Thank you all for your prayers. Popeye is wheezing and weak, but he still fought me tooth and nail when I tried to get some water, tuna water, and fancy feast down him. I don't think he got enough of any to do any good. He just hates to be medicated so badly that if whatever is wrong CAN be fixed through medication I just don't know if it's worth it to his quality of life.
He's had high blood pressure a long time, and is going blind even on medication for that. I put that med. in a spoonful of fancy feast and even that doesn't always work. He's lost weight and I wonder if he's now hyper-t or something. He's also losing his hearing as well. He has a heart murmur too.
Popeye ALWAYS has to be right in my face wherever I am. He sleeps beside me or on top of me. But last night he wouldn't sleep on the bed at all and keeps hiding under furniture. I feel like
that means he doesn't want to be bothered with a lot of tests, force feeding, med.s, etc........ :( But then again, even wrapped in a towel he fought hard to keep me from feeding him anything or getting any water down him. So I just don't know. I'm very sad. I've had Popeye since he was about 4 weeks old. He was at the shelter WITHOUT a mother in December. He's always been a 'woolsucker' from not having his mom when he was a baby.
