Earl Grey Update
Earl Grey's Mom here:
I just talked to the vet. He has to stay another night. His ALT value (a liver enzyme) is down to 481 (from 1076). It's still high (it should only be 120 max), but it's improving. He won't eat on his own yet, so they're still syringe feeding him every 3-4 hours. They're going to recheck his liver stuff tomorrow at 4 to make sure everything is still headed in the right direction. We're still praying hard that he starts eating and his liver goes back to normal. Thank you all for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. This kitty community is just so super. I'm going to visit him tonight and will make sure to tell him that you all are pulling for him. Thanks again!
I posted the above on our blog, but just wanted to let you know what was going on. Thank you, Skeezix, Mr. TF, and the Food Lady for getting the word out about our boy.
All these positive thoughts and purrayers are doing the trick and you have no idea how much it means to us.
Thank you so much.
Love,
Earl Grey's Mom
UPDATE frum Earl Grey's Mom:
This is Earl Grey's Mom. They x-rayed him yesterday and didn't see any obstruction. He is still in the hospital, but is doing a lot better. We visited him last night and cuddled a little. I talked to the V-E-T this morning and she said he's alert and curious about everything that's going on in the room. He has been getting stinky goodness by syringe and it's staying down, so we're very happy about that. They also started giving him his medication by mouth and that's staying down, too. *thumbs up* They're going to re-check his liver values at 4 pm, so hopefully they'll be better. If all goes well, he can come home tonight.
Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers. Please continue to keep him in your prayers. We really need his liver values to improve.
Please keep Titus and Tazo in your thoughts, too. They really miss their brother.
Thank you again.Love,
Earl Grey's Mom

I am so glad Earl Grey is doing better! It is NO FUN staying at the hospital. I am purring and purring for his liver values to improve, and for him to go home very soon.
Always a relief to hear good news from the vet! Hope he is on the mend now!!
That's some good mews, at least! They're in our purrayers. Thanks for the update, Skeezix!
We won't stop purraying until Earl Grey is home and healthy.
Lots of "paws up" here to Earl Grey - we're so glad he's getting better. We hope he'll be back home with his fur siblings in no time!

We are having a similair problem with Mittens, she can't keep anything down. Had her food changed to low residue Ukenuba, which helped for months, but has stopped. Her blood work all came back normal. Such a worry.
