She was given 3 months a month ago, but I reckon she's going to be here much longer than that!!
Hope the PDSA help you out, and that your kitty feels better soon xx |
Thank you for replying, our vet said alot of cats have this but dont realise it? I remember reading about your Audrey a while ago and I never put 2 and 2 together, I was shocked when the vet told me and have been trying to look for some info on it. I'm glad she is doing well, she sounds very happy & active!
I must admit Filou is always out running around like a crazy thing and sometimes it worries me but its who he is at the end of the day so as long as he is happy
He is on 2 tablets a day but they treat heart murmers so I hope we wont have to wait long for his xray, I sent a letter off to the PDSA today so fingers crossed they will xray him soon.
He was also diagnosed at 7 months and I was told he may not make it and if he did the quality of life wouldnt be the same for him and thankfully they were so wrong! He is 2 years now and more active than hes ever been!
Thanks again for taking the time to reply, give Audrey a hug from me!
