Hi:
Vito spent the night sleeping in my arms - so cute!!! We had lots of little chats in the night and I have a sense of peace about him and what is happening to him - he is such an old soul...and I know he is aware and OK and not suffering despite everything - he is very wise...he will let me know what he wants to do about this...
This a.m. he shocked me by drinking a little water on his own...which thrilled me, first time in 9 days (4 of those days he was on IV fluids) he's chosen to have a beverage.
He used his scratching post for a moment, and even licked 2 licks of milk and one wee lick of tuna...it was SO good to see these positive changes...I felt very encouraged.
But he's developed uveitis from whatever 'disease' he's inflicted with and seems to be quickly losing his sight - his eyes have changed color from green to this muddy-ish brown, and half of one pupil is 'missing'...we'll know more today or tomorrow about whether he has FIP (well, as close as one can have to a diagnosis of that)...but the vet wants him back to the hospital ASAP to have the head of Opthamology see his eyes...because if he does NOT have FIP the eyes are going to be a very big concern...
I'm so thankful for last night with him and that he seemed 'better' this morning, despite how sick he seems to be...it reduces the horror of the past nine days to know he's still my little bobcat...and that he understands what is happening to him...even if I do not.

Bless Vito's heart! We will continue our strong purrs for him. XOXO
oh Vito, such a good job to make your mom a little happier by trying to eat and drink. we is sending out many many purrrrsss to you. and to your mom
We imagine there is something calming about holding a furry after being separated and worried sick over him for days. We hope a vet can find a way to help Vito.
Our mom sed lots of word from da bad word list! She sed she hates Fip, whoever he is and wishes he would stop taking kitties. And if it's not dis Fip guy den she is mad/sad about Vito's eyes, 'cept we know a couple of blind kitties dat are just fine. We sure hope Vito gets better. She sez yoor mom and Piggy are prolly feeling really sad and she started leaking fur dem. Take good care of effuryone Grover.
We're so glad that Vito had some water and food on his own, and especially that he got to sleep with his Mom. Our hearts go out to him, and we're sending pawsitive thoughts to help him along with our purrs and purrayers,
