I am sad

Please pardon my long absence from my blog. This has been an unusally eventful summer around here. It's a long story, and I may tell all about it later. Right now, my heart hurts.


My heart has been sick lately. The V.E.T. did not like the way my heart sounded, so he sent me and Treater to a cat-cardiologist. They took pictures of my heart (among other things!!!) and put me on special medicine. He said my heart was huge. I thought a big heart was good, but not in this case. He also said there was a lot of fluid around my heart. I had to take three pills a day! I went back last week for more pictures of my heart and the V.E.T. was very surprised and said my heart almost looks normal! Now I just take two pills a day.


I felt better...for a short time. Now my heart hurts again.


My very bestest cyber-friend...my inspiration for this blog...has been very sick, too. Tiggie FOC (that means Faithful Orange Cat) had some surgery a couple of weeks ago, but it did not help him get better. Blondie and Bernie had to make a hard choice yesterday, and they helped Tiggie cross the Bridge. Now Tiggie feels better, and is romping with his old friends, Mac and Tidbit, and a lot of other friends, too.




Treater and Napper went to visit Blondie and Bernie and Tiggie and Hart a couple of months ago. Treater took this picture of Tiggie for me (beautiful, isn't he?). He didn't feel very good here.

It's a sad day when a cat leaves his people. Please purray for his family...they are sad.

So am I.

I am very sorry for the loss of your friend.

My sister Pixie had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and she did very well for many, many years on her medicines!

Spooky my girl, sounds like a rough time has been happening in a few places. I am glad your heart is feeling better now and I hope you stay feeling better. I am going to teleport over and keep you company...it has been too long since I have seen you.

Thanks for putting up a picture of Tigs that I hadn't seen before. He was such a faithful orange guy, and it was hard to send him over the bridge, but he has friends there too.

So glad you are eating and playing a bit now. Be strong girl! You are loved.

We are so sorry!! We are so slow catching up on everyone, the PM has been horrid with the blogging lately. We had heard that Tiggie had surgery but we didn't know he left for the Bridge. That is so sad.

We hope you are feeling better soon!
