I've just come back from the vets and
I'm sad to say that Gennie has extreamly
high blood pressure (280)
brought on by kidney failure. :-(

I have been given some pills for her to take daily (crushed in food)
and have to go back in 3 weeks for a check up.
Hopefully the pills will lower her blood pressure and that in turn will
help with the kidneys.

Wish us luck
 
Oh dear :( but who's Gennie ? one of the mice ?

best of luck though and fingers crossed :thumbs:

According to an older post, that's Gennie.

I'm really sorry to hear that Wolf, I know what she's going through right now. We last one of our cats to kidney failure earlier this year, it's not nice seeing them go through it =/ Mind you though, cats can often make the vets look silly by holding on a lot longer than is tought they will =)

I hope she'll live out the rest of her life without too much trouble or pain. And I'm once again really sorry to hear you and her have to go through this.
 
yes Gennie is one of my cats.
thanks for your kind words
 
Aww she's beautiful, hope the tablets work.
 
Poor Gennie! I hope the meds make her feel better. Sorry to hear your predicament wolf and I hope everything works out. Remember to give her moist food to keep her hydrated. Also lots of love!

Big hugs!
 
I hope she gets better for you wolf I hate when people animals gets sick, I think if you show her you love her and want her with you I think that makes a big difference with a animal.. Godd luck with your cat I will have my fingers crossed for you and your kitty..
 
Sorry to hear that Wolfie. Hopefully she'll be feeling better soon. :)

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and Gennie. :thumbs:

good news everyone
I've just come back from a checkup and Gennies blood pressure is now 180
that is still a bit high but no where near as high as it was.

She now has to taken the pills for the rest of her life, which I hope will be a few more years now
than I thought 3 weeks ago. :thumbs:
 
:D what a relief ! Hope she continues to do well and live a happy life :)
