critical care

isis and koobi fora have chronic kidney failure.

so this is day one of my blog but day six of isis being in critical care at angell memorial hospital. i meant to start writing about chronic kitty kidney failure long before isis got sick. i found out about koobs in july. she lost a ton of weight and stopped playing. all summer we have been treating her and that is what i was going to blog about. but i didn't know the whole time isis was sick too and just didn't show any symptoms.

one week ago, i thought she was being unually lazy. she didn't come into the kitchen and try to steal food while i was making dinner. tuesday night i noticed she didn't move too much and she peed on the couch. i almost took her to the emergency room. but she got up and drank some water and i thought she would be okay for the night. last wednesday i took her to my regular vet and she sent me straight to angell.

I just read your entire blog in reverse after seeing the picture of Koobi Fora on Cute Overload. Your love for your cats is apparent with every word and every photo you shared. I don't know what else to say other than my thoughts are with you in this most agonizing of times.
