I haven't been to the blogs this past week. I'm so sorry so much is happening to Anya. How is she doing now? Is the medicine doing it's job? Oh my, I know you must be beside yourself as I would be too. If you need to talk, you know you can email me. I'm praying for Anya. You try to take care of yourself too. I know it's hard but you need to stay healthy for her.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387389557243960084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-1903361505619012022010-01-25T16:14:06.716-08:002010-01-25T16:14:06.716-08:00Oh Wendy, I've missed your posts and am happy ...Oh Wendy, I've missed your posts and am happy to see you back but so sorry to hear about Anya.

She had a blood transfusion and was better for a few months but ultimately there was no cure. We chose not to continue transfusions as it would help less and less over time and she hated it so much.

E-care can get very pricey. I was going to post about Mystery today. Her seizure on Monday left her weak and unable to walk for a long time. They think she has anaplasmosi.. a tick disease. I am so glad to hear that Anya is doing better and I hope she continues to improve. I am waiting for blood results on Mystery, but until then I'm keeping a close eye on her.

I know some people probably think I'm crazy for going to the lengths I have for Anya. And maybe I am. I just know that I want to do what I can to try and relieve her suffering and give her as best a life as she can have.<br /><br />She's doing better today. Eating lots and even playing and demanding attention. My heart is overflowing with joy. At the same time, however, I'm cautious in my optimism. We're still waiting for more of the test results to come in and it's still too early to tell whether the medications are working. I'm hopeful though. And I am grateful for your support and encouragement (and tips about how to give Anya her medication!).Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-40494643532405709572010-01-20T13:56:34.816-08:002010-01-20T13:56:34.816-08:00I'm still praying for your beautiful little ki...I'm still praying for your beautiful little kitty, Anya.

I had to think of devious ways to get them in him. He was such a large cat that I couldn't force the pills down his throat. I had two other cats who had to take small pills.
