Dilema with heavy heart

My heart goes out to all of you, as so do my prayers. He is beautiful.

This is sad. Maybe if we had your post moved to the Health forum, someone might have had a similar experience with their cat. I hope your baby gets better.

He is such a beautiful boy..my prayers are with you. Just hang in there..he sounds like a fighter

Wow, his colors are striking! I hope you can find a way to help Kahekili soon. It must be heartbreaking for you!

Precious baby, please get well!

I just can't help thinking that if he's that much of a trooper, that much of a good boy, there should be some way to help him. Some reason he's so upbeat.

Well, keep us updated, and you never know where an answer could come from!

{{{Prayers and vibes}}} coming your way for positive diagnosis and improved health for your precious cat, and for encouragement & support for his wonderful, loving family. God bless you all! Hugs and purrs, Susan & cat crew

He is so beautiful and his expression so loving. I just hope you can find a way to help him. Sadly, I have no specific advice, but lots of good vibes.

He's gorgeous. I wish you all the very best in finding treatment for him, don't give up hope

Sending good vibes and prayers to you and your sweet boy.

Thanks to all of you for the kind words, support and good vibes. It's much appreciated!
Kahekili is pretty much the same today, except that when we exercised him, he showed some signs of pain. We massage his limbs and move them around to get the blood flow going and this morning he was clearly uncomfortable about some of it.
I don't know if that is a good sign or bad sign, but I have a call into our vet.
Now if this hurricane will get over with so he can call back.

Oh thats a shame I hope it's nothing, but your doing everything you can until you see the vet remember that

Poor baby - he looks like such a sweetheart!
I really hope you find out what is wrong, this must be awful for you

Just caught up Giant hugs to you and lots of prayers and well wishes for the gorgeous boy! Hope someone can help him! I am so sorry this is happening!

I can find no words to express my dismay for you and your family. It makes my heart hurt so I can only imagine what you must be feeling and going through.

Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

I am sorry to hear about your and your beloved Bengal's delimma. I agree with the idea of looking into getting kitty wheels made. I know several cats who adjust very well to living with no legs and move around extremely well with little carts. In fact, cats adjust far better than we humans do!! I would see if the vet can help the pain tho - cats are usually good at hiding pain so the fact he showed he was uncopmforatable is somewhat worrying - if the source of the pain is found, that would be so helpful!

There are some amazing sucess stories of pets out there - please don't give up yet!

Took the boy into the vet again today and got him juiced up with another steroid shot to relieve any inflamation he might have in and around his spine.
He also got a shot of vitamin B12.
He's in better spirits now and has regained enough movement to roll over on his own....that really made his face happy. Ours too!
He even let out a little happy bengal chirp (you bengal owners know what I mean)
We got him an appointment Monday with a Neurologist at the University in Raleigh (Vet college). He'll get a MRI and I pray they'll find something we can get fixed.

It sure helped to have all your support on this thread...thanks!!

Oh thats some good news then isn't it! Be positive because they've come a long way in medicine

I'm glad you got him an appt at the vet college. Hope they're able to give y'all some really good help. Keep us posted.
