A prayer for Shredder. Bless him and make him well, please.
Keep us informed, Hissy. I hope he gets to destroy many more paper towels in his lifetime, and I know you'd be happy to buy him his own roll if he feels better.

His temperature was way subnormal. He won't eat even when force fed he barfed it up. The vet cannot find anything wrong other than a really sore back like he has been hit by a car or something. Bloodwork was taken, but vet warned me that his suspicions lie in te the area of involving either the kidneys or liver. They will call first thing tomorrow morning with the lab results.

The only time he is not crying, yowling or growling is when some part of him is touching some part of me. I have moved past the point of exhaustion and am bordering on tension fatigue. Please remember him in your thoughts and lets see if this board and it's members still retains some of that magic to get him through this. At this point, I just want answers. The vet says that the symptoms that Shred presents are all over the map as far as a firm diagnosis, that is why he suspects he was hit and has internal injuries of some kind.

Oh Hissy...I am so sorry that Shredder is suffering so much. Is there not anything that can be given to him to help ease the pain a little bit?

I am sending mega prayers your way and hope for a speedy recovery for Shredder. And....a night of sleep for you. Take care of yourself. Shredder needs his mommy in top shape.
