Thank you everyone

I think he may have had another mini attack late this afternoon but afraid I missed it. There was fur all over the floor and things had been moved by the front door

It took a couple of days for the marbocyl to work last time, so am trying to keep an eye on him.

He is being very affectionate but he is scared after an attack, I can see it in his eyes and face

I just hope the meds work as well as last time.

Gill, am sending big hugs and gentle cuddles for Fabulous Frantaman. I know you'll be worrying terribly about him, and hoping all goes well with the injections.

Sorry to hear that Franta is poorly again Gill

Thankfully you have some idea this time and can treat him accordingly and hopefully he is much better soon

Good luck with the injections, hope Franta doesn't have any more attacks

Aw. Sorry he's had another attack but I'm sure the Marbocyl will sort him out. Good luck with the injections

Bazsmum · « **Reply #745 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:12:09 PM »

Aw bless him!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #744 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:11:09 PM »

Not at the vets LOL but he was very good with me last time and didnt even flinch.......their skin is so tough though and it takes a controlled push to get the needle in.

Actually he was very good today, mainly cos he was exhausted from the attack this morning and not much sleep. He didnt even meow in the car!

Bazsmum · « **Reply #743 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:06:12 PM »

I hate needles, never mind having to administer them!

Is Franta a good patient Gill?

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #742 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:03:48 PM »

Me too cos now have another 6 injections to give him, the first will be the hardest cos havent done any since Feb. Luckily only one a day starting tomorrow cos he has had first one today from vet.

Bazsmum · « **Reply #741 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:01:02 PM »

Aw sorry he had another attack! Topping up the cuddles for our brave man Franta...and but of course

for you!

Hope the meds sort him out!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #740 on:** July 03, 2009, 11:57:58 AM »

Thank you Clare and I will....he loves his strokes and cuddles

clarenmax · « **Reply #739 on:** July 03, 2009, 11:49:27 AM »

Fingers and toes crossed for you hun

everyone for your messages.

Very restless night I had and Franta got onto the bed for cuddles at some point , then wanted stroking down the side of the bed.....sigh.

Just back from vet cos Franta had another small attack just before 0800.

He has been given a short acting steroid injection to reduce any inflamation he may have in his brain and the first of a course of abs, marbocyl, which was what he had before.

We have decided this is the best course of action for him but if it doesnt work then we will have to think again.

The vet said he is looking fantastic and all his vital signs are normal, so hoping we have caught it early this time and maybe no more attacks

CarolM (Wendolene) · « **Reply #737 on:** July 03, 2009, 11:38:19 AM »

Sending lots of positive vibes for you and Franta

and hoping no news is good news

Bazsmum · « **Reply #736 on:** July 03, 2009, 11:27:12 AM »

Hoping that all is good at your end Gilly! Thinking of you and Franta!

Poor Franta, how is he this morning?

clarenmax · « **Reply #734 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:51:11 AM »

Awwww, poor Franta, I hope he's much better this morning with no more attacks during the night?

Poor Franta - I hope he is better this morning

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #732 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:17:51 AM »

Hope you had a peaceful night Gill. Don't forget to sort out with vet what happens if Franta needs a vet over weekend Gill.

to you both. What about restarting the AB injections? Is it possible that old infection could have returned? Am just trying to think of questions for vet. So wish you had MRI facility closer to you.

bonnielass · « **Reply #731 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:07:06 AM »

Just caught up again, i do hope this is a one off and that Franta is soon feeling better,sending lots of positive vibes from me and my lot

maryas · « **Reply #730 on:** July 03, 2009, 07:54:35 AM »

Just read this before going to work Gill - we can't use internet at work anymore either but I'll look in my lunch break to see if there is any news.

My heart goes out to you as you know I feel like Franta is my own with all the banter we have goin with him and Bonnie.

Thought and prayers are going mad now.

COME ON FRANTA YOU CAN PULL THROUGH IT GUY.

Mary and Bonnie xxxx

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #729 on:** July 03, 2009, 07:37:44 AM »

how is he this morning Gill? Hopefully much better and wont need to see the vets.

bunglycat · « **Reply #728 on:** July 02, 2009, 23:21:52 PM »

Poor Franta and poor you - really hope this is a one off and doesn''t happen again.
Lots of vibes for him to be okay from us here in Lincoln.
Lots of gentle furry cuddles for Franta and

to you too .
Hope the others are all ok too.

Thank you all

just so worried and can see he is so scared. Am checking on him about every 15 mins, and he was in same place I left him but sitting up this time, so am hoping that is good.

Wibblechick · « **Reply #725 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:40:09 PM »

He is crouched down by the bed poor boy and is very scared.

Oh poor chap, I'll keep everything crossed its just a one off.

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #723 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:33:24 PM »

Sorry Gill. Just so shocked. I now see you already have some diazapam

Bazsmum · « **Reply #722 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:32:37 PM »

Oh how awful for you both!

Sending positive vibes that this was just a one off~~~~~~Good Luck Gilly and Franta man, am thinking of you both!

Franta has had another attack tonight about 3/4 of hour ago. The vet is doing emergency surgery at present and am waiting for her to ring back.

Oh Gill I thought you meant she was doing surgery on our lovely boy

You know he is being sent the very best of good vibes from everyone here

Be positive. You at least know what to look for and that, if at all possible, stay calm to keep him calm. Is it possible for you to get vet to prescribe same treatment without a visit?

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #720 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:29:37 PM »

Me too

He is crouched down by the bed poor boy and is very scared.

The vet has said to check up on him from a distance and not fuss him and we are keeping fingers crossed that this is just a one off but this is how it started before. Apparently his notes have a NB to get him to an MRI if he has any more attacks but that worries me cos they do not know Franta very well.

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #719 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:26:35 PM »

Oh no Gill, I hope he doesnt have another attack - is he ok at the moment?

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #718 on:** July 02, 2009, 22:22:22 PM »

Franta has had another attack tonight about 3/4 of hour ago. The vet is doing emergency surgery at present and am waiting for her to ring back.

She has just rang and we are hoping its a one off but if he has another I will need to drive him to Swansea after trying to administer the diazapam that I have for him.

Please keep fingers crossed for Franta and that this was just a hickcup and wont happen again.

He was absolutely fine aboout 3 hours ago.

Maddiesmum · « **Reply #717 on:** March 09, 2009, 13:38:44 PM »

Absolutely brilliant news, you must be so relieved.

Bazsmum · « **Reply #716 on:** March 09, 2009, 02:59:32 AM »

What a wonderful outcome!

Well done Franta the Man.....a big wave of relief for you also Gilly!
