		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Mom and Dad have opened their hearts and home to a foster kitty, whom they will adopt permanently if all goes well.  His name is Sebastian (Mom picked out his name.)  Please welcome him to Catster as you have all the other members of my family. :)

Sebastian hails from San Jose, California.  He is a sweet outdoor kitty who befriended a friend of my parents, about six months ago.  She already has a kitty, and could not take him.  She was concerned about what would happen to Sebastian, being an outdoor kitty and all, so she asked for Mom's help to place him.  He is so sweet and loving that she was looking for an indoor living situation for him.

Mom volunteers for a cat sanctuary and tried to help find a placement for Sebastian in the San Jose area, but all the no-kill rescues in the area were full up, or had long waiting lists.  Then, Mom's friend found out she might be leaving California very soon.  This added to the urgency for Sebastian to be placed.  That is when Mom asked Dad if they could foster-to-adopt Sebastian.  Dad right away said yes!

Their friend brought Sebastian up to Placerville on Wednesday.  He is now staying in the back hall and bedroom area.  He has plenty of room. :)  He is an absolute sweetie!  He loves attention 24x7.

For health and safety reasons, Dad and Mom put up a tall pet gate with overlapping cardboard panels on it, to separate him from my siblings.  He has already been to the vet in San Jose and was given his first round of vaccines, including a FeLV vaccine, and he was given a FeLV/FIV test.  He tested negative for FeLV and FIV.  He will be getting his second round of boosters this Wednesday, and will have a fecal exam on Thursday.  

Once he gets a clean bill of health, he will be slowly introduced to Pippin, Marmelade and Midge.  Mom and Dad will remove the cardboard panels from the pet gate first, so they can see each other, then after a day or two, Sebastian will meet my siblings up close and in purrson!  This is where our Catster friends come in.  Please purr that Pippin, Marmelade, Midge and Sebastian, tolerate each other!  Mom and Dad aren't asking for miracles, but they hope they will at least get along. :)

I'll keep you posted!


Love and purrs,

Tigger Angel Baby]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

My mom could use purrs.  She is really missing me terribly.  It was a month on the 6th since I journeyed to the Bridge.  The shock has worn off and it's all so final now.  When she looks at my pictures she cries.  She was doing somewhat better for a time, but the month anniversary just brought it all to the surface.

To make matters worse, one of the baby yarrow plants that Zoe Sunshine's mom had sent is not doing well.  They both were planted in back of my and Bob's graves.  Mom wanted them to be a pink backdrop since they can grow up to three feet high and two feet across.  She read up on how to care for them as far as how much to water, etc., but one just isn't making it. :(

Love,

Tigger Angel Baby]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi my Friends,

As you know, I journeyed to the Rainbow Bridge on September 6th after I lost my fight with CRF.  I can't adequately describe how much it has meant to have your love and purrs during my illness these past two and a half years.  

Now, my mom could use some purrs.  You see, she's having a very hard time working through the grief over losing me after nearly 20 years together.  We have so many wonderful memories, but she's not able to recall those positive memories as much as the painful ones of my disease process and my last two days on earth.  She just keeps reliving it all and wonders if there was something she did wrong or could have done better.

My mom is having some physical symptoms to go along with her emotional pain.  Her migraines reappeared after a lengthy absence, she's irritated with work (more so than usual), and she's all out of sorts.  Any purrs you can spare would so much be appreciated.

Love always,

Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

My sweet boy Tigger made his journey to Rainbow Bridge this afternoon.  He took a turn for the worse two days ago; he was no longer eating and drinking as of last night, nor was he urinating or defecating.  We took him to the vet today and his vet said that his systems were shutting down.  The toxins from his Chronic Renal Failure were building up and his little body couldn't take anymore.  It's possible he also had lymphoma instead of IBD as the Prednisone wasn't helping the inflammation in his bowel; she said it felt thicker today than a week ago.

Thank you so much for caring about my boy through his CRF illness these past two and a half years.  I really appreciate your supportive emails, p-mails and pressies for his page.  I'll never forget your kindness.

Love,
Gina and Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I have good news and bad news: the good news is my appetite is back and the diarrhea has stopped on its own.  However, my blood test results are not good.  My CRF is worsening, which is part of the disease process.  My thyroid function is low.  

