Re: Belinda: looking for advice re kitty prozac

Hi Kerry,
Yes the flouxetine stopped that all together, he didn't mark while 
he was on it.  I kept him on it for about 6 months then took him off it 
because he was just laying around, thinking it was the flouxetine that 
was making him lazy, but come to find out that is just the way Cody is.  
He does mark on occasion, every few months, nothing like before.  He 
used to mark all over the house several times a day, everyday.  The 
first med made it less often, the second even less often, but the 
flouxetine stopped the behavior completely.  I was told that half the 
animals using it would go back to marking if taken off, but decided to 
give it a try.

I decided not to put him back on it because I can deal with marking 
every few months, if it gets worse I would put him back on it.

Marylyn, Susan, Wendy, Caroline, Diane R., Glenda and family and Tonya,
   Thank you all for your kind and comforting messages.  I am missing my 
sweet girl so much.


   Marylyn, I loved the image of Miss Sue actually playing with the birds 
now.


   Caroline, my condolences go out to you on the loss of your sweet Monkee. 
I have not been able to keep up with posts recently, sorry to say, but 
wanted to read more about the ceremony you had for Monkee.  He was truly 
loved, that much was plain to see just from the topic titles regarding 
Monkee.  Will you take another cat for a friend?   That is very much a nice 
thought about the quiet and peace that came out of Monkee's passing.


   Susan, the vet never suspected diabetes with Miss Sue and she never 
exhibited the classic symptoms of excessive thirst and/or peeing and/or 
weight loss so I think I can safely say that no, she was not diabetic.


   Thank you all so much, once again.  Your support is so appreciated, as 
always,


Anne and Sophie and the other fur covered friends in Michigan along with 
FeLV angels Jimi Too Cool, Simms, Buggsy and Nala

I also wanted to express my sadness at your kitty's passing. Having just 
lost my beloved Monkee in the early morning hours of July 16, I can truly 
say that I feel your pain. And sadly, I had just told my mother that this 
list serve has been really quiet...literally, since Monkee's passing. That 
almost all of the topics discussed since he passed have been Off Topic. It 
made me oddly happy to think that Monkee's passing kind of kicked off a 
period of peacefulness for the members of this group. It just seemed like no 
one was really having any crises with their feleuk cats. And, although 
another member's non-feleuk cat- Keisha- passed just before Monkee on that 
Sunday, from what I could tell, no one else has lost a cat since Monkee and 
Keisha-- almost two weeks of quiet. I'm sure that sounds a little out 
there, but I couldn't help but notice
that in the wake of Monkee's death and it just really comforted me to think 
that no one else was having to go through what I've been going through these 
past almost two weeks.
For me, I realize that by having only Monkee, he was my absolute world and 
my house has been too quiet and lonely since he's been gone. You have your 
other babies to focus on and to lean on, so take advantage of that.

Best of luck to you and the remainder of your babies.

Well that's a pretty good report!  So your not having to do the dreaded 
subq fluids anymore?  If you are, has he gotten better about accepting 
it?  I know the murmur is troubling, (how wonderful that your vet can 
come by the house to recheck), prayers that it's nothing to worry 
about.  Prayers also that he begins to put on more weight. The only 
thing that I know of to help with nutrient retention is Vita B, is he 
getting that too?  Give him a head bump from me.  Well done Belinda.

   Hi Nina,
  No, no feeding tube yet.  He has a heart murmur nos something he 
didn't have two weeks ago, everything else for the most part has 
improved.  Creatinine is high normal (2.4 was 3.3), BUN very slightly 
high (40 was 52), potassium a little low (3.7), getting supplements 
for that, phosphorus normal (3.6 was 8), his extremely high blood 
pressure is way down from 284 to 173 in about 3 weeks.  His sodium is 
low and chloride is low, so adding salt to his food.   My vet is 
coming by Friday to listen to his heart and see if she still hears the 
murmur and we'll see how his weight goes, so far he's holding at 8lbs 
9oz, was 9lbs about a month or so ago.  Poor guy seems like every time 
I feed him I'm shoving pills down him, he is so good about it.  She 
talked with a feline specialist about the feeding tube for CRF kitties 
and the specialist said yes she would use it if needed.  Reason we 
were wondering is because at some point in CRF progression, the 
metabolism changes and a catobolic state occurs, they don't know what 
causes it or how to stop it, but it basically means they lose weight 
and muscle wasting happens.  My vets cat was eating like a piggy, her 
words, yet only weighted 4 pounds when she finally euthanized her, she 
was slowly starving to death because of the catabolic state.  
Something to do with not absorbing the protein and nutrients in their 
food if I'm understanding it correctly.


We'll see how things go Friday.

Re: Belinda - What's going on with Fred?

2007-01-22 Thread Belinda

   Hi Nina,
  No, no feeding tube yet.  He has a heart murmur nos something he 
didn't have two weeks ago, everything else for the most part has 
improved.  Creatinine is high normal (2.4 was 3.3), BUN very slightly 
high (40 was 52), potassium a little low (3.7), getting supplements for 
that, phosphorus normal (3.6 was 8), his extremely high blood pressure 
is way down from 284 to 173 in about 3 weeks.  His sodium is low and 
chloride is low, so adding salt to his food.   My vet is coming by 
Friday to listen to his heart and see if she still hears the murmur and 
we'll see how his weight goes, so far he's holding at 8lbs 9oz, was 9lbs 
about a month or so ago.  Poor guy seems like every time I feed him I'm 
shoving pills down him, he is so good about it.  She talked with a 
feline specialist about the feeding tube for CRF kitties and the 
specialist said yes she would use it if needed.  Reason we were 
wondering is because at some point in CRF progression, the metabolism 
changes and a catobolic state occurs, they don't know what causes it or 
how to stop it, but it basically means they lose weight and muscle 
wasting happens.  My vets cat was eating like a piggy, her words, yet 
only weighted 4 pounds when she finally euthanized her, she was slowly 
starving to death because of the catabolic state.  Something to do with 
not absorbing the protein and nutrients in their food if I'm 
understanding it correctly.


