I thought everything was getting better, but...

My family's cat is in intensive care. Today I came to my grandmother and saw how the cat was suffocating. Literally can't take a breath. According to the family, she started feeling worse yesterday, but today was some kind of peak. Without thinking twice, we put the cat in the car and we are at the on-call veterinary clinic. She had fluid accumulated and squeezed her lungs so much that it caused pain when inhaling

you can say that hey, this is not your cat, she is the one I raised from birth. she is my cat's daughter, she was the weakest of all. i fed her, fighting for her life. that's why i gave her to grandma. yes, 13 years is a big age for a cat, but i'm not ready to let her go. she is like my child

I'm genuinely scared. I'm scared that they'll call me with bad news. I'm just scared. The preliminary diagnosis is heart failure, which caused problems with fluid. Everything else is normal according to the tests.

It's sad…
Now I will try to calm my thoughts and nerves and go to bed with the hope that in the morning I will hear good news

and so, now I am in a calmer state and can describe what happened over the last day!

The cat has a precise diagnosis - heart failure. The fluid that was accumulating in the body had to be removed surgically, but everything went well. She is breathing deeply again and her lungs have opened up and are functioning well.

But such a diagnosis is a difficult and long path and no one gives any guarantees. They prescribed a lot of medicines and injections and allowed us to take her home. In a week we will have a visit to a cardiologist for a detailed study of the heart, as well as a repeat x-ray to see how quickly the fluid is accumulating. Her life will depend on these results, literally.

I really hope that we can give her a few more years of life..we are doing everything in our power