Mom is going to talk to my vet in person on Wednesday, as that is the day she is back in the office.  Mom needs to talk to my vet about my thickened intestinal wall.

That's where we are right now.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I went to see my vet today because I had a bout of diarrhea Thursday and I was off my food Thursday night.  My appetite returned to normal Friday (yesterday), but Mom still wanted me to be seen.  

My vet examined me and said that she felt a thickening of my intestinal wall.  Because of that and my symptoms, she thinks I may have IBD.  They took some of my blood and sent it out for analysis.  We will hear back on the results tomorrow.

I could use some purrs and so could Mom. 

Love,

Tigger


P.S. My mom is emailing with Finney's mom right now because she has a website called IBD kitties and knows a ton about IBD.  I just wanted to mention that my gastrointestinal symptoms are chronic due to my CRF, so that is why my vet is leaning toward IBD as the cause of the thickening of my intestinal wall.  I'm getting a full blood panel done and more investigation into it.  I'll keep you posted.

Purrs and headbonks!]]></content:encoded>

"Who are you really?"

I don't play hide and seek anymore, it used to be our cat tree.

I love snuggling inside my mom's robe in the Winter time.

8) What is your favorite make believe monster?

Katzilla! MOL

I get sub-q fluids because of my CRF.

In one package was the sweetest St. Paddy's day Boutique Mouse and in the other a colorful patterned catnip bed!  Thank you to my guardian angel Alfie for the precious mousie!  And thank you to my nephew and niece, Zack and Zoey, for the cool catnip bed!

Mom loves the <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site  onClick="alert(\'Catster Alert: You are about to visit an outside link that was submitted by this pet owner.\');" href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69078707/erin-the-irish-catnip-boutique-mouse">Erin the Irish Catnip Boutique Mouse</a> so much she asked for permission from the nice purrson who made it to post a picture on my Catster page.  Also, there is a video of me on my awesome new bed, on my Catster page.

My vet isn't too worried about the BUN as it can fluctuate a bit with diet, etc.  She says I appear stable for now.  As I mentioned before, we will try the fluids three times a week unless I need them more often.  My next regular checkup will be in April. :)

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I had a check up on Saturday, and the vet tech drew some blood.  My vet is going to call with the results and I will let you know what they are.  One thing that isn't so good is that I have to have fluids more often now...three times a week instead of twice a week.  

I was somewhat dehydrated on Saturday, my last fluid session having been the Wednesday before.  My vet thinks three days a week will be sufficient.  Mom is going to take me back in for a re-check in two weeks to see if my new fluid schedule is working.

On a more positive note, my weight is pretty stable and my appetite is good.  I haven't had any major vomiting from the CRF.  Also, I seem happy and I am my affectionate self. :)

Love and purrs,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!  Thank you for remembering us with rosies and special gifts on our pages.  It means so much to be here this Christmas.  We are still taking it one day at a time with my CRF.  I'm doing pretty well, still enjoying my food and lovies and looking forward to some turkey today! :)

May your holidays be filled with joy and happiness!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Fall has finally arrived!  Yea!  The temperature has dropped and it's time for cuddling together in front of the gas stove.  Before we know it, Santa Paws will be on his way!  I can't wait!

I wanted to send a thank you out to <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.catster.com/cats/283038" target="_blank"><b>Samoa's</b></a> Mom for making me a special order at <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site  onClick="alert(\'Catster Alert: You are about to visit an outside link that was submitted by this pet owner.\');" href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/thecatintheclover?ref=top_trail" target="_blank"><b>Cat in the Clover</b></a>.  She created a lovely pet heating pad cover per my mom's request.  You can see a picture of it on my page (third photo down).  My mom bought me a pet heating pad which, unlike human heating pads, does not get too hot to the touch and is safe for furry felines like me. :)

Love,

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Two more days until we get an infusion of Zealies.  Two more days!  We keep wanting to give gifties to our friends to celebrate important occasions like birthdays, etc. but we can't.  We are having Zealie Withdrawls! MOL

On a more pawsitive note, I had a great checkup on Saturday!  My Creatinine is down from 3.2 to 2.8 and my BUN is down from 57 to 49.  My BUN is lower than it has ever been since I was diagnosed with CRF in February of 2010.  So, we are all celebrating! :D  My vet also changed the frequency of my Famotidine to twice a day and my Cerenia to every two days, to help with my acid stomach and nausea (which cause vomiting.)  So far so good, the meds are working!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Today is our six year anniversary on Catster!  I have so many special friends to remember and to thank.  I do want to mention a few of the long-time friends we still have, angels and earth kitties, and some new friends too.  

