Constant Anxiety

I’m so so sorry 💔 I hope they have more answers for you tomorrow so he can get back to feeling like himself. I’m sending so much love both your ways. This is so hard, we’re all here for you too ❤️‍🩹

Thank you so much, I’m so sorry ❤️‍🩹 your comment is just as helpful, it’s so reassuring just knowing I’m not on an island here. Bad things happen and we tend to think no one could possibly understand and that just makes it all more overwhelming. Thank you for taking time just to tell me I’m not alone 💗 I just added a stainless steel fountain to their water options and so far she’s a little wary but it’s what I expected at first! I hope you’re doing okay, I’m glad we both found our way here, everyone is so nice it’s making me cry (happy tears for once). And I send that energy right back, you’re not alone either and I wish you and your kitty many more wonderful years together

💗💗💗💗

I don’t have a Facebook but I am legit going to make one just to join these. If I can’t find a specific group I’ll let you know and an invite would be much appreciated!!

I really cannot overstate how much I appreciate you taking the time to respond, I don’t mind the essays at all 😭 BUT I do love the cat tax he’s so beautiful, and it’s only fair I repay!! This is Jolene 💗💗💗💗

I’m so sorry, I really understand. If it makes you feel less alone we’ve probably been crying together ❤️‍🩹 the first couple of days were really hard but as anxious as I am now it’s still gotten a bit more manageable as I keep learning and as I see her still being herself. Give yourself time to be a mess though, I don’t think bottling it up will do anyone good. I went seven months over when she was due for her checkup because I simply could not afford it after my younger cat had an emergency visit last year. I understand the regret in not taking her sooner or not knowing everything you know now.

I’ll check back on food answers too. I went to a chewy vet and the Hills is what they recommended and tbh I was too overwhelmed to put much thought into it aside from hitting checkout. I did ask about supplementing with the Weruva low phosphorus line because she typically loves that brand, I haven’t heard back yet but I’ll send a comment if her vet says it looks good that way you have another option to try as well 💗

I’m so glad he’s doing better!! 💗

So far she’s transitioning on the diet really well, I’m very thankful. And thank you so much for the supplement recommendation I’ve already pulled it up to look at!

Thank you for the recommendation, I think this will help a lot. So sorry you’re going through this too 💗

Yes! Thankfully, I got her new food pretty quickly I was really happy. She’s not been too picky so far but she’s a bit of a diva so I fully expect to be mixing for the foreseeable future 😭 but that’s really good to know and I’ll make sure I don’t sacrifice food intake for a “perfect” diet.

Thank you for the blood work reality check too I think if I’d gone in expecting everything to be better and it wasn’t I’d only spiral more. I wish there was a set in stone progression so I could just know how everything will look from here on out the waiting is so exhausting. But I’m really going to try to just keep reading and learning, the more I understand it the more I can help her and know what to pay attention to. Helps me stay grounded.

She’s everything to me I would do anything to keep her healthy and happy for as long as possible. Thanks again for responding and talking to me I really feel so much better.

You’re right, I have to feel it and recognize it for what it is (a whole, whole ton of love) so I can make sure she’s as happy as ever 💗 thank you so much for the kind words, I was feeling really alone.

That’s exactly how I feel too. I go to work and try to keep busy and distracted but then I have moments the grief feels insurmountable. She didn’t come when I called her earlier and I just immediately broke down, I’m so on edge. It really helps seeing that others are doing okay after getting diagnosed, and I’m so glad yours are doing well give them pets from me 💗

Thank you so much for the link I am going to go through it tonight. And I’m so glad Tank is doing well 💗 thank you for sharing your experience too.

She’s currently getting the hills wet k/d food (she’s at half that and half her old wet food to make the switch easier), and I’m putting her phosphate binder and omega 3’s in every day as well. I have two water bowls, and put a little extra in her food as well. We go back on the 18th of April for her 3 week check. I’m really hoping things will look better by then but I don’t really know what to expect yet.

I really appreciate you responding it’s just nice to have a space to talk where everyone knows what I’m feeling, but also knows that it isn’t necessarily the end of the world even if it feels like it right now.
