I had been giving updates under the thread Hampton the feral cat returns after 8 months http://www.thecatsite.com/t/295873/hampton-the-feral-cat-returns-after-8-months-of-being-gone
yet have decided to start a fresh thread. You can read about Sadie's adventures in the thread starting post #10.
Sadie continues to be up and down. Last Friday she had the best day ever. She was to the vet for a laser treatment, adequan injection and I gave her a B12 injection that day as well. She was moving around so well and holding her head up and even playing some. She ate and ate. Saturday morning she was once again doing really well. Then she started to crash. I had one last anti inflammatory pill left and gave it to her that afternoon. It seemed to perk her up. She was good again that evening.
Sunday morning she was very wobbly. She didn't eat too well either. Yet she perked up late morning and played a bit then too. I did a 30 minute Reiki healing session with her. She was so relaxed that she was snoring in my lap. After the treatment she was exhausted. She slept for hours. I went to check on her to see if she would eat some more. She couldn't get up. I tried to help her, but she just fell. Her eyes were vacant. She has been loving my DH and wouldn't perk up for him either. Later that afternoon, I gave her more pain meds. She seemed nauseated as she was licking her lips and I found a small pile of liquid vomit. After the pain meds began to work, I gave her 1/4 of a pepcid to see if it would help her stomach. It did help and she perked up some and ate a bit before bed. I decided to get up during the night to give her more pain meds. She was definitely in pain. I cried and cried yesterday. It was pitiful watching her not be able to get up.
This morning she was walking around just fine. Happy to see us and purring up a storm. She ate some. We go back to the vet this afternoon. She will have another laser treatment, adequan injection and then who knows what else.
I am beginning to wonder if her toxoplasmosis is not active and her symptoms are all a result of her injuries. She has been on the antibiotic for a week now and nothing has changed. We see moments of change, but nothing consistent.