Angels Rocky Ann, Louis LeBeau, Mercy, Hazel Lucy, Buddie, Calvin-Knead On, Balty, and Muffin, I sure do miss you all.  You are forever in my heart.  We are still friends with some of the very first kitties to extend their paw in friendship to us: Gimli, Muffy, Sally - Sweet Angel, Flinders, Bruce the Boss, Autumn (in my heart 4ever), Gato, Chiefy, Kassie of the Rainbow Bridge, Snipper, Mitzi Treasure Bird, Karma Kitty, Lisa, Marina and more...  We've also made special new friends: Samoa, Finney, Simone, Alfie - The Lovebug Angel, Norman, tux (the doggie), WeBeesSiamese, Queen Talullah...I could go on, but I guess I'll stop with those names or this diary entry will be really really long. MOL :)

Finally, how can I adequately thank all those who supported my Mom during Taylor's illness and subsequent journey to the Bridge in 2010.  It was such a sad time, but the pain was eased because of your friendship.  Now, I face my own illness, and again, you are there for my mom.  Thank you.

My 19th birthday is coming up on October 1st.  My one wish is that some of my old friends would return to Catster this holiday season.  I wish very much to see them again.

With love,

Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Tigger's Mom here.  Tigger needs your prayers and purrs.  He has an urgent care appointment this morning at 11:40 with his vet.  I don't know if the combination of the CRF and the new developments with the Pancreatitis and IBD are just too much for him.  I put him on the scale at home last night and he has lost weight, which he cannot afford to do.  His appetite has tapered off over the past two days, and his bowel movements have stopped.  It might be simply a sign of constipation that can be treated, or it might just be that tired his little body is giving up.  I will let you know what I find out from his vet.

Thank you all for your continued love and support for my boy.  It means the world to me.

With love,
Tigger's Mom Gina]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I promised an update after my vet appointment yesterday.  My vet believes I may have IBD and an inflamed pancreas.  My intestinal wall is slightly thickened...she says that could be inflammation from the bad diarrhea bout I had.  I had an in-house blood panel done and my Amylase was high, which is what indicated the inflamed pancreas.  

Regarding my CRF, my Creatinine level has increased and my BUN level has decreased since my last blood panel.  My vet recommended increasing my fluid sessions to twice a week and she prescribed an anti-nausea medicine for me to take.  As of now I am taking a high blood pressure medicine, an antacid and now the anti-nausea medicine.

I want to thank Finney, Lacey and Angel Alex's mom for emailing with my mom about IBD.  (Their mom has the IBD Kitties website.)  My mom got some good information on foods and such that may help with IBD.

I will see my vet again in two weeks for a recheck.  I sure could use some healing purrs my friends.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Thank you so much for your purrs and good wishes!  They really helped me and my mom a lot.  Mom felt so alone last night...she was really scared about my sudden symptoms.  I was having trouble controlling the diarrhea and I went poop on the carpet in the bedroom. :(

Today, my diarrhea has subsided and no more vomiting.  Also, my appetite is normal.  Mom and Dad gave me fluids tonight and used a purrito wrap on me.  Since I was not able to fight the fluids process as much, it went a lot easier for all of us!

My appointment with the vet is for Sunday.  That is Mom's day off.  I will keep you posted as to what my vet says.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I'm not doing too well tonight.  I vomited up my dinner and I started having diarrhea.  Mom waited a bit and then gave me my dose of Pepcid and my Amlodipine.  She offered me food about an hour later and I ate 1/3 a can of my Fancy Feast and licked up all the gravy.  So, I'm not completely off my food.  

Dad and Mom are going to give me fluids tomorrow to try to offset the diarrhea.  And, Dad will call the vet for an appointment this weekend.  Thank goodness my vet's office is open on Saturday and Sunday for urgent care.  Mom hopes this isn't my CRF acting up, but it's possible.  Maybe I just have a virus?  Please purr!

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Here are some questions I saw in Blizzard's diary.  Any kitty can play!

