Hi everybody!
We went back to the veterinary ophthalmologist today and the news wasn’t what I wanted to hear.
She told me and Jen that my eyes aren’t getting any better with medication and she doesn’t want to up the steroid dosage because it could impact my liver, kidneys, and cause diabetes. Surgery is the next step. Jen scheduled it for next Tuesday.
The good news is the vet said it shouldn’t be a painful recovery for me.Ā The bad news I’ll hafta wear the dreaded Cone of Shame for several days.
There’s also a chance the granulomas could come back.
Please keep us in your thoughts. Me cuz I hafta go through this, and Jen because she is stressing already.
Love,
Yella

Fingers crossed
Thank you!
Oh gosh. Iām sorry that you both have to go through it, but Iām glad Jen cares and is on top of this for you. Sending you both warm and fuzzy thoughts!
Thanks!
I’m so sorry to hear this! Many hopes and hugs for a successful procedure and a fast recovery.
I’m not happy about it either, but it must be done.
Purring for you and Jen!
Thank you!
Love and loud purring for everything to go well, esp. healing quickly! Do you have a soft clown collar to wear? OurGirl sends gentle hugs to Jen, too. Just worrying about everyday things is hard enough!
The cone is to keep me from rubbing my eyes, so I don’t know if a soft collar would work.
You both are definitely in our thoughts for the suggested treatment to do the trick. We have Jen can relax a little over the weekend to help reduce her stress.
Thank you! And Jen will be OK. She worries because she loves me.
Darn it. Yella, we were hoping for better news, too. We’re sending purrs and prayers of peace and freedom from anxiety for you and Jen.
Thank you!
We’re thinking of you and Jen. My biped also gets really stressed if one of us has something wrong.
Jen says she knows it’s wasted effort, because worry doesn’t change anything, but she still worries.
hugs, positive thoughts and crossed fingers & paws for youuuu!
Thanks you guys!
Wishing you all the best and a good recovery!
Thank you!
Wishing you and everyone well…………. will be thinking of you all.
Thanks!
Hey Yella good luck with op! Has Jen got you a soft cone of shame, much more comfortable than the hard plastic ones šš
Jen thought about it but the cone is to keep me from rubbing my eyes and a soft cone probably won’t help. She’ll ask the vet though to be sure.
To be honest we find the soft one ,( shaped the same as the hard plastic one) is excellent. The round one not so good but the soft cone is excellent and more comfortable. But yes do as the vet ššš
Thanks!
A pleasure our lab Ruby lives her soft collar and I know they do them for cats too šš
Poor fella. Hope it goes well and Jen can de-stress quickly.
Thank you!
Poor Yella…..weāre keeping you in our thoughts. š±š
Poor kitty! My sister, Lizzy, my human and I will all keep our paws crossed.

I’m so sorry that you are going through this! Thinking of you and sending positive energy your way.
I’m sorry the medication didn’t work and surgery will have to be done. Fingers crossed it all goes well and they don’t come back.
Too bad the meds and the healing purrz didn’t do the trick. I hope the surgery is successful. TW gets all kinds of styes and shalazeons on her eyelid too.
