5-26 Gizmo Vet Appt Update; Pics Added

Yesterday

No cancellations for today and 11 emergencies came in last night. So the vet office asked if we could wait until 1 today to bring him in. 2 1/2 hours left.

He is eating but picky. However, he has perked up so much. We even went outside this morning. He is now currently at the door because he isn’t happy I brought him back in.

I have an entire list of worries/concerns and questions for the vet. He now has a patch of skin on his neck where the hair in falling out in clumps. I’m wondering if that is also related to the pred.

I will keep everyone updated once we know more. Thanks for all the prayers, vines, and positive thoughts.

 

Sending vetty vines and prayers with for you.

 

Vetty vines coming your way. Write down all of your concerns, if I don't I always forget something . I am praying for good news for y'all

 

Already done. I’m the same way.

 

I am glad to see Gizmo is doing a little bit better. I am SO SORRY for what you guys are going through. It's so awful. Hugs to you and your fur baby.

 

Thinking of you and Gizmo today - best of luck

 

I'm glad Gizmo is doing better this morning. Sending vetty vines.

 

Lots of vines for Gizmo's vetty appointment. I hope they can figure out what is going on.
Hugs for you!

 

Sending vines for Gizmo's appointment!

 

More extra special Canadian vetty vines coming your way!

 

The tumor has gotten a lot bigger in only a few weeks. They gave him some fluids and a different pain med (bupe). Said to continue giving the cerenia and give the bupe instead of gabapentin. But ok to give them both together if needed. The bupe is 1ml twice a day for 4 days. I have 3 more doses of cerenia. With the rate of growth for the tumor, she doesn’t want to stop the pred ... would actually rather increase the dose, but given his reactions to pred we can’t do that. He will be heading to the rainbow bridge next Saturday morning.

 

Oh No! This is too sad.

I'm so very sorry.

 

My heart breaks for you and your family. Love on Gizmo, cherish him, take tons of pictures/videos and most of all spoil him rotten. Hoping for quite a few good days. Give him a kiss on the top of his head from me.

Neko took bupe (a higher dose) and Cerenia for a long time.

 

I am so very sorry.

 

Oh I am so sorry to hear this. Big hugs to you and Gizmo!

 

I'm so sorry. I hope you have many good days with him.

 

Oh sweetie

Posting through tears.

 

So terribly sorry to read this. Cherish your time with Gizmo. Be very gentle with and kind to yourself. Hugs, tears and love.

 

Oh hon, I sure wish I had some magic to make Gizmo better, it would be all yours in a heartbeat. I read this earlier, and just broke out in tears. I came back to reply and send my thoughts and started crying again. Gizmo and Mav sure have had a few good times in the lagoon together. I'm hoping and praying for a little rebound, with the extra pain meds, it may give you more days to enjoy his company and give him extra love. Sending heaps of , and many more chin scritches for Gizmo.

 

This is so sad, you and Gizmo have been through so much. I don't know what to say

 

They sure did have good times! And those memories we will cherish forever. Maybe Maverick and him could plan to hang out in the lagoon or on the beach one night this week. Gizmo is free from ear pokies, but I’m sure he is still there waiting for his buddies.

ETA - Although maybe not ... he did have 2 pill pockets tonight.

 

I'm so sorry. Make the most of each moment you have left. Sending prayers.

 

I am so sorry for your prognosis. They take pieces of our heart. Give Gizmo extra head bumps and scritches from Phoebe and myself. I know you will cherish every moment. My heart goes out to you.

 

I'm so sorry to read this.

 

You betcha, the boys are sure to be planning some late night visits, the past few cycles, Mav's been dipping in the lagoon, then bouncing all day ...

Gizmo, mama seyz I should sneak some nice treats for you when we visit, I got some shrimp ice cream cones but I ain't supposed to eat any...shhh, don't say anything, one won't hurt

 

Wishing for many days of comfort and lovin's for Gizmo and his family.

 

I'm sorry the vet did not have better news for you. I hope that Gizmo will have some good day's ahead and that you can enjoy your time with him.

George and I send him some gentle head bumps and scritches.

These are for you

 

I was so hoping for good news when I opened your condo. I'm just heartbroken to read that things are progressing with the tumor. You have made the best possible choice for Gizmo, and I hope you and he are able to spend a lot of quality time together in the days you have left, making memories to help you through what is to come. I hope it gives you peace to know you have done everything possible for him, and now you will be giving him the most priceless gift - his freedom. We will be keeping you both in our thoughts and prayers this week.

 

OHH So Very Very Sorry

 

I'm so very sorry, my heart breaks for you. Spoil and love on him as much as possible....let him eat and do what ever he wants with no testing. Give him extra scritches for me. Peace and love for your heart

 

I'm so sorry. Cherish each day

 

I am so sorry for the new,lots of hugs

 

I was sad to read your vet update. Take this week and spoil Gizmo and love him up a lot!

 

Really hoping you would have gotten better news. Prayers for a few days of feeling good, and lots of loving
My heart is breaking for you.

 

We have had 2 pretty good days. He is a bit tired tonight, but that is to be expected. He is enjoying fish flavored food, lots of treats, outside time, and all the special attention. He is being silly and we are making memories.

 

Was so hoping you'd get better news

Will be sending vines for you to have a good week to make some wonderful memories for you to hold onto when it's time for him to start on his next big adventure to the Bridge.

 

those photos are amazing - I especially love the first one (the closeup) So handsome

 

Such a handsome boy!!! Love his eyes! So glad you are getting some good times for memories. Head bumps and scritches dear Gizmo.

 

Gorgeous handsome boy, I love the one of him in his harness sticking his tongue out at us.

 

Ah, I am so sorry to be reading that things are not good with Gizmo. Sending lots of hugs and vines of comfort

 

That one is probably my favorite as well ... although it is a bit fuzzy, but he wasn’t having a retake. Lol

i know ... I couldn’t believe I was lucky enough to get that pic.

 

What a handsome boy! Enjoy your time together!

 

Love the handsome photos! I am so very sorry for the prognosis, and having to make that dreaded decision. Sending lots of hugs and comfort your way!

 

Thinking of you this morning. Much love, tears and hugs.
