worst is over for you and Villy. We all love our fur kids so much. This could happen to any one of us. I will keep sending up prayers and watching this forum for updates. Step back and take a deep breath and try to relax a bit. You need it.

Thanks everyone. You are all really helping me and Villy through this, I really appreciate it.

The vets just rang, Villyâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s been eating a little bit, not much, so sheâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s still losing condition.

On the other hand they think she is recovering well from the surgery and are “cautiously optimisticâ€

They wonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have the results of the biopsy done on the matter in her chest until early next week.

They are going to monitor her over the next 24 – 36 hours and are hoping to send her home late tomorrow.

I mentioned that I was nervous of having her home while she is so fragile, and he said that he wonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t send her home until sheâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s stronger than she is at the moment.

It just scares me because they are vets and can be with her 24/7, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m just a normal person, and canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be there for her 24/7, as much as Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d like to be!

What a little trooper Villy is


Jessy, don't be nervous when you get her home. Just remember the surgery is on the other end of the phone no matter what time it is if your worried, and of course theres always someone here as well


More healthy coming over

Can you go to the vet's and spend some time with her? Or do you think that would be harder on her when you leave and she has to stay there?
Recovery for Villy and
for both of you. My girls say to give Roxy some chin scritches from them so she won't feel so lonely.

I did that every day a year and a half ago, when our "tuxedo cat", Morgan was in the vet's, for 5 days, for not eating.

I think in that case it helped, the vet thought so too. Today she is fine, the only eating issue with her is we don't give her treats EVERY time she asks, which si frequent.

I have been following this and extend best wishes for a positive outcome.

You and Villy are in my prayers as well.

Get better soon Villy, you have an entire cat site rooting for you!

Hey everyone, the vet just rang, all being well I can bring Villy home tomorrow evening or Saturday morning. I can go in to see her, but it's quite distressing for her, they have to take her off the ward, into a consulting room, we did this on Monday and she didn't look
very happy with it! I feel terrible, I'm so scared to have her home. How can I be scared of my girl???? I'm crying as I write this. I'm scared because I can't be there for her all the time. I can't take time off work, and have tickets to an event on Saturday night, it's been planned for months. I'm scared to leave her alone. At least at the vets she's got vet care 24/7.

She may just want to nap once she comes home anyway, plus Roxy's there to keep her company.

Will you be out for long?
That's just what I was thinking. When I stay home from work, my cats just sleep all day anyway. When they are a little under the weather, they sleep even more.

Hopefully she'll be able to come home tomorrow then, that way you have all night with her to get used to her being there?.

Really though, i think she'll be fine once she's home and in her own bed

The vet rang this morning, she's a bit quiet today. They think she's fed up with being in the hospital now. They took her sticky plasters off her wounds and she cheered up a bit.
I'm going up there after work, to see her, and we'll see if she's ready to come home.
I just hope and pray that they have fixed her and when we get the biopsy results next week it's nothing harmful.
I can't wait to have her home, to give her lots of love and kisses, fuss her and cheer her up. Maybe she needs to be in her own surroundings now, maybe even seeing Roxy will help?

that Villy is coming along. You know people do better in a familiar environment when recovering from a trauma. I am so happy that this may solve her problems. I think of you two often and will still be sending up thoughts for her to be well again. You are a good mom!

Thank you everyone!

I really believe that everyone's positive thoughts are helping her. It's something to do with quantum physics - we are actually all one existence.......

I'm off to the vets now, fingers crossed she's strong enough to come home. I don't have a computer at home, but might be able to get on here via my phone, so don't be alarmed if you don't hear anything until Monday

Hi everyone, Villy's home! I wasn't sure if she should come home as she looks so frail and wouldn't eat at the vets, but they said to try, and see if she relaxes more at home. She's not interested in her food, but she's licked some butter off my finger and has eaten a few treats. If I have any concerns I can call them any time. She has to go back on Wednesday. She has a huge wound from surgery, with stitches, under her belly. Fingers crossed she eats soon. She's just had a drink and is curled up next to me on the bed right now. Xx
