Smokey, the resident senior, is not well

Post by Bendy Kitty »

she was requiring 100mls of fluids a day, along with her anti-nausea meds and her antibiotic & heart med.
now, the past couple days, she has been requiring 100mls twice a day, and hiding. not good.
teh vet had said that Smokey's stomach felt thickened & enlarged and that she had an enlarged lymph node.
we've been down this road too many times to fool ourselves.
Mom wrote an email to Smokey's owner - Smokey came here to retire earlier this year because her owner was getting frail and coudl no longer care for her. The lady has made sure Smokey's expenses have been covered and is a very kind woman. Mom hated to write her teh sad news.
we don't know if Smokey will be ehre come T-day or not. its hard to say.
:(
