I write this with a very sad, heavy heart, and a very conflicted mind.
This is gonna sound funny, but I need a prayer for poop. Specifically, for the cat's poop to go from being loose and liquidy, to normal and dry like it's supposed to be. Her meds seem to have no effect on the amount of gas she has, and when she farts, diarrhea goes everywhere. To top it all off, she just threw up AGAIN. She was doing good for awhile with not doing it but now seems to be relapsing.
So yeah, if you could please offer up some prayers for normal poop and her gassiness to dissipate, that would be awesome.
Each time she farts, poop goes everywhere and my heart sinks a little more. This seems to be a thing with orange tabbies, because my Rusty went through the same thing, except he didn't throw up all the time. He lost alot of weight and lost bowel control. My plan was that when the cat runs out of med refills, I would have her put to sleep. More and more it looks like that's going to happen much sooner than anticipated. I'm just not physically able to keep cleaning up after her when she vomits and craps on the floor. My back can't handle all this bending and squatting I have to do to pick it up, nor can my back handle lifting a heavy 10-pound litter jug.. and it hurts me deeply that I have to put her to sleep, to simplify MY life.
I think she's ready though. I told her when she was ready, to let me know. Rusty let me know he was ready, because he would sit in front of me and stare at me for long periods of time. Tequila is doing the same thing now. Every time I look at her, she's sitting and staring at me. My prayer for her SHOULD be "Lord please heal my cat". Instead my prayer is "Lord please send spring to Vermont so I can bury my kitty".
Why can't animals be immune from illness and death??!!!
Having pets really sucks, because it hurts too much when we lose them. I'm NOT getting another cat after this one is gone. This whole thing really sucks, because I'm dealing with so much right now: another herniation of my back, and I'm faced with a decision of having back surgery, the cat is sick, she needs to go to sleep, and if I DO have surgery it'll have to wait until the cat is put down. I won't be in any shape after surgery to clean up after the cat.. When it rains, it pours. And this is a tsunami.
Prayers for normal poop and no gassiness would be greatly appreciated. Thanks..
