Re: Healing thoughts for Porsha please..


Thank you all for your healing thoughts, vibes and prayers. Porsha is far far too quiet this evening. She is the liveliest, naughtiest cat I have ever owned and to see her so depressed is very worrying and upsetting. I will keep you updated on her progress..

Re: Healing thoughts for Porsha please..


aww Fran I hope she gets better soon. We had what sounds like similar problems with our little Siamese Gizmo. Several times in her first few years she was hospitalised on a drip due to severe sickness and 'scoots' She even got to the stage of vomiting blood. She has been well now for a year and a half, she was a fighter and Porsha sounds the same. These Orientals may look a little fine and fragile but they have steel cores and are extremely strong in my experience. I am sure she will beat this!!!

Thank you so much Het, I hadn't realised you had had problems of a similar nature with one of your cats too. Luckily for Porsha vomiting has never been an issue, it's just the squits but she is incontinent with them, it's running out of her all the time I do think they are stronger than we give them credit for but at the side of moggies they do seem so sickly and fragile Your post has given me some hope, so for that I thank you x

Who is that gorgeous looking kitty in your dp?

With Gizmo the trick seemed to be stopping the vomiting and scoots for long enough to give her system a break, and time to get stronger. A sensitive stomach based diet helped, and she still has that but she also is able to eat oher things without any ill effect. We do have a supply of a chalky type of liquid from the vets to give her if she is under the weather but have'nt had to use it for a long time. What did use to shock me was the speed that she would go downhill, it was scary.

The fella in my avatar is Boo, my Maine Coon kitten. I lost another moggie William back in December due to quite sudden kidney failure. Was looking for another mog but Boo came along....and he is a real star

You are right about how quickly they go downhill, it's scary but equally they pick up quickly too, it's a real rollercoaster isn't it although I have to say that Porsha has never been as ill as she is at the minute and it is vrey frightening

I had heard about William, it must have been such a shock to you and you must miss her greatly Boo is a stunner, I have to say that I am rather partial to Maine Coon myself. You lucky thing, he is a stunner! How about posting some good close up shots of him in the piccies section Het
