My Pride and Joy (aka Joshua) is going to the vets tomorrow, he's dropping weight, not firming up his stools again, and last night, had two episodes of slight opened mouth breathing that reminded me of Chris<RB> with his chylothorax (after he'd stabilized...not when he had his acute crisis...for that, josh would have gone in immediately).
I'm not sure what this is, I'm not sure we can turn this around. He's been on borrowed time for about 3 years from a huge crisis he had at that time, and surprisingly came through. If one went solely on the brightness in his eyes, his responsiveness and purr, it shouldn't be his time, but he's way too thin, there can be no more loss, he must regain (and has been on tapazole for years, as well as a special diet for his ibd).
that it's as simple as increasing his tapazole dose and pureeing his z/d (we are down to only a few teeth). Josh is my second oldest kitty, 16+ y.o., a gorgeous Lilac Lynx Point American Curl(and was my beloved Christopher's father, he is Patrick's son).
Please be thinking of him tomorrow.