1. Do you wear a collar? If so, what color?

2. What kind of food do you like?
Wet and dry

3. What are your favorite treats?
Temptations Turkey

4. Do you have a Valentine or a significant other?
No

5. Do you get table scraps
Yes, mainly chicken

6. What is your favorite toy
I love my catnip cigar that River's mom made.  Although not as much now that my siblings have slobbered on it!

7. When is your Birthday?
October 1, 1992

8. How many times a day do you eat?

Anyone who wants to play, consider yourself tagged!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I wanted to let you know that I let my parents administer my fluids at home yesterday for the first time.  They hung the bag on the back of the bedroom door and it made the fluids run smoother. :)  I only made a little fuss at the end of the treatment.  When it was over I got lots of loving and treats!  

I am so happy I didn't have to make the trek to the vet's office to get them done.  Please purr that I continue to let my parents give me the fluids at home.

Love,

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Letâ€™s find out how feisty you are! Copy and Paste the following diary, answer the questions below, add your score, and find out just how you rank on the Charlie Chocolate Paws Scales of Feistiness!

Charlie Chocolate Paws Scales of Feistiness

1. Do you make demands of your human? (If you answered Yes, give yourself 1 point.) Oh Yes. 1 point

2. If you make demands by doing any of the following, give yourself 1 point for each:
Persistent meowing 1
Biting 0
Smacky Paws 0
Relentless staring 1
Inappropriate behaviors (i.e., chewing on furniture, electrical cords, the oven) 1

3. If you make demands by doing any of the following, subtract 1 point:
Headbonking -1
Rubbing and purring on your human -1

4. If you let your humans rub your belly, subtract 2 points. -2

5. If you let anyone kiss your belly, subtract 5 points. -1

6. Are you Head of your Household (HOH)? (1 point if you consider yourself HOH) Yes! 1 point

7. If you have kitty (or other animal) siblings, do you:
(Give yourself 1 point for each Yes)
Eat their food? 0
Demand that they groom you? 0
Chase them? 0
Stare at them relentlessly? 0

8. Have you ever destroyed household items?
(1 point for each yes)

9. Please list any other crazy things you do that are ridiculously feisty (1 point per).
1 point- Open the treat jar with my teeth

Total Score (Place your score/name in your Diary Title):

My Score is 26 (times a million) of Feisty Points!

0-5 LAIDBACK LOVEBUG: You are a lovebug. You are sweet (and probably floofy) and you go with the flow. Nothing *really* bothers you and you like everybody. You donâ€™t even mind having a feisty sibling! You are a laidback lovebug!

6-15 COOL CAT: You are one cool cat. Smooth with a touch of mischief. Youâ€™ve got a bit of feisty in you and a bit of lovebug. Balance is good; you know how to have a good time by chasing and pouncing AND you know how to have a good time by being a mellow kitty and just hanging out. You are a cool cat!

16+ CRAZY FEISTY: You are a nut. A cheeky little monkey! Crazy, feisty, the talk of the town! Chasing kitty sisters, demanding your human feed you NOW, eating your momâ€™s favorite pair of shoes, turning on the oven with your freakishly strong teeth just because you can! The world is your playground and youâ€™ll try anything once (or twice). If your human can handle the shenanigans of a CRAZY FEISTY kitty cat, all is good! If your human cannot handle the shenanigans, wait until she leaves for work to get crazy and then blame it on your sistercat when your human comes home! You are crazy feisty (and a whole lot of mischievous fun!)!

Any kitty that wants to play is invited! Feel free to tag friends to find out just how feisty your friends are!]]></content:encoded>

Mom:  Mom works for a retail company. Mom's hobbies are computing and reading.  She likes to read romance, as well as science fiction novels. Mom is not much of a television watcher, but her favorite shows are House Hunters and Dr. Who.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I wanted to update you on my health.  As of Saturday, I gained back the 5 ounces I had lost the week prior.  Now if I can just stay on an upswing with my weight, that would be good.  My appetite is fine and I haven't been throwing up since I started taking the Famotidine (Pepcid).  Unfortunately, the other cats sometimes pick on me because I am ill and old.  But, Mom and Dad step in and put a stop to it. :)  I am doing well getting my fluids at the vet.  My attitude has improved about that. So, Mom and Dad want to try to give them to me at home.  I'll let you know how that goes.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I was tagged by Art Blakey to play the Lovebug Tag Game!  I'm to answer six questions and then tag other kitties to play:

1. Meow! Are you a noisy kitty or a quiet kitty?
I am a quiet kitty except when I am hungry, then I let mom and dad know I want food!