We'll see how things go Friday.

  Hi Nina,
   Bailey is hanging in there, I took him to emergency Sunday night he 
was breathing hard and fast, his nostrils were flaring and it scared 
me.  When we finally saw the vet he was a bit better, and he had a fever 
of 104.2.  She listened to his lungs and said he was getting air at a 
bit of a diminished rate, she said his gums are nice and pink, he was 
slightly dehydrated but she didn't think he was in crisis and said she 
could do an xray to check for fluid or I could wait and take him to my 
regular vet in the morning.  Since he was better already I decided to 
see my regular vet in the morning, the ER vet gave me baytril for the 
fever, she wanted to put him on clavamox, but I didn't want to chance 
diarrhea again after our 2 week ordeal earlier so I asked if we could go 
with something else and she choose baytril.


The next morning his fever was down to 103.4, so heading in the right 
direction, and we did more xrays which showed nothing new, no fluid or 
discernable tumors.  I'm giving him fluids daily now instead of every 
other day.  He is gaining a tiny bit of weight so that is good, I feed 
him every 4 hours (not sure if you know he has a feeding tube).  His 
muscle wasting is not getting any worse, I can't say if it is getting 
better but it isn't getting worse.  In the last couple of days he has 
been moving around a bit more, still sleeps alot but that from what I 
understand is part of this syndrome (official diagnosis is myeloid 
dysplastic).  So I guess we are hanging in there.  We have a vet 
appointment tomorrow to check his temp again, and in two weeks to check 
bloodwork again.

Belinda, a bunch of people have said maybe it is time for Bailey to 
go. I did not get the impression from your post that you are there yet, 
but I have my own feelings about such things which might make me interpret 
things differently. I just want to say that if you are there, I hope you will 
try the steroid shots first to see if they make him feel better. Simon got 
a good month from getting those shots (which then enabled him to get more chemo, 
which probably also helped) and went from almost dead to running around and 
literally climbing up a wall into the ceiling one day. I am not saying that 
would necessarily happen with Bailey, but I always feel that if a cat is at the 
point that euthanasia is being considered, then what is the downside of trying 
the steroids to see if it will give them more quality time. Anyway, I did 
not think you were there yet anyway, but just wanted to add that.

Dear Belinda - I am praying and sending a healing energy for Bailey ---
If you are not ready, I am sure that Bailey is not ready, either.  When
Garfunkle was suffering, I know everyone (the vets) thought I should
euthanize him, but I was not ready.. then he bounced back which was a
miracle and was able to spend additional time with him --- so, I will be
Praying that a miracle will happened for you and him.

I tried Vaseline on their bottom when it's read from diarrhea and I
think it helps them not be so painful down there..

Sending positive healing energy to precious little life of Bailey..

Belinda,

 Dexamethasone and Depomedrol are much more powerful than 
prednisolone. Buddy, Josephine, and Simon were all on pred initially (Jo 
and Buddy at 20 mg/day for a while), but it did not make anywhere near the kind 
of difference as the dex/depo shots did. I believe the same was true for 
Jen's Ewok. I would try them. I seriously would also ask to try the first 
of the chemo drugs, again can not remember the name but starts with E, because 
it can not hurt, I do not think, and if it helps you will know it is probably 
lymphoma and can treat as such.

 No, Simon did not waste away much. He started to, but 
when he rebounded from the steroids and chemo he actually started gaining 
weight. But he had multicentric lymphoma in his bone marrow and liver, and it 
did not really affect his appetite accept when he was jaundiced, and did not 
cause much muscle wasting either. Jo and Buddy both had terrible weight loss and 
muscle wasting. Jo had lymphoma in her kidneys and intestines. Buddy was never 
definitively diagnosed-- he had no masses anywhere, and at the time I did not 
know how to humanely go about finding if there was cancer in any of his organs, 
so we just treated him with steroids. In the beginning Buddy was actually eating 
normally but still losing weight.

Re: Belinda--Elspar

2006-02-03 Thread jenmeyer
I think Elspar is the one Michelle is thinking of!  Ewok did well on
that one and Ceenu or CCNU when the other chemo drugs stopped working. 
But I believe the oncologist started him on Elspar first thing just to
get the tumor to shrink and then we started the regular protocol. 
You'll know pretty quickly if it works or not...and if it doesn't, I
would definitely do the steroid combo that Michelle suggested...it works
unbelievably fast and gave Ewok a good week in between treatments (and
he was close to the end)!

Hi Michelle,
 Not really much change, although I think the diarrhea may be clearing 
up, he still sleeps 24/7.  Hopefully once the diarrhea is gone he will 
start to feel better.

I thought he had a little more energy after his last vet visit? I am sorry 
he is so tired, but glad that he does not seem to be in discomfort. What 
is the plan for treating him? Is he on a lot of pred now?

WOW!! That IS a long time..
We never used it for more than 10 days, except w/ 
opthalmic treatmnet. And even with that, we D/C'd 
after 10 days, administered the Intranasal/Intraocular VX., (YEP!!)
