Awww. Thanks for the update. I know how much you love them. Hope he is loving on you tonight.

Re: [Felvtalk] Murphy is improving!! Beginning to eat on his own!!!
Ditto what Bonnie said. Well said, Bonnie. "Love animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble their joy, don't harass them, don't deprive them of their happiness, don't work against God's intent. Man, do not pride yourself on superiority to animals; they are without sin, and you, with your greatness, defile the earth by your appearance on it, and leave the traces of your foulness after you - alas, it is true of almost every one of us!"~Fyodor Dostoyevsky -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Bonnie Hogue Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2010 11:43 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Murphy is improving!!

[Felvtalk] Murphy is improving!! Beginning to eat on his own!!!
Wooo Hooo!! Before I left for work this morning, I gave him his meds (Interferon 1cc into the mouth, and the capsules-one with doxy and cypro, one with lasix and 1/2 pred, I fill the extra space in those capsules with powdered Lysine, and one cap with Rutin, so his am is 3 capsules and in the pm he gets one more with iron). Washed it down with unflavored Pedialyte and then 3 syringes (I use the 3cc) of watered down AD food from the vet. I left instructions for Glenn and my son Corey to try to give him some food and Pedialyte throughout the day. When I got home tonight he came wobbling out into the kitchen to greet me!! I am ecstatic at this point. I gave him his meds and fixed some food, some fancy feast and another dish of AD. I put him up on the counter (I have to feed above Aussie height!) in the spare bathroom and he worked on the fancy feast for awhile. He came into the kitchen for some kitty treats, then laid down for quite awhile. When he woke up, I carried him into the bathroom where the litter box was (we took the cover off of it) and he went in by himself!! He is still real wobbly and spends most of the time lying down, but he is more alert and wanting to spend time near us, not in the dark spare room. A little while ago I felt something brush my legs, I looked down expecting Rosie but it was Murphy!! He laid down quickly and I sat on the floor petting him and talking to him. He'll get another 21 units of Procrit tomorrow night. Man, all of your purrayers are working!! Hopefully he is going to keep improving, good thing they have 9 lives. Another funny thing-last night when I walked past Rosie, she reached out and smacked my leg. I turned around and walked past her to see what she was trying to do and she smacked me again!! I think she is feeling neglected!! I haven't spent much time with her since Monday with all the worrying about Murphy. So tonight I have been playing with her-she likes to race ahead of you and do a forward roll, flop over on her back and have you rub her tummy! Thanks for all of your purrayers and kind thoughts. This is a battle not easily won and these little victories are sadly temporary for the most part, but I am grateful for every day.