2. Litterbox! Cover your business or let some other kitty cover?
I cover!

3. Happy! Favorite Daily Routine?
My bed time routine is my favorite, which is when I get to sleep next to my mom.

4. Hiss! Least Favorite Routine?
Getting my nightly medicines!  I take two liquid medicines every night for my CRF and related high blood pressure.

5. Ding-Dong! What do you think about visitors to your house?
I love company!  I'm not afraid at all.

6. Friends! Do you like other animals?
No, I don't particularly.  I loved my sisfur Taylor; she was my litter mate.  But I don't like my other brofurs and sisfurs much, except in the Winter time when I let them sleep next to me to keep me warm! mol 

Everfurryone is welcome to play if you are reading this and you want to play, consider yourself tagged! Be sure to let your friends know they've been tagged by sending them a message or rosette!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

My vet said my heart murmur sounds better, though not completely gone.  I am feeling better being on fluids twice a week, though I certainly don't like the drive to the vet...a windy mountain road, 25 minutes each way.  Though, the treatments are keeping me alive and that is what is most important.

I want to mention that my friend <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.catster.com/cats/947817"><b>Xena Princess Warrior</b></a> is having surgery today for a breast lump.  Please purr for her!

My mom is making me tell you what I did this morning.  I christened my grandma's suitcase!   Mom has no idea what has gotten into me.  I've never done anything like that before.  All I can say is that she has two cats and I probably didn't like their smell and wanted to assert my dominance.  After all, I am 18 years old! MOL]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I had a little setback on Wednesday night, but I'm doing better now.  My mom took me into the vet yesterday and it seems I needed some fluids to help me feel better.  There is good news and bad news.  The good news is, my weight is up.  I gained some ounces since my checkup last month. :)  The bad news is that the vet heard a heart murmur.  This is something new, but she thinks/hopes it is due to my being somewhat dehydrated yesterday.  I go back to see her on Saturday for a follow-up.

The other good news is that my blood pressure is normal.  The change in the amount of medication has helped.  It was slightly elevated last month, so the vet upped my Amlodipine.

Mom and Dad are going to start taking me into the vet to get fluids administered, since I won't allow them to do it themselves at home.  The vet said that they won't charge for the administering of the fluids, just for supplies, so that helps out financially. :)

Purrs that the heart murmur is temporary would be most welcome.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I am back on my food today, no nausea and no vomiting. :) I also saw the vet.  Mom and she had a long conversation about my prognosis.  The plan is to see how the Pepcid works and then to start fluids twice a week.  Since I am unwilling to let my mom and dad administer them, they are going to take me to one of the vet techs at my vet's office to have it done.

Thank you for the purrs, gifties for my page and p-mails. Thank you Boxie Brown for posting my request for purrs on the purr thread.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I heard this song on my friend <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.catster.com/cats/805063"><b>Pixie's</b></a> page tonight.  It has been such a long time since I heard it.  It's so meaningful to me that I had to share the lyrics with you.

<b>Colors of the Wind</b>

You think you own whatever land you land on
Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name

You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You learn things you never knew
You never knew

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
Or ask the grinning bobcat why he grinned
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
And the heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle in a hoop that never ends

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
or let the eagle tell you where hes been
can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
can you paint with all the colors of the wind
can you paint with all the colors of the wind


How high does the sycamore grow
If you cut it down, then you'll never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper - skinned
We just sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to paint with all the colors of the wind

You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all colors of the wind.


Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

My vet was able to take my blood pressure today.  Yea!  Mom asked whether she had ever tried to take it on my tail (like several  Catsters recommended) and she said yes, but that I didn't like it.  So, she's sticking to my paw. :)  She had me sit on my mom's lap and Mom petted me while she took the readings in the exam room (instead of taking me in the back room by myself where I tend to get stressed.)  My blood pressure is a bit higher than normal, so the vet advised my mom to adjust my medicine up a little.  Otherwise, I'm doing fine!

Bob had his Kitty Weight Watchers weigh-in today.  He has lost 1 pound in three months.  The vet said he is doing well, that the weight loss is nice and slow, but that mom can reduce his intake a little more.  Poor Bob, he doesn't know it yet!

