Sick Kitty

[lavendertook]

My Mooshkin is having another bad bout of pancreatitis that started on Wednesday. She seemed to be getting a little better this morning as she ate better, and the spasms are gone, but she seemed weaker this evening and wouldn't eat much. It could be that's it's raining hard out this evening and she does have arthritis, so the pancreatic pain might still be getting better but the joint pain is now worse, so I'm hoping she'll be better in the morning, but she needs the meds I powder in her food to get better, so it's a tough cycle to break out of. Moo has a bout every 2 to 3 months and I then add an anti-nausea drug to her regular assortment for a week, by the end of which she is better, but this is a bad one with bad gas she hasn't had before.

I will take her to the vet on Monday if she is not better by then and something else might be adding to it. It's just hard seeing her feeling so poorly and weak, and not knowing if this is the time it won't get better and I need to end her misery. Though Tuxie has diabetes, he's so physically strong, full of appetite and curiosity that Moo isn't, which I suspect is due to chronic pain, and I don't think she will be around near as long as he will be if I can keep him regulated. If you have a chance, please send good wishes her way. She's had a lousy week, poor woozle.

Poor kitty. It's awful when you are responsible for caring, know if it's gone far enough or if they're going to recover. I hope she's feeling better tomorrow.

Poor Moo!!! It's so hard to see our purry furries not feeling well! Hope she is feeling better soon!

May Bast's blessings be upon her and upon you.

Oh poor Moo, I hope she’s feeling better.

Poor Moo! It's so difficult to see them sick like that! Here's hoping she'll pull out of this quickly! ❤️

Does she have a heated bed? Wondering if that could help the arthritis.

Take care, both of you!

Oh no! We will hold her in extra prayers. Poor baby. And poor you. I am so sorry you are dealing with so much stress. It's so hard when our furbabies aren't well. :( Praying for your family, and sending all the good wishes that'll fit through the pixels on the net. <3
