Purrs please...Omar (and Celeste) TW)

Omar, my poor little orange guy is not doing well at all. Was back at the
vet's this a.m. with him thinking this was it; he has been getting steadily
thinner and looking less well since the past weekend. He wouldn't eat last
night or this morning. My best friend Kristin met me there and she and I and
my vet all discussed what to do. Omar apparently was quite dehydrated (I
didn't pick up on it because he's so very thin now). So we're going to try
and rehydrate him, check his electrolyte levels (he got both prednisone
shots this past weekend) and see if he needed any additional prednisone .
It has occurred to us that Omar may have other unknown health problems that
we don't know about (maybe cancer?) but I just can't bring myself to subject
him to anything too invasive at this point when he is already feeling so
badly.

I told my daughter Celeste this a.m. before I took her to school that Omar
was just looking very badly and I was taking him in this morning. She asked
me if I thought Omar was going to make it to the end of the year and I told
her I thought it was very possible he would not. How could I tell her that
I thought he might not make it to the end of this day...so please, if you
can, send purrs for them both to have the chance to be with each other a
little while longer.

Will let you all know when I know more.
Sorry, I know this is a sad post. It's just so hard.

My thoughts are with you, your daughter and espcecially Omar

Don't apologize. This is what we're here for. Many purrs coming over for
you all, and sincerest hopes that Omar will still be with you a long time.

Warm and fuzzy purrs for Omar to be well enough to enjoy the holidays with
his family. Hugs and prayers for Christine and Celeste to accept what the
next couple of weeks bring, hopefully it will bring the joy of Omar home and
happy with you all.
