Lucy says a big thankyou to her friends who sent her lovely messages and rosettes after her Vet visit last week and I'm sorry it's taken so long to thank you all. I'm sure the purring helped her a lot!!

Thankyou to:-
Orkney, Arrow, Tara, Zephyr and Bunty for the lovely tulips.
Wanda, Norman and family for the heart.
Edgar, Emily Felicity, Gabby and Lucinda for the Power of the paw.
Sassy for the Power of the paw.

Vet visit 04 May
--------------------
Terry was pleased how she'd responded to the anti-inflammatory injection for the hepatitis and could really see the difference in her from a week ago. Even in such a short time her coat is shinier and her appetite has improved. She just wouldn't eat any of the food I tried with the Samylin in (supplement to help her liver)! I tried tuna, sardines, mackerel, chicken and all kinds of the tiny Goourmet Gold tins, but to no avail. He gave me some tablets to crush and mix in her food instead - they don't have all the ingredients in Samylin but have the most important one!

To my delight, she ate all the food last night with her meds in. I was so pleased and couldn't believe it!

She's not out of the woods yet and I have to check the whites of her eyes often to make sure they're not yellowing and take her back immediately if she seems unwell again before her next appointment on 01 June. We're hoping that by then she's put back some of the weight on she lost so suddenly.

I'm hoping and praying that the lump in her neck is a cyst and not cancer. Without a biopsy we can't be sure and at the moment she's not well enough for surgery.

Please keep the purrs going for my Lucy - she's such a sweetheart and loved so much.

Thankyou from Lucy's mum.
