It had spread to other parts of his body so it was too late for a recovery.. I made the heartbreaking decision to have him put down. I was with him to the very end.. I am sure he was greeted by Chin Chin and my other pets on the other side of the rainbow bridge :)  I am posting photos of Cruiser here on my blog..&lt;br /&gt;As for my painting, I am going to be working on memorial paintings of Cruiser and Chin Chin.. I am also going to work on some pet portrait ornaments as well...&lt;br /&gt;Sorry for disappearing on everyone :(  I will be posting more as time goes on :)&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for following and God Bless!&lt;br /&gt;Michelle&lt;br /&gt;xoxo&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6327915209506023222-4962646323118880471?l=petportraitsbymichelle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petportraitsbymichelle.blogspot.com/feeds/4962646323118880471/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://petportraitsbymichelle.blogspot.com/2009/09/recap-of-last-few-months.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6327915209506023222/posts/default/4962646323118880471'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6327915209506023222/posts/default/4962646323118880471'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petportraitsbymichelle.blogspot.com/2009/09/recap-of-last-few-months.html' title='Recap of last few months'/><author><name>Michelle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11731308359935971558</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='25' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vSFeCxRJN1I/Se01xDqOwuI/AAAAAAAAAAM/esl25few79I/S220/sheltie2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vSFeCxRJN1I/SsAk1rHCCKI/AAAAAAAAAB4/DwclI5R_vFE/s72-c/Cruz+too.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327915209506023222.post-791373806874431980</id><published>2009-04-23T21:45:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-23T21:47:57.275-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Well, Chin Chin is doing MUCH better!

My ex bf (we are still friends)  called me up and said his cat was really sick.. So, I went to his house to take kitty to the vet.. She has been a outdoor cat (not to happy about that but she won't be outdoors anymore!)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:trebuchet ms;" &gt;When I first saw her, she was cold, wet, and VERY jaundice :(&lt;br /&gt;I thought it was the end for her.. Chin Chin is around 10 yrs old :(&lt;br /&gt;I rushed her to the vet where they did a FELV/FIV test.. It was negative (THANK GOD!!) Next was a CBC profile.. She did have some elevated lvls with kidney and liver but they think she is going to pull through..&lt;br /&gt;I am giving her subcutaneous iv fluids and steroids for the jaundice.. Hopefully she will pull out of this to live a few more years!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:trebuchet ms;" &gt;I will be posting pics of this adorable kitty!
