Hello everyone,here is the latest from the vet.. Not a lot of news. I have seen two different vets and mum has spoken to two others today. All are agreed that they wont prescribe steroids until the blood results are in and they are not back yet. they say that if the results show positive then the steroids could cause more harm. The vet nurse has been trying to chase them up for mum today but so far no luck. They did say to go in and get a food that watered down and syringed. Mum is holding off on that until tomorrow because they said the stress could also have an adverse effect. One light in the tunnel is that dad managed to get me to eat a little and I drank some cat milk last night and today so I got something inside me.We have to trust the vets and are so hoping that the trust is justified. By hook or by crook tomorrow we will either know whats wrong or I will start on steroids. Thank you all so much for your concerns as it is keeping us going.. Love to all GJ xx

Oh sweet GJ, I sure hope they find out something for you, I know your Mum and Dad are worried sick. We love you GJ and thanks for the update!
GJ, we're holding our collective breaths for you, and purring and purraying so hard that you will be well. We're glad you ate a bit. It's beyond awful when you don't have a definitive diagnosis and are just taking stabs in the dark at treatment, so we hope for something concrete and easily treatable.
Big kitty kisses to you and mom is sending hugs to your mum and dad!

GJ, we are so glad to hear that you did drink some milk at least. We know your mum and dad are beside themselves with worry. We are still praying for you and them too. Like Brian just said...we love you....you know you have the entire world praying for you. Lots of love, Holly and mom
We've kept checking in during the day t see whether there was an update, GJ. We very much hope the results do come back tomorrow and then something can be done to break this deadlock. In the meantime, hang in there and eat what you can. You are surrounded by a global halo of love!
We have been sooo worried about you .. been checking every 20 minutes for an update .. he hope it the results come in and something can be done. Its hard to loev someone so much and not know what you can do to make them better. Pleae get better soon :)
Paws crossed for those reports to show up soon, like right now, GJ. We don't know a lot about all those steroids, but we know they should be taken with care. So Mum and Dad are wise to wait for the vets to determine what is best. We are sure they are getting the very best care and opinions for you. Can you please try to eat and drink a bit more?

We are purring our hardest, and praying our sincerest for a USEFUL result with good news tomorrow. We're also sending out strongest soothing purrs for your family, who must be going out of their minds with concern for you now.
GET WELL SOON DEAREST GJ!!!!
Our mum wants to put loving and healing kisses on top of that darling, floofy head of yours, GJ. Continued purrs and (((HUGS))).
We are purring for good results, GJ! Samson is on a low-dose of steroids for his allergies and always seems hungrier. Our vet said it shouldn't make too much of a difference in his eating habits, but we imagine it would be different if it's a higher dose. Keep up the eating, GJ! We love you!
Oh GJ, we so desperately want you to start eating and drinking tons!!! We will keep purring and hopeing the tests will get completed soon!
GJ I hope they can figure out what is going on with you soon. I want you to start eating buddy. We are sending purrs to you!
You're such a brave boy GJ! We pray those vets find something easily treatable really soon!
Nubbin wiggles & hugs,
Oskar & his mom person Pam
GJ, we have our paws crossed (at at the moment that's a lot of paws!) that you'll find out something. We hate not knowing!

And Miss GJ, Please eat some more !
I will stay tune here for your update
Love and Hug to you and your family

Oh GJ we wish you would start eating. We have not visted much but have been so hoping we would come back with news you were eating like crazy. But even a bit is better than nothing. And it just stinks that you still aren't sure what is up. We keep thinking that you aren't the first of our blog friends to go through this kind of thing, and we hoped the outcome would be like so many of theirs, that you just got better on your own and were eating. We know that if your mom has to resort to syringing it will be tough, but maybe if she has to it will help you get more into the idea of eating on your own, like kickstarting your appetite. No matter what happens we are sending you and your mom and dad tons of purrs and prayers, both for you to get better and for them to have a bit of comfort.
Oh GJ we are so disappointed. We have been purring so hard for you.
Mom and Dad you guys stay on top of this..you need to know something soon.
We Love You GJ
Jude,Poo,Babybella,Piper & Marley
Oh little Ginger, I know how frightened your mommy is. I sure do hope they have a diagnosis soon sweet baby.
xoxo
Homers mama
Hang in there, big boy!
I can see you're very pensive.
Hugs,
Mandu
We love you so and are hoping the Vet helps you soon. So glad you ate a little and drank some cat milk.
xoxo Kassey and her Mom
GJ, I sure hope you feel better soon and glad that you will finally either know what is wrong or get some medicine to help you want to eat tomorrow.
WEll darn, I was hoping for some good news, but I guess it is good news that you ate a little bit GJ. I check all the time to see if there are any results. Mom and Dad must be beside themselves with worry. Just know GJ that tons of people and cats love you so much and are routing for you to get better. We are sending tons more purrs and some good prayers. We still have our paws crossed and it really makes it hard to walk around with the paws crossed but we are doing it so you will get better. Take care. Big hugs to Mom and Dad.
My sweet GJ, my purrs are with you. I hope the test results show something so the vets will know how to treat this. My mom totally understands your mom and dad's attitude towards the vets - we've got to trust them and do what is best for us kitties!
GJ, I am sending you lots of purrs. It must be so frustrating for your humans to not be able to do anything for so long! Please keep us posted on your blood test results!
w00fs, ooo GJ, me has been keeping up with your sickies...me happy to hear u eats a little today..me hopes they can figure it out soon, so they can help u..