Love you all,

Tigger =^..^=]]></content:encoded>

I spit out the second piece, so Mom didn't offer me any more.  Then I lunged for the piece of cake in mom's hand, took another bite and promptly spit it out!  Mom was LOL  I seemed to enjoy this game and would have continued had Mom not taken the cake away and eaten the rest of the it. :)

Do any of you have interesting human foods you like to eat?

Many of you are aware that Shelly Sue and her mom need our prayers, purrs and help.  For those of you who do not know, Shelly Sue was diagnosed with asthma and she needs extensive and on-going vet treatment, treatment that her mom and dad simply cannot afford.  They are making sure that Shelly Sue gets to the vet this Friday with great personal sacrifice.  

There is a group on Facebook for Shelly Sue, which is helping to raise funds for her vet bill.  If your mom or dad would like to join, please p-mail me with your parent's facebook name and my mom will invite them to the Facebook group.  Please help Shelly Sue!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I wanted to let you know how I am doing. I've had no vomiting or nausea for the past six days. Yea! :)  I had my check up on this past Wedneday, and the vet did a complete blood panel, a physical exam, as well as "attempted" to take my blood pressure.  The vet techs were unable to get good blood pressure readings, as I was not cooperative.  I've still got catitude! MOL

The vet was happy to report that I have gained back the weight I lost this past year!  I am an ounce shy of 8 pounds.  That is pawsome news as it is so hard for CRF kitties to maintain their weight.

We got my blood panel results back from the vet on Thursday.  The vet left a message with Dad saying that the results were "good".  Mom and Dad were elated!  Mom will get a copy of the lab report at my next appointment which is this coming Saturday the 2nd (for a re-blood pressure check) as she wants to see the numbers for her own reference.  

My vet prescribed Pepcid for my nausea, and Mom had it compounded into a chicken-flavored liquid.  I won't let her pill me, so thank goodness there is a liquid alternative.  Mom has not used it yet, as I am not having nausea right now.  But, it's good to know it's there just in case.

Overall, I am doing well with the CRF.  My appetite is good and my weight is stable, and my numbers are good. We couldn't ask for more! :)

Sending love and purrs to my friends and thank yous for the p-mails, diary comments and presents!

Always,

Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

I want to thank the kind purrson(s) who sent me an anonymous rosette - the power of the paw.  I appreciate it so much!

Since I am writing in my diary, I want to give you an update.  I have a vet appointment this Wednesday so Mom can discuss my recent nausea and occasional vomiting with my vet.  I will also have my blood pressure and weight checked.  

I have not needed anti-nausea medicine before, but Mom hopes I can benefit from it.  As for the high blood pressure, it is a result of my CRF, and it is under control with daily medication.   

It has been over a year since I was diagnosed with CRF, and I have done well during that time, all things considered.  My quality of life has been good.  Mom and I are grateful for that.  There is no cure for CRF and we are just taking it one day at a time now.

I send my love to all my friends.  Please know you are all cherished!  I wanted to mention a few furs in particular: Angels Rocky Ann, Louis LeBeau, Mercy, Henry (my best furriend) and Hazel Lucy, I miss you.  Genny (The Generator) and Elise, my Niece Zoey and Nephew Zack, you are in my heart always.

Love and purrs,

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

Another snow storm is on its way, probably this Thursday.  Some weather bureaus have predicted a foot or more of snow for our elevation.  Last week we had about 7 inches of snow--you can see the pics on my page. :)  About three inches is still on the ground in shady spots.

Mom got stuck in the car in the snow storm last Thursday on her way home from work.  A kind lady with a four-wheel drive truck stopped for Mom and gave her a ride home.  Mom and Dad don't have a 4 wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle (yet) so it's pretty much impossible to drive in the snow with their cars.  By next Winter they hope to have a vehicle which can handle the snow when needed.

Hopefully we will have power and Internet like we did last week when it stormed.  If not, I'll be in touch when I can.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

It's Christmas eve and my mom and dad and us kitties (and my birdie brothers) are having a nice quiet evening at home.  I am thinking of my sister Taylor, as this is our first Christmas apart in 18 years.  I miss her dearly as do Mom and Dad.  Also, I miss my brother Buddy who is at Rainbow Bridge as well.

I, and my siblings, thank you for all the Catster gifties, p-mails and gifts.  It has been a wonderful Catmas time for us all!

