Figaro (our newest cat) has been really sick the past two days - moping, sleeping a lot, and as of last night, diarrhea/vomiting. I took him to the vet today, who kept him for tests. He called me back and told me he's really sick - he has jaundice "five fold" and they're keeping him overnight to give him a lot of fluids (he has a temperature of 104º) and start pushing antibiotics into his system. They're doing x-rays tomorrow to see if it's liver, gull bladder, or pancreas.

I've been doing research on the internet and he's got a 50/50 chance right now - they say this kind of thing can be fatal, but I've read in a lot of things that if caught early it can be fixed.

He's my little snuggle bunny and I love him to pieces - I've never had a cat so dependent on me...when I wake up in the morning he's there in bed with me, then follows me out of the bedroom to be held. He has to crawl into my lap and give me hugs and get headbutts before he'll let me start my day. So needless to say I'm not doing well...and Erik's in the field right now until Thursday, so I have to deal with this on my own.

Any prayers you can spare would be appreciated. I believe in the power of prayer and I pray that God is watching over my baby tonight, helping him get better.

May God and his Angels keep your baby in their hands and make him well.

Thank you so much, everyone...I'm counting down the minutes until I can go to bed so I can wake up and find out how he's doing.
