Title: Lacie looking good! - RIP Lacie x
Post by: Gillian Harvey on September 05, 2011, 17:58:57 PM

She seems to be doing well at the moment. Steroids are every other day now for the time being, appetite is good and she's put on weight.  :)

Gillian it must be so very hard for you looking back over the years at how many little darlings have gone to the Bridge.  The one good thing is that you've given them all a fantastic life no matter how long it was and to think how Lacie looked when she came to you and what you've done for her it's so nice to see her so well. :Luv2:  :hug:

Mary

Yes it is hard, wish they were all still here  :(

She did have a bit of a 'choppy' hairstyle when she first arrived...... ;)

Post by: sharonbee on December 31, 2011, 19:34:12 PM

Lacie looked beautiful in the pic Gillian, sorry she isn't doing too well now.

What are the steroids for? We took in an adult Exotic and he has steroid injections every few months to open up his airways as he has a bad respiritory problem and is brachycephalic due to being bred too ultra.

Keeping everything crossed for lacie and hope she gets better soon.

She has lymphoma  :( - advanced. Steroids (tablets) had been helping, but sadly now I don't think they are doing anything for her.

I will be taking her to the vets as soon as I can get an appointment on Tues, as I think it is time to let her go  :'(

Post by: Gillian Harvey on January 04, 2012, 13:52:15 PM

I took her this morning  :( There was an appointment yesterday evening, but it was such a horrible wet, cold and windy evening and I didnt want to take her out in that, and I'm glad she had a nice last evening when she actually ate almost half a tin of Encore, and then sat in front of the fire with all the others, and slept on my bed all night. Nearly cancelled today's appointment on the basis of that, but knew it was time really and she wasnt going to get better  :(  It was very peaceful at the end.

Nothing to thank us for Gillian.

We should be thanking you really cos I know I could never hae taken in so many ill cats and looked after them and paid all the vet bills and given them a fantastic life.  Plus all the foster cats  :hug:

I'm just so glad there are people like you and others on here that have loads of cats that are not as healthy as they could be and you still take them on.
