After coming home Monday to somewhat improved health, Tigger is back at the vet. He spent the night there last night because his bloodwork suggested his immune system was attacking his red blood cells.
We’re waiting to hear how the night went. He’s on an IV with fluids and steroids to see if the immune system would shape up.
Come on little buddy….we’re pulling for you.
And it means a lot that I’m pulling for you as I’m deathly allergic to cats and have never really been a fan of the whole species.
Tigger….You can do it!
Tigger is going to spend another night with the vet while we wait for more blood work. Sounds like things aren’t improving too much, but he’s still responding well to a neck scratch. I’ll stop by and see him on my way to class.
He was climbing the fence and stuff just a week or two ago! I love kitties!
Go kitty go.
Hope Tigger is o.k. He does like his neck scratches.
Gotta be the voice of reason here…
Did you say 17 years old? That’s like 20% older than most cats live when they die of old age. So maybe it’s just Tigger’s time. Maybe you’ve just gotta accept that Tigger’s gonna kick the bucket and make it comfortable for him. Besides, what are these vet bills like?
Woah, I totally came across like a cock there. Sorry.
It’s ok Tommy, we’re fully aware of the reality of the situation but are pretending until we hear about the blood work.
Tom, way to go Mr. Sympathy!
Hey Tom, my Grandma is above the average age of women and has had health problems recently. How bout we just let her go.
Matt, if I were your grandma and were loved so much by you as to be equated to a cat, I’d probably just do myself in out of self pity.
