Tracey and I had a nice visit with Sammy at the emergency veterinary hospital today. Overall, he seemed pretty alert and active, and it made us happy to watch him eat (KD, with pieces of real chick-hen mixed in!) with his normal enthusiasm. Of course he got lots of hugs, pets, scritches, snuggles and smooches, too. :)
Nom nom nom...
The vet says Sammy is tolerating the fluid therapy well, his kidney levels are stable. His blood work looks okay so far, but they will test it again tomorrow (they want to make sure they get accurate readings as he's getting more and more hydrated). We plan to visit him again tomorrow, and he'll also be having his ultrasound done. Please purr and pray that the results are "good."
Thank you, everyone. We appreciate you all
so much!
I've been thinking about Sammy all day. I'm glad you were able to visit & shower him with lots of hugs & kisses. Stable kidney levels & eating with enthusiasm are huge...very happy to read that. Wishing you the best results with the ultrasound. Will be keeping sweet Sammy in my thoughts.
We'll be crossing our paws that Sammy gets the "all clear" tomorrow and can come home! The fact he's eating and alert is great, 'specially since he's a Senior.
Aaah Sammy! we are pleased to see that you are doing well at the v-e-t. We know it's not much fun but you are getting chick-hen! We hope that the ultrasound reveals only good things and your kidneys stay stable.
Sending you lots of love and rumbly purrs with hugs for Tracy & Kevin
Awwww sweet Sammy!! You are doing ever so well!! Keep eating and please keep getting better! We hope hope hope you get to return home soon! Take care x
Keep eating the good stuff, Sammy! We're glad you're doing well at the vet, and we hope you pass all their tests with flying colors. Hopefully the hydration will perk you up and you'll be back home soon.

Glad you're eating! Being dehydrated makes you feel really cruddy! When Finny would get that way she didn't want to eat either.
Hugs to you!!

Sending healing purrs and pawsitive vibes to Sammy we has our paws crossed that all the results are good.
You look good. Dehydration makes you feel very sick so fluids is good. Maybe you can get them more often and make you feel better.
