way, for both you and Bandy.

Hi everyone,
My Bandy has been very sick this week..First, we are still fighting the
ringworm, but it is our least worry for now..He starting getting limp in one
rear leg as he did back in the summer..So I took him in on Tues. and he
received basically same treatment as in the summer...He got some dex, adequan,
B vit inj, and torbutrol for pain..His temp was 103.5 which is the highest it
has been since Aug..he did seem to respond as he came home, ate ok and
drank...climbed up on his tower and would purr and talk to me..Then on Fri. or
really late Thurs night, he wouldn't eat at all or move about much..So I took
him back to the doctor Fri afternoon...His temp was still around 103 which
could explain the bad appetite, but I didn't know what else to do and still
don't...
So the vet tech called the Doctor since she is off on Fri..we ran a complete
blood chem and profile and thyroid...He hasn't had all that since June so we
were due...It didn't help
us much either...Surprising enough his PCV was 37.5 which is great...the WBC
was low normal...some other blood values grans and monocytes were off which I
don't know what all that means..his platlets were very low...Anyone know
anything about that????
I'm really scared for him now...He doesn't seem to have URI or UTI and no
mouth ulcers..no stomach trouble either..He did have a loose stool couple of
times the other day. Probably from all the meds on Tues..
I can't get him to eat...I have tried everything...He will eat a few bites at
a time and won't drink any broth either..I don't know what else to
try...Please let me know what you all think.
He also got 250cc subq fluids..today and 2 different antibiotic injections
along with 5mg pred which we are going on for a week..and if he won't eat I am
to up it to 10mg..also oxazepam for appetite stimulant...
Please keep him in your prayers..
I hope all your kitties
are doing well...we send head butts to all..
Kerry, Bandy and Inky
