*UPDATE*
He has been to the vet. Labs are normal, which is startling.
He's about half his normal weight. There was a mass in his belly in
the x-rays, but the vet said it didn't look like a tumor, or feel
like one. Were gonna have a follow-up in a week to see if he has
passed the mass, because we could be dealing with a partial blockage
or severe constipation. She agrees that he seems to have had a
really nasty GI issue that is possibly resolving now. So we'll see.
If the mass hasn't cleared by next week, he'll have to get an
ultrasound. We're not quite to goal yet. But donations saved us
today. We'll keep all of you posted. If we need an update on the vet
expenses we will let you all know. Hopefully he's doing much
better.
There's a pic of him at the Vet's office, the most
energy we've seen him with in weeks. He's down to half his normal
weight, 13-16 pounds, he's not 7.6 pounds. It's painful to see him
so thin, but he's still a gorgeous boy.
*Original post*
Aries is a gorgeous, and previously very
healthy house panther. He is a papered anxiety support pet. He is a
lovely affectionate boy, and until recently at 12 years old, very
active and vibrant. But he's been sick, and we just plain cannot
afford the vet bills. He has improved some, but not fast enough, and
we're still so worried. Here's the details, We are fairly certain it's
a GI issue of some kind. He's been throwing up, and lost a lot of
weight. He is eating and drinking and using the cat box. He is NOT
lethargic, but he is also not eating enough to put weight back on. We
can give more details upon request. The ONLY thing keeping us from
taking him to the vet is money. We're doing all we can to help, but he
does need seeing to. We will to take him in If we can afford it,
otherwise that would have happened over a month ago. His mom is one of
my dearest friends, who lives with us, and is on a fixed income. None
of us are making enough on our end to help either. We're all
struggling, and WE ALL love him. I set the goal high, because we're
not sure what we're facing, and we would rather have a reserve on hand
for him just in case. If you can help, we really want to get this
wonderful boy feeling better. Anyone who can assist would be such
heroes to us. I hate doing this, I never ask for money help publicly.
Til now.
