Context: Beni had severely blocked and inflated bladder: had we not got him in when he did, he likely would no longer be with us

But since theyre a bonded pair...shes just as worried as we are, and doesnt quite understand that he's being treated for something serious

(Meanwhile, I have been running an emotional gamut, from distressed to paranoia/anger to everywhere in between)

oh

stay strong

it's hard to be a kitty

hugs for you and the kitties. Could she visit Beni to help her understand?

I'm not certain its a good idea: I dont wanna give him hope he's coming home before his body is ready for it

(I've seen that happen with a surrendered cat to a shelter our store back in Toronto was helping out...it just made her REALLY depressed when the person came in CONSTANTLY and then left without her. The shelter had to step in and tell her not to)

He's gotta be able to pee without the catheter before he's alllowed to leave

Aww, poor kitties
