD and
kidney flare up which both made him throw up and loose stool..He is back on
his chicken and broth, eating well...and talking to me so I always know that
is a good sign...He is really sick when he doesn't talk at all..It is really
hard since he has to be on a kidney diet and IBD diet as I have to try to
balance all this to keep both in check..What seems to be ok for one isn't for
the other so I have really had to research his options so to try to keep them
both ok..Any thoughts on any of this is appreciated!!!
Please keep him in your prayers...also Bandy is a little under the
weather lately..he isn't eating as good as I would like, but no fever. Not
quite sure what is up with him just keeping a good eye on him...
Thanks everyone,
Head butts to all your kitties,
Kerry, Bandy and Inky
