He's home!

Update posted by Jessica B

Lestat is home! the urinalysis showed a bunch of junk in his urine...but no crystals! So he is now on two antibiotics, one pill and one liquid for two weeks. I have to take him back in in about two weeks and then we are going to recheck his blood work and see how he is looking. She said that the weight loss could be from the infection since we don't know for sure how long he has had it. He gets to start eating more wet food every day which should help him start putting some weight back on. I'm def. happy with this news....although I do know that there is still the possibility that he could be losing protein in the urine (basically it leaks out and that affects muscle/weight loss) so that's another test that could still be checked if there isn't much change in the next couple of weeks, and a possibility of a type of cancer since it doesn't show up on tests but the vet said he doesn't have any abnormal lumps or bumps and his guts all felt normal so fingers crossed that maybe we found what was going on and this will get better for him! I missed my baby, it's crazy how much animals become like our very own children. Again thank you all so much for all of the help...it's very very hard for me to ask for help and I appreciate each and every one of you who shared the link to Lestats donation campaign and each of you who donated! I am leaving the donation page up for a little while to still see if I can reach that $300 goal (which that will help cover the rest of the costs of the recheck of bloodwork and any other antibiotics and food that he will need, and it also covers the fees from paypal and the site that they charge) Now it's time to go curl up with Lestat! I will keep you all updated with his progress!
