So I spoke to the vet about Slinky today and the prognosis wasn’t good.  The chemical’s in his body are getting back to the normal ranges however he’s still lethargic, not eating and not talking…  They were saying it’s possible that it’s a side effect of the medication that he’s received but that his response is not normal. 🙁  Sigh I told the vet that regardless of his condition, I’ll have to pick him up tomorrow as it’s costing me $1,500 a day to keep him there and my bill is already going to be close to $7,000 by the time this is all done.

I sat Brandon down just now to tell him too that it’s possible that Slinky may not be the same when he returns.  He’s obviously sad about it but I guess it’s a good life lesson…  Life is not fair, Slinky is only 6 so hardly an old cat and if he dies in the near future, we’re definitely robbed of many years of happiness.  On the flip side he was a great friend and pet, our lives are better with him in it even if the time is short.
