Really hoping Grace picks up and has more time to be happy and loved

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #124 on:** August 19, 2009, 22:41:38 PM »

I hope she improves too Teresa

Come on Grace you can do it

Fingers crossed she picks up

Grace and I have 2 things in common, we are both skin and bone and both fighters.

JackSpratt · « **Reply #121 on:** August 19, 2009, 18:09:50 PM »

Oh Teresa, what sad news. I do hope Grace fights on, but I know if she feels it's time you'll let her go with dignity. Sue, she does have a Grizabella look about her.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #120 on:** August 19, 2009, 17:58:01 PM »

One thing's for sure, thanks to the care she's had from you, her end won't be filled with despair, as it might so easily have been. When I look at her picture, I think of Grizabella from Cats.

Memory, all alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
It was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again

I'm sorry to hear this but know you'll do whatever is right for Grace.

Janeyk · « **Reply #118 on:** August 19, 2009, 17:33:31 PM »

aww Teresa I'm so sorry to read this. I think the route you have taken is the best and she is very lucky to have found you because if anyone can help you can, lets just hope that the steroid helps too

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #117 on:** August 19, 2009, 17:03:55 PM »

A quick update on Grace who has not been doing so well the last few days:
Took her to see Andy vet this morning as she had refused all food for over 24hours and hasnt washed herself since she arrived,shes been drinking huge amounts of water though. Andy has told me to stop the thyroid meds (vidalta) for a few days (fortunately I stopped it yesterday) he has given her a steroid and vitamin injection in a bid to get her to eat even though it will not do her thyroid any good,if we can get her appetite back by Friday she will go onto Felimazole instead of vidalta,if no improvement by Friday we must let her go. He said he feels she was just too far gone when we got her and was at the stage where people with owned cats brought them in for PTS, however if we can get her eating we may buy her a few more weeks. Bought her a cooked chicken and she has eaten a little of that so we remain hopeful that this gorgeous lady will enjoy her bed for a while longer.

Thank you Teresa!

She looks comfortable and contempative. That's a very cosy looking bed indeed.

I am glad her tum has settled, bless her.

Kay and Penny · « **Reply #104 on:** August 13, 2009, 22:52:29 PM »

I love this thread for the title alone - 'Blind Kitten in Trouble' indeed

'Old Girl Doing Very Nicely' would be much more appropriate

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #103 on:** August 13, 2009, 22:33:38 PM »

Only just cught up on the latest news on Grace

So pleased she is now doing proper poos and is obviously comfy in her new home. Teresa you are a a true superstar

Janeyk · « **Reply #102 on:** August 13, 2009, 22:20:27 PM »

Never read 'footprints' before, it is very comforting, I'll remember that thanks

JackSpratt · « **Reply #101 on:** August 13, 2009, 22:02:37 PM »

Not especially religious myself either, but love the prayer of serenity.

Teresa, you are much more than "an old bag." What you do is exceptional and you should never underestimate how much of a difference you're making in this world.

You are one of the rescue members on this site I have a massive respect for.

Glad Grace is improving.

Ruth the general message is that God is always here for us and helps us through our lowest times whether we realise it or not; I hadnt thought about that piece for a while and believe me it has helped

OMG! I feel really embarrased now as I thought it was "Footprints" then googled to have a read and it said steps and prints.... Whatever the name T as long as I know that you know the meaning is all I wanna say!

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #96 on:** August 13, 2009, 21:30:27 PM »

I have that piece and hold it dear to my heart, so very true

Bazsmum · « **Reply #95 on:** August 13, 2009, 21:20:03 PM »

I am in the Big Bang Theory gang, My heart tells me there is a god but my brain just wont go there!

I do have a soft spot for a lovely parable though and I send it to you T!

I will admit that my faith is at a very low ebb at present,think its only the cats keeping my belief going at present.

As an atheist, one thing I can't help you with is that.

I`m just an ordinary old bag who often happens to be in the right place at the right time.

Yep, I reckon so

but we know who stands at the sharp end

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #92 on:** August 13, 2009, 21:06:22 PM »

Sorry Sue and Christine you are both wrong, I`m just an ordinary old bag who often happens to be in the right place at the right time.

I found myself thinking over and over again, thank God Grace found somewhere.

Don't thank anything supernatural, thank Teresa.

I originally wrote something much harsher, but out of respect to Teresa I have restrained myself. It is indeed more than good that Grace is with Teresa

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #88 on:** August 13, 2009, 18:45:42 PM »

Just been reading Lesley's thread about the two golden oldies she was looking for a home for, and I found myself thinking over and over again, thank God Grace found somewhere. It's not possible to help them all, but sending Grace an extra special snuzzle from me and Pad.

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #87 on:** August 13, 2009, 14:45:02 PM »

Good to hear the meds are kicking in

- do the vets have any idea now what was causing the yukky poos T?
