my Rustle is in the hospital I admitted him today,
he was doing really bad yesterday,he had the runs,poor sweetie, he had goo coming out his eyes ,alot of it too,so I rinsed his eyes with opti-clense for cats ,he has over the past week developed a bit of muscle wasting around his spine,and he had the symptoms of a respiratory infection,but the cold-like symptoms subsided today,last night I was scared shitless for him,feeding him spoonfuls of broth and water and nutrical I was awake all night I could not sleep.I was ok,but I was on DU late trying to distracrt myself as he slept..He looked better this morning ,but still not good,very lethargic his eyes were clear and fine tho..At the vet they took a blood test,put him on IV fluids and he's eating now,.The blood test,said all his basic functions liver,kidneys etc.were all good,so the next step is to look for possible tumors or infections.They will be doing x rays and such..I am so worried about him, my other two Vinnie and Sparkle are upset,too I am giving them alot of touching and holding,a storm is coming and I think I'd better shut off my computer..
But before I go I want to ask you guys to
Please send up sage,call Bast/Sekhmet or whatever you do,because if he has a tumor let it be operable and let this problem he may have be contained and eliminated.I love my Rustle.And I want him to make it.
This is Rustle.

I am sending all of the positive and healthy vibes from sunny Colorado here. Keep us posted. He is a beautiful boy- and every orange tabby that I have ever known has been the sweetest, most mellow cat around.

13. The news about Rustle is not good. See the Rustle update thread.
The person hasn't been back here to give an update, but I'm sorry to say that Rustle was full of cancer and couldn't be saved. I don't know the OP, but I had followed this thread.
