I wanted to start a new thread so people who are knowledgable about this or who have been through it already could share some helpful advice, comments, opinions, etc.

Update:
She is type B blood and they don't have that available in the hospital so they have to get it shipped overnight from out of state. It will be there tomorrow. Her temp is 105 and they have her on ice. She is getting antibiotics. And she just vomitted what they had been feeding her.

Here is the thread:

I went to see her tonight and got to be with her for about an hour or so. I just held her and petted her. She was very sleepy but he ears still wiggled when I talked to her. Her name is Miss Kitty by the way. :rbheart:

The doctors gave her some kind of anti inflammatory med and it made her temperature go down but she's still very tired and worn out. And more than likely will be like that until she gets the blood tomorow. She's still not eating though. After she gets the blood tomorrow I am going to bring her home. I don't want her to suffer anymore in the hospital and also I can't afford the bill! Im going to watch her for a few days and if she doesn't improve then I will take her to the vet to get put to sleep. But hopefully this blood will help for at least a little while...

My heart goes out to you. I can't imagine what you must be going through and I hope I never have to find out. Good luck.

Thoughts and prayers are with you.  Sometimes the kindest thing to do is to let them go.  So sorry to hear your news.

I'm sorry. It's hard when they are so ill.

She looks very much like my Suzaku. In the last pic she reminds my little one a lot (because Suzaku lacks her right eye). But she looks like a happy and well-loved cat. Sure you will miss her. But there is a time for everything and when the time arrive you must let them go.
