My mother assisted me today as i took ben and the baybee to the vet today,
for ben's xrays. He was looked over very well by the vet,
and the xray was taken.
Turns out his liver is small- and the vet is suspecting a liver shunt.
He says it could be the reason why he's had colitis- that it was ALL caused by the shunt.
He says there are a bunch of other tests we should do, but first of all, we should do an ultrasound.
Our OTHER vet thinks its a urinary tract infection that's gone up into his kidneys.
And that antibiotics will fix it (which we start tonight).
We hope its the later.
If it IS a shunt- it may not be fixable, or if it is, you have to go to a specialist,
and that's easily over a thousand.
So, in hopes that you kind bloggers could help us out since money is tight-
the price of the ultrasound is 275.
If there is anyway you can help us out-
it would be appreciated so very very much.
So we will leave the donate button up on the side of our blog, if you can help,
that's wonderful, if not, just continue sending purrs and prayers- we appreciate that JUST as much as money,
we need your love and support, we are very worried about our ben.
Mom is terrified of what the ultrasound may reveal.
But it really is the best thing to do.
Both vets were telling us other tests and things that would be great,
Both vets were telling us other tests and things that would be great,
but for all of those, the very best test is an ultrasound.
Until then, we are just waiting and hoping the meds help.
poor ben.

We're sending healing purrrrrss and comforting purrrrayers to poor Ben. We just found out he was feeling poorly.
We chipped in a little, we hope it helps! Poor Ben, we hope he's not in too much pain.
Leave your chip-in up for a while, if you can, as the mom gets paid only once a month and is trying to hang on till October now.
Continued purrs from us right now, though! We'll cross our paws the antibiotics will do the trick.