We love you and want you to be better!
Purrs Tillie and Georgia
praying and purring for you...(((((hugs))))
We're glad that you've eaten! and we hope your vets can get a good idea of what's been ailing you, GJ.
Oh dearest Jasper! Where are those labs!! It is horrible that they are not back yet. Your vet says that you shouldn't start steroids because if the labs come back positive they will do harm. What is it that they are testing you for?
Before you start any steroid, you need have an OK from your vet. Maybe he will let you go on for just a few days to perk up your appetite. But you shouldn't start them unless the doc says ok. How about the appetite stimulant? What do they say about that? We are so sorry for all of the questions but we are so distraught that you are still waiting for your labs and not eating.
We love you so much, dear. Tell your wonderful dad to keep up the good work feeding you. You and your mum and dad are in our hearts and in our prayers.
P.S. Have you asked for a vitamin B12 shot? Lots of vets think they are very old fashioned but they have worked for us in the past. How about a possible tube feeding for you. The kind where they pass the tube, feed you and then remove the tube?
We so wish your appetite would return, GJ. We want you to get well.
Oh, did you see the post on Missy Blue Eyes' this evening? there's a very short version on the CB. ML had a bad fall today. :(
Poor, sweet GJ..sending continued positive thoughts and purrs your way! Hopefully this all can be sorted out soon!
We are still hoping for a cause ans a fix
I'm praying for good news for you. Thanks for the update. I know your vet is very right to not start steroids until they are such it's not an infection. We don't want you getting any sicker. Thank goodness you are still eating, even if it is just a little. xoxoxo
Ginger Jasper!
Sorry you have to wait some more time to know about your results!
I hope you ate and drank a little more!
Paws crossed!
Kisses and hugs
Lorrenza
We think of you daily GJ, we hope you start to feel better and the cat doctor can figure out what is wrong. xoxo
PS: our word verification is vitil... sort of like vittles... maybe it's a good luck sign you will eat xo
Not knowing is so nerve-wracking! Thanks for the update. Please continue to try to eat a bit, dear friend. Sending soft woos of comfort to mum and dad and vigorous howls of White Dog healing energy to you. Feel our positive thoughts surrounding you all.
Your Mum and Dad must be so worried and frustrated. We have paws crossed and loud purrs for you today. We hope the vet sorts it out PDQ!
Nothing is worse than waiting ! I hope they finally will find out what you have !!
We love you, and are sending lots of purrayers.
GJ, you know you're in our thoughts and purrs. We know what you're going thru, and we'll continue to send you positive vibes.
Dear GJ and mum and dad - we have been purring our hardest for you and hope the results come through early today so you aren't waiting and waiting and hope you can start your medication quickly. We are so pleased you ate a little and drank some cat milk but we've got to get some meat back on those bones of yours.
Luv Hannah & Lucy xx xx & Sue xx

Oh GJ. I am still purring for you.
dear gj, bestest wishes to you--gentle headbonks an' skritches frum us an' meower mom! we hopes an' purrs that the vetties will find out what the prollem is immejitly an' kin fix it pronto. this waitin' game is fur the birds! keep on suppin' a bit here an' there, please. we continues to prrray an' purr fur you an' yours!
Oh, GJ...waiting when you are sick is hard for both humans and cats, alike! Kari mentioned B12 injections and if a kitty has IBD then they become low in B12 cobalamine/folate and the the injections help bring that level back up which helps appetite and digestion (that's an oversimplification but sort of in a nutshell...)

GJ... hope they find out good news today and will know which way to go. I know your mom and dad are ready to have some answer. I'm purring for ya, pal. Thanks for letting us know what happening.
special pawhugs,
Max
Oh, GJ. I've been thinking about you every single day and hoping that you start feeling better. My paws are crossed that the vet will be able to figure out what's wrong with you from the test results. I'm very much glad that you ate something and I hope pretty soon you're eating a lot more.
Wiggles & Wags,
Mayzie
We stopped by hoping for some more news.
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
O poor GJ! This is just taking so long to get you some help! Did they ever give you a laxative for all that poo that had built up inside you?
I know if you're constipated, you're not going to feel like doing anything.
I hope the answer is something simple, and that they find it fast.
Me and the 3-Ds love you GJ, and we purr for your every day.