Much love,
Tigger

From my mom:  I want to thank all my friends on Catster who have been so caring this past year with Taylor being ill and journeying to the Bridge, and with Tigger being ill with CRF.  It means so much to have your support.

Love,
Gina]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Friends,

Thank you!  Thank you so much for all the birthday well-wishes, gifties, pmails, and gifts for my birthday!  I wanted to take a moment to let you know how special a day you helped to make it.

All of my brothers and sisters and I had Fancy Feast Elegant Medleys for our dinner.  Mom bought several flavors that she thought I would like, and I got to sample all of them.  My siblings loved sharing in the birthday dinner!  We also had Pounce treats for desert. :)

Since I don't play with toys anymore, but I love catnip, we had a catnip fest in the evening after dinner.  Mom sprinkled it all around, on our cat tree and scratch mat.  Everyone partook of it and we lay around afterward and had a grooming session.

I was so mellow I even let Bob lay upon my Heated Wellness bed that my niece and nephew, Zoey and Zack, sent me, and I didn't even smack him! Mol  

We had the greatest day and Mom had so much fun opening my gifties and such on Catster!

Love to all of you,

Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I forgot to tell you that my blood pressure was normal at my last checkup.  So, unless I'm not feeling well from my CRF, I don't have to go in to the vet every single month.  So, good news!

Love,
Tigger

P.S. I'm really enjoying our new home!  Mom feels so grateful and blessed that I have survived the CRF and high blood pressure thus far, and that I was able to experience the move.  I am very brave...I was the first kitty to explore our new house.  Mom knew I would be! :)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

Mom and I just got back from my checkup.  I gained 9 ounces in the past month!  My vet and mom are really happy, and so am I.  Being off the renal diet has its pros and cons, but putting on extra weight is a good thing in my case. And, I am actually enjoying my regular food!

The vet techs did my blood pressure check in the exam room this time with Mom present. My blood pressure was on the low side, so Dr. Ginny is adjusting my medicine down. Mom suggested since I get stressed being taken to the back and having my pressure taken, that future blood pressure readings be done in the exam room with her present. Hopefully this will give a more accurate average.

My next appointment is in four weeks.  I will have another blood pressure check and a mini-blood panel done to see where my BUN and Creatinine are at.  I will keep you posted.

Please keep the prayers and purrs coming!

Love and Kitty Hugs,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Catster Friends,

I had my check up on Thursday.  My high blood pressure problem is starting to resolve with the medication, but it's still a tad high, so my Norvasc has been increased.  The main problem is my weight.  I lost 5.5 ounces this past month.  The vet believes it is due to my CRF and my age.  

Mom told my vet that she wanted to let me eat the food I want to eat, instead of the renal diet which I only tolerate, and to let me enjoy whatever time I have left.  My vet agreed this would probably be for the best and that she would help keep me comfortable.  

Mom is devastated with the thought of losing me.  We've been inseparable for almost 18 years.  And with my sister Taylor going to the Bridge just a few short months ago, this is doubly hard.

Much Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I have good news!  I had my checkup last week and my renal numbers are stable. :)  My blood pressure is on the high side again, so the vet upped my Norvasc.  She also recommended a renal supplement called Azodyl to put into my food.  Mom brought home a few capsules and tried it.  I accepted it in my food!  She is thrilled, as the supplement is supposed to help with the toxins created by the CRF.

My next checkup is in a month.  I'll let you know how everything is going then.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I had my second fluids treatment tonight.  Mom and Dad tried using a larger needle so that it would go faster for me.  I fought it even more tonight.  They're not sure why I struggle so, if it hurts or not while I"m getting the fluids, or if the feeling of the liquid going under my skin is uncomfortable?

Mom had to wedge me between a pillow and her thigh so the needle would stay in. :(  Are there any others of you out there who have had this problem?  Please let us know; we would appreciate your insights.

On a pawsitive note...I am taking my high blood pressure medicine well.  I don't mind the liquid.  

Thank you to my friends who have sent rosettes, gifties, stars and p-mail.  It really means a lot to me and my mom!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Well Friends, I had my first fluid treatment tonight and I did not like it one little bit!  Oh, I was calm at first because I didn't know what was happening, but once I realized I had a needle stuck in my back, I started squirming and squirming!  Mom tried to calm me by talking gently and quietly to me, explaining what was going on, but I wasn't having no splaining!  

