Nakita and I could use all your vibes....

I've only just caught up with this and what a relief!!!

Kass just be your normal self with Nakita and she'll come back to you

Just received the test results and Nakita's red blood cell count is holding at 21% (normal range 25%-45%). My vet is currently out of town so I'll have to talk to her next Tuesday about how to go forward with these results.

We can either keep monitoring her blood levels and see if they change or remain steady or go through with the bone marrow biopsy (invasive and not sure if I want to put her through another procedure so soon).

Nakita is looking more alert and is eating, but she's still hiding out in her safe place (a cardboard box in the living room). I want her to get back to her comfortable self before making her go through any more procedures.

Thanks guys for your support!

I think the fact that she is eating is VERY encouraging!

Alert and eating are good things. She'll be back out socializing soon. She is probably just kinda jittery right now.

Thanks for the updates Kass!

I hope, too, that you're able at least to bide your time a bit, before you need to subject your girl to any more "nasties".

Unfortunately, I don't think we will be able to wait. The red blood level of 21% is only one factor. We still need to find out why her body is anemic. She's tested as nonregenerative anemia - therefore her body is not producing red blood cells. A bone marrow biopsy will give some answers for that, but is very invasive and Nakita never does well with the anaesthetic. We could be dealing with an underlying disease such as cancer, severe inflammatory disease or other possibilities. The only way to start ruling each of these out is through more tests.

Like I mentioned before, it's going to be a long road to the final answer. My first concern though, is to get Nakita's weight and strength back up before proceeding with more tests.

Sending Nakita lots of prayers for any and all tests that may lay ahead.

Sending prayers and strength to both of you. You are such a good meowmy and Nakita knows it I'm sure.
