Knuckles update
Update: First, thanks to all of you who left comments today. We really appreciate them. So the good news is that the blood tests showed that he doesn't have any of the big diseases, such as feline leukemia, thyroid condition, diabetes, etc. The only abnormality is that he is anemic. So, the doctor is testing for a flea and tic disease. She explained that , although Knuckles doesn't come in contact with fleas or tics in the condo, he could have contracted the disease when he was a kitty in the shelter. I guess the symptoms come back on in cycles. So, she'll get in touch when she knows more.
Bugsy is still waiting for his brother to resume their wild play, but for now we're just having a quiet time over here while Knuckles sleeps.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and for your wonderful thoughts. I'll update when I know more.
hugs, HH

Knuckles, we are sending you purrs.
Whew! That's a big relief. The other can probably be successfully treated with medication. More purrs for Knuckles. ,
We appreciate the update. Continued purrs for Knuckles...We're not sure how that would be treated...iron supplements? Is it the same as for humans?
We B way behind in visiting but we had to stop and say whew, we are glad the tests so far are good and that those flea diseases can be treated so Knuckles can feel better soon...Purring for the K!
Sorry we weren't around to send purrs to you Knuckles. We are glad you aren't too sick. Hopefully the medication will make you feel better. Ask Mom what medication they gave you Knuckles?? Our Lucky turned out to be anemic. So now we are sending lots and lots of purrs to ya. Take care.
Purrs for Knuckles.
Oh no! I am just seeing dis. I so hopes Knuckles is gonna be fine. We are sending our vibes to him and to ya'll as well.

We will keep Knuckles in our thoughts and prayers....have a quiet and relaxing evening, my friends.
Oh dear. Poor Knuckles. I'll purr that he's up and around really quick. It's lonely when the fursibs don't want to play.
Knuckles sweetheart...feel all better right away. Bugsy, he'll be OK, Honey.

That is some good news. I bet Bugsy can’t wait for Knuckles to be back to his wrastling self!! xox
Oh no! We missed one day and look what happens! Big purrs and purrayers fur Knuckles. We hope he gets over this fast. xoxo
Knuckles that is very good news. I have always heard that if you are around the fleas and stuffs as a young'un.. and they carry the bad stuffs ... it can take YEARS to show up. WHEW.
We're sending lots of purrayers to Knuckles! We hope he feels better soon and that they find out what's going on so he doesn't feel bad again!
Oh dear we are praying and sending love!
Licks,
Ruthie
We'll still be keeping our paws crossed until he gets a clean bill of health!
Mega-purrs to sweet Knuckles and we are very happy the yucky stuff was negative!
I'm relieved that the tests ruled out all the biggies. I hope Knuckles is back up to speed soon.
It's STILL scary, even when it's "nothing".

We're purring that Knuckles feels better soon.
I'm so sorry about that. I guess I've missed the other post. Hope all would be well to Knuckles.

Oh no, Knuckles!! I keep purring for you...
Thank goodness it's nothing major. We hope the vet is able to figure things out soon. Take care, Knuckles. We're sending you purrs.
Oh no, we didn't know Knuckles was under the weather. I guess it's good news it is not one of the Big Bad things. If it is what the Dr thinks, can he recover completely?
Please keep us updated.
Drools and licks,
Minnie and Mack
We are sorry you are a little under the weather. We well send some drool your way as we have an over abudence at the hound house right know. Sniffs, The HoundDogs
Bugsy and Knuckles we are still purring hard. I hope you don't have to wait 87 hours for the results...that will be torture.
Hugs to you two and HH
Madi and Mom
We'll continue to hope for a good final report.
Sending lot of purrs to Knuckles !
Hope you will get back to normal in no time !
