Eegie's having many problems - going to vet to test potassium levels - but BG read HI twice on 2 strips. did 1.75 (instead of 1.5), but see what vet has to say in 1 hour...

He's not walking, hence the potassium test.
 
Please keep us updated on how he's doing when you can.

My guess is that Eegie's numbers are up due to the Nutrical. The first ingredient in it is corn syrup. Other ingredients include malt syrup and cane molasses. You're kitty is on a sugar high! That said, for a cat that's been in blue numbers, I'd be thinking in terms of an infection. Hopefully, the vet will test for a UTI (by a cystocentesis and a culture and sensitivity test) and do some blood work.

Eegie's BG wasn't the biggest problem - it is a combination of many things, his kidneys BUN is WAY too high, his breathing is labored, he's shutting down. Any prophylactic treatment will maybe give him another 24 hours. Right now, he's relaxing at home, being loved and hugged (but he doesn't even feel well enough for hugs - and this is my snuggle boy). This afternoon, he will be sent ahead held in my arms. My heart is breaking.

I am so sorry that Eegie has reached the time when it is the kindest act of love to let him cross the bridge. You have tried so hard and done everything possible to make Eegie's time comfortable. Sending my prayers and tears with hope that Eegie and you can share some good time together before he leaves. No more pain for Eegie but lots for you. May your happy memories of Eegie and your time together give you strength and peace to deal with this sad sad time.

(((Stephanie))) I am so sorry that it is Eegie's time. :bighug: You both have fought the hard fight and he knows how much you love him. Tonight I'll look to the sky for the bright new star that is Eegie's spirit.
 
So sorry Stephanie :bighug:

You've done everything you could to keep Eegie healthy and happy and now you're making the most loving decision you can and letting him go.
you always said I was your angel...now it's time to get my wings.jpg


Fly Free sweet Eegie, and land softly....there are many at the Bridge to welcome you cat_wings>o
 
Light for safe passage for Eegie. Travel swift and strong to your next adventure, dear boy. The night sky will hold another angel star.

Prayers Stephanie for healing and comfort for you. The last act of selflish devotion, sending our loved ones on hurts so much....peace for your wounded heart.

My heart goes out to you at this difficult time. You've put what's best for Edgie before your own needs. This is a measure of true love. You have demonstrated how very much he is loved. You did what was best for Eegie,, and he will remember you foreverl
 
oh damn. SO very sorry for Eegie and you Stephanie. You fought the good fight for your darling boy. Fly free of pain and suffering sweet Eegie. Many will welcome and friend you at the bridge. Hugs to you Stephanie and family.
 
You have my deepest sympathies.....

Dear sweet Eegie....fly free my friend and have a safe journey to the Rainbow Bridge.....before you start running and playing with the other kitties, don't forget to send momma a sign that you made it safely there!
 
I've been reading all your kind words and thoughts for hours. I just haven't been able to respond - to really let myself think about it.

Thank you all - thank you FDMB - thanks so so many individuals for your help and support. I do know I did the right thing. Now, I just have to learn how to live with it. That Eegie shaped hole in my heart won't fill quickly - and probably never fully at all. He was extraordinary, and although my heart hurts, I'm very grateful to you all. Thank you.
 
Dear Stephanie,
Eegie has joined all of our GAs at the Bridge and is in "good paws". He's flying free and sending you his love and gratitude for helping to free him from his failing body. We are so sorry for your loss.

In deepest sympathy,
Ella & Edward, Rusty, and Stu(GA)
 
stephanie, i'm so sorry to see this. Your Eegie shaped hole can't be filled by anyone else, but eventually it will have more smiles than tears in it.

He had so many health issues and you've done a wonderful job of taking care of him.

Fly free little one, knowing how loved you are.

Thank you. I don't have an empty house - I have 2 other cats, and 2 dogs - yet it feels so empty. He wasn't outside my shower watching me today, ready to lap up the water. He's not jumping onto my lap when I'm on the couch...

I've had a LOT of losses in my life - parents, other pets, friends, other family... There's a special pain in this one.

I'm going to go through some of my meds - I'll have some for others that may need them. I just can't look at them at this time, yet...
