No one told Maggie how sick she is. When the vet tech (one of the many she loves brought her in) she started bouncing on her. Then she heard the vets voice (Maggie is blind) and ran to him then we called her and she bounded over to us jumping on DH and then me, then DH, then me. She wore herself out being so excited! The vet tech came in and showed us how to do SubCu which Maggie doesn't mind at all right now and that is good because with her frail condition she is getting 100 cc two times a day.
We brought her home and she bounced right to the backdoor then came in and went straight to her water dish. Made up a good ol' bowl of "gruel" and she ate it like they hadn't been feeding her. Wandered around the living room part of the evening, then made herself at home in her bed. We know she is on borrowed time because her values are still extremely elevated and it is very unlikely subcu will bring her down but last night was a gift.
Thank you all for the support. Most of my family has been there but at the same time think we are crazy for fighting for her. My husband's stepmom yesterday told me we should put her to sleep. My mom just reminds me that my Pawpaw let his cat suffer.