Mom almost started crying, poor thing.  But that didn't phase me at all.  In the end, Mom gave up holding me down.  She thinks she might have gotten all the 50 ml in me that the vet wanted, but she isn't sure because it was a new bag.

Mom is asking that you purr for us that I will come to accept the fluids.  In the mean time, if you have any suggestions, please let us know.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I had my check up this afternoon.  My vet took my blood pressure and it's high, so I'm going to be taking medicine for it.  Apparently, kitties with CRF can get high blood pressure.  I have a re-check in a week to see how I am doing on the medication dosage.

My blood work was good and bad.  On one hand, my Bun went down from 53 to 39...that's good.  But, my Creatinine went up from 2.2 to 2.6; that's not so good.  I'm going to go on a 100% renal food diet and hopefully that will help.  Also, my vet recommended my parents give me sub-q fluids.  Mom is worried about how I am going to react.  Hopefully I'll do okay.

I wanted to thank all the kitties who are purring for me and who sent gifties and p-mails.  Please keep me in your purrs.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

Just an update to let you know I have the next appointment with my vet on March 26th.  Also, I am enjoying the renal diet that my vet prescribed--Royal Canin Renal wet and dry foods.  Mom is also going to try some lower phosphorus wet foods to give me a variety.

I am adjusting to my sister Taylor being gone.  I am much less clingy with Mom now and I am not actively looking for Taylor all the time.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

My test results are in.  I have CRF (chronic renal failure) in the beginning stage.  We knew that with my being 17, I could develop an age-related disease.  Mom is going to pick up some special food for me at my vet's today, and also request my panel numbers.  She can't recall what Dr. Ginny said on the phone regarding my numbers; she went blank after she heard "kidney disease".

There's never a good time for this to happen, but for Mom to find out right after Taylor crossing the Bridge is so hard.  Mom has some researching to do about CRF.  She wants to find out if there are any good supplements for me and how to keep me comfortable.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hi Friends,

I wanted to let you know that I'm working through my grief for my sister Taylor.  Yesterday, I saw that my brother Marmelade, who I like to sleep next to best now, was in my sister Taylor's cat bed.  I went over and squeezed into it with him.  (Squeeze being the operative word since Marmelade weighs 16 pounds and it's a small cat bed!)  It made Mom very happy to see that I was able to sleep there with Marmelade.

I have a wellness check up tomorrow.  Mom will be talking with Dr. Ginny about how I am feeling and acting.  Mom knows that it will take some time, just like with her and Dad, for me to work through my grief.

Love,
Tigger]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ We had an early Christmas present this year...16 inches of snow fell at our place on December 7th.  It was all very exciting!  It was a lot of snow for Placerville--we usually get that much in an entire season.

Mom had to stay home from work that day because her car wouldn't clear the snow, plus she doesn't have four wheel drive.  Thank goodness the snow plow came through that night and she could get to work the next morning.

The snow stayed for about five days, slowly melting away.  Mom took pictures of the snow on our street.  There is one on my page if you want to see it.

I want to thank all of you wonderful Catster kitties who sent us Christmas cards this year; it was so very much appreciated!

Love and Purrs,
Tigger and Family]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I was tagged by Beckham.

THE RULES
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write about themselves (the seven random facts) as well as the rules in their diary. You need to select seven cats to tag and list their names. Don't forget to leave them a comment (via p-mail) telling them that they've been tagged and that they need to read your diary for more information.

MY SEVEN FACTS
1.  I am a master at finding treats.  My mom has a hard time hiding them and finally decided to put them in the fridge.
2.  I'm a velcro kitty and stick to my mom like glue!
3.  I tested positive for FIV when I was 7 days old and negative at 7 years old.  It was because of maternal anti-bodies.
4.  I was born in a wall, literally.  That's where my parents rescued me from.
5.  Except for a teeth cleaning or two, I've been healthy (paws crossed.)
6.  I love Taco Bell taco meat!
7.  I have a little freckle on my nose :)

Cats I tagged:
Askem
Circles
Muffin
Mylo
Buster
Muffin
Baby Poppy]]></content:encoded>

There's a stranger in my house trying to eat my tail 
She's made herself at home and I could just wail!

Why oh why did they add to our family
It wasn't so bad just us three
Taylor, Bob and me

There's a kitten and I hiss
She's disturbing my bliss
