Re: Millie (with heart failure) had to say goodbye today : (

Ok thank you Joanne. Marmalade is getting used to not having Millie around now. I still miss her of course, it's just every now and then something reminds me of her and I feel sad. I just keep visualising her all young and well again playing with my Molly cat that I lost 2 years ago. We rescued them...

Re: Acute Kidney Failure

Hello

I could open Jimmy's photo - what a lovely boy!! I didn't know acute kidney failure could be reversed so fingers crossed for you all. Sounds like he's improving :)

Re: Acute Kidney Failure

Hello Joanne Thank you for the reply on my post about lovely Millie. I'm sorry to hear about your little one too, it's horrible when they're diagnosed with something that can't be cured. In answer to your concern though it may just be that he's recovering from just having been through an ordeal at t...

Re: Mouth cancer

Angie, we've both had to say goodbye to our lovely cats today. Big hugs to you as I know how you're feeling right now. We did both do the right thing though, before they were really suffering and in pain. That sentence doesn't help the heartbreak and emptiness right now but it will in time. Best wis...

Millie (with heart failure) had to say goodbye today : (

:cry: Hello I"ve had to say goodbye to my lovely, lovely Millie today. She was 18 years old but had heart failure and kidney disease so was a poorly girl. I do know that I made the right decision but I feel dreadful right now and just keep bursting into tears. She was rushed to the vets a week ...

Re: 18yr old just been diagnosed with heart failure. What to

Hello Sarie Thank you so much for your replies - they were all really helpful and encouraging. The vet rang today and said that Millie does just have heart disease and renal failure so that will make the heart disease a little trickier to treat. She thinks that Millie has had heart failure for a whi...

Re: 18yr old just been diagnosed with heart failure. What to

Thank you. The vet called this morning and said that her breathing is much better and that she can come home! The tablets will be small enough to put in her food and they're going to give her blood tests to work out what's going on and then we can medicate from there. I think that because she's brig...

Re: 18yr old just been diagnosed with heart failure. What to

Hello Thanks for your replies - I'm not sure if it comes in any other form, I'll ask the vet tomorrow. The vet has just called and said that there is fluid around her lungs that they are now medicating. It's not bad enough for them to have to go in and drain the fluid so I guess that's good news. Sh...

18yr old just been diagnosed with heart failure. What to do?

Hello My lovely Millie has been rushed to the vets today with rapid and noisy breathing. The vet has said that heart failure is at the top of her list and explained we can medicate if she finds that it's not too bad today. It does mean that Millie will need a tablet everyday for the rest of her life...
