My Rustle got admitted to the Vet hospital today.
he was doing really bad yesterday,he had the runs,poor sweetie, he had goo coming out his eyes ,alot of it too,so I rinsed his eyes with opti-clense for cats ,he has over the past week developed a bit of muscle wasting around his spine,and he had the symptoms of a respiratory infection,but the cold-like symptoms subsided today,last night I was scared shit less for him,feeding him spoonfuls of broth and water and nutrical. I was awake all night I could not sleep.I was ok,but I was on DU late trying to distract myself as he slept.
He looked a bit better this morning ,but still not good,very lethargic.But his eyes were clear and fine tho.I called the vet,Told her his symptoms,she said Get him there right away.My sister drove me there. I was so thankful she could help him.

At the vets they took a blood test, took his temperature and it was low,suprisingly low. They put him on IV fluids and before I left him there,as I said bye he was finally eating .we touched noses in between his gulps of food and I kissed his head..I was so glad he was eating again..The blood test,said all his basic functions liver,kidneys etc.were all good,he appeared healthy in that sense .So the next step is to look for possible tumors or infections.They will be doing x rays and such tomorrow..I am so worried about him, my other two cats, Vinnie and Sparkle are upset,too.So I am giving them alot of touching and holding, Now a severe storm is coming and I think I'd better shut off my computer..I hear thunder now.

But before I go I want to ask you guys to
Please send up some sage,call Bast/Sekhmet or do whatever you do,metaphysically, to help him,be it long distance reiki or anything else because if he has a tumor ,I ask Sekhmet to make it be operable and let this problem he may have be contained and eliminated fast.I love my Rustle so much.And I want him to make it.He is such a great cat freind,a golden heart he has,I do not want him to go before his time.This is a pic of my sweet most precious, Rustle.I took it about 3 weeks ago on my camera phone..

1. just got a new four-legged in our house earlier this week...
a pound rescue dog, sweet as can be.

They burrow into your heart, might fast.

All good vibes to you and Rustle, U.P...!

2. Sending love and light and the highest vibrations to Rustle
I'm a cat fanatic too--it's so horrible when our little friends are in pain.

7. He is a handsome fellow
I hope he recovers and returns home quickly. Sounds like you did the right thing with the broth... they are amazing in how they spring back to health. I hope that it is the case with Rustle!

8. Sending healing light now, Panther
Your beautiful Rustle looks like our Dilbert--aren't orange tabbies the best? I'll ask our kitties to send their good vibes to Rustle too. Please keep us posted on how he's doing! :hug:

Dilbert being grumpy:

12. Rus has his crank ass side too.
With him when he's being an ass you gotta watch the dewclaw.If he wants something you got he'll hook you with it and drag you and it to him.
Yeah orange cats rock.Rustle is a cream,or as my mom says Yellow. It's technically an orange dilute,domestic shorthair.
But I know he really is a lion god in cat form.

15. Oooh yeah
Edited on Wed Jul-23-08 08:35 PM by MorningGlow
All our cats have their claws, and they can be quite prickly (literally). Many years ago Dilbert and I had an accidental run-in when he was worked up about a cat outside our front door, and I surely came away the worse for it. (He had the fire in his belly and accidentally attacked my hand as I tried to shut the door so the other cat wouldn't peer through the screen at him. Puncture wounds, much blood--mine--and cat-scratch fever ensued. To his credit, once he realized what he had done, he freaked out and hid. He was quite penitent.)

On edit: Whoops--didn't see your other post about Rustle. Will go read it now.

10. I sent last night and will again
I asked beautiful Lady Bastet and all beings of light willing and able to help your dear Rustle to do so in every way possible as I sent Reiki. He is one handsome fellow and I am glad he has a such a loving human to be his companion here on earth. :grouphug:

I also send and ask for you also to have the support and healing you need at this time as well. :grouphug:

13. My hands have been hot all week.
They feel like they are burning.It kinda hurts in the finger tips.That's what I feel when the Reiki flows very strongly.I shake my hands out and it gets hot again.Been doing this all day.
