Hi all

My ginger moggy Simon could use a few of your purrs at the
moment. He’s 20 years old and for the past year has been on
medication and having regular vet checks for chronic renal
failure. The medication has really helped improve his quality of
life up till now, and although he’s been steadily losing weight
and muscle tone, he’s still been enjoying his three favourite
things – eating, sleeping and lying in the sun. He’s not very
mobile these days and can’t jump up onto the bed any more, but he
knows how to ask for a lift when he wants up. This morning he
hoed into his breakfast as usual, but when I checked on him
before going to work, he’d thrown it all up. I’ve lost 2 cats to
CRF in the past, and both times throwing up was the first sign
that things were going downhill fast. I hope Simon will be
feeling better tonight. I don’t want to force any invasive
treatment on him at his age – he’s had a good innings – but I
really don’t him to be feeling sick either. Could he have a few
of your purrs?

Mega Purrs for Simon to be okay, and to you, too, Helen. I've also
lost two cats to CRF and have a CRF cat now. Hopefully, this is just
a hairball thing or something minor, and Simon will be with you a long
time yet.

Purrs for Simon and hoping he will continue to love his three things
until it is his time to go to the bridge.

Oh gosh. Purrs on the way. I'm sorry you battling this with Simon. This
is a awful disease.

Keep us up to date.. all four of my kitties will be purring like crazy for
Simon.

Purrs,

Thanks for the purrs everyone. Good news so far. Simon didn't
throw up again yesterday. He managed to eat most of his dinner
and even tried to pinch a bit of mine. He seemed a bit restless
afterwards and wandered around the house for a bit, but
eventually he lay down in front of the telly with me,
interrupting the shows now and then with loud snores.
Hopefully he did just try to eat too much too fast. I love that
little b****r!
