after three days in the veterinary hospital with IV fluids going non stop, my sammy is back home.
this is the first time she has ever spent the night in the hospital.
but all the fluids rehydrated her, and flushed out her kidneys, and brought her blood levels back down into the normal range.
thank you Jesus!
since she has been home, she has done very well. she has a good appetite, drinks water on her own, uses the litter box, and grooms herself.
its the little things in life….
few things have been as important to me on a personal level as this little gray kitty. funny how that works sometimes.
she goes back for another blood test wednesday, to see how well her kidneys are doing on their own. i expect to see good results.
another room 
It seems we have very similar commitments to the little people in our lives. I always rescue or adopt mine, and have never regretted any expense except the euthanasia for Boomer. The little guys seem to know that when they are taken in, it is a promise for life. The part that hurts is that their lifespans are shorter than ours. I suppose I’m glad that we know it and they don’t. It would be nice not to worry about anything worse than having one’s claws trimmed. Sammy will be in my thoughts and whatever it is that I do that passes for prayer.
Peace, Doc
so pleased to hear good news on Sammy ….our God tells us to pray for everthing ,and that includes our beloved pets :-)

You forgot the most important dragon/lizard of all. Me
Great dragon pics. Enjoy the week. LK;-)

Tuea..has your blog been shut down? Hmm..me thinks it is the end of culture. You must me sore after all that work you put into it.
Life must go on. Don’t jump whatever you do. Atfer all, tomorrow is another day.

Ahh, the life of a cat, its tough. Your sammy looks a lot like our cat Fatty!! Our cat went through the same thing, iv fluids. It must be what they do when they get sick. They dont want to drink or take care of themselves.
Your friends list doesn’t even show up. Something really wrong is going on around here. I’m out of order, MSN is out of order.
The song that I’m thinking about is called Celebration of the Lizardby the Doors. If it’s differant, let me know. LK;-)
Yes, tis I that has been messing with the friends list and other stuff.

I’ve been told that my 16-17 year old cat, who has been left in my parents care, is really starting to show his age. At what point is it the right moment to end his misery? He obviously can’t go on forever—but it would be really sad to lose him, even though I don’t get to viisit that often. :(
