Update 2: KFC

She was awfully unwell yesterday. She is eating soft raw minced beef
tonight, and yes, I know very well that beef is not good for a kitty with
kidney failure but like TED says there is no point trying to get a cat to
eat special kidney food if they won't and just let them eat what they will.
We did try the special food. I was hopeful as she loved it for about 2
weeks and after that no go.


I think we all have to prepare ourselves to lose her soon.
I am so unhappy, I love her and I know the end of her life is approaching so
very soon and there is nothing I can do about it.

I'm so very sorry, Christina. Nancy and I went through that with DD.
You're right, it's better that she eats whatever she likes, than ignore
the stuff that good for her.

We're thinking about both of you and Boyfie.

Dan

So sorry to hear all of that, but such is life. We will purr and
pray that when the time comes she will go peacefully and without
pain. Please keep us updated.

Lily & her mama

I think you're absolutely right to give her what she wants.

Hugs and purrs to her, and to you.

Joy

you are doing what you can, making her comfortable, and loving her, what
else is better? I am sorry this is hurting you, Lee

Purrs coming for KFC to bounch back. I agree with the decision to feed
her what she will eat over trying to force her to eat the special food.

Words can't express...I just wish I could give you a big, fat healing hug
right now. You and Kitty too.

Whatever happens, she will go to her "retirement" knowing she is well-loved,
and mightily so.

We're here, all of us...and I'm saying my prayers for you both, for the love
and strength you need.

Blessed be,
Baha

What Baha said!

But Mimi would like me to add that she wishes Boyfie's "sister" well, and
his mommy too!

I know you can only be so prepared. And that you will treasure her for as
long as she is semi-ok.

Lots of purrs from our two that the rest of her life be gentle to you and to
her.

Jo

Of course you must give her whatever food she wants. I'm so sorry to
hear she seems to be going downhill but am sending purrs for her to
spring back.
Hugs,
