Good news on Andy!!!

Okay, so heres an update. Andy has not been able to use the bathroom yet on his own and he is still in pain. the doctor elected to not leave the catheter in due to him peeing after a small flush, but the urine was as thick and red as tomato juice. he wasnt getting any better so I had him run some bloodwork, which is alot of money but its necessary and the results came out not so good. His CRE and BUN is extremely high, meaning there are toxins in his bloodstream from not being able to go anywhere else and we have no idea if the kidneys are going to run it through and clean the blood or shut down due to the high level. the doctor said he is going to Express the bladder(get it out by squeezing it I believe) and he is going to call later to tell me about it. his tissue is inflamed and it's to the point he cant get the kidney stones out. he is on as many anti inflammitorys as he can get and now we are just playing the waiting game. The doctor said that by his bloodwork, he is in critical condition and that if i wanted to take him to a place with more things that they could do surgery wise(theres not really anything to do) then I should go immedietly but it would cost tons of money and he said all of the money in the world wouldnt really increase his chances. he has about an 85 to 90 percent chance of not making it but that is just for the moment and we will know tomorrow. I got to visit with him and snap some pictures to show all of you my handsome, strong baby and prayers, repost, and hope would be wonderful. I thank you all for your support during this, it means so much to me that so many people care about a cat they hadn't even met, who is my entire world. I appreciate you all greatly and I want to let you know I love all of you so much. I promise to keep you updated.

If you would like to see some videos or some pictures, you can go to my instagram Spilt_tea_and_cravats , which is where its easiest to post since it doesnt take much internet and where I live I dont get good service at all. [Third time making this post bc of how bad my service is.]

It's a public account and it was used for my art but anyone can click on my story or my story highlight titled 'helping my baby Andy' where I posted the pictures of him when i went to go see him this afternoon.

He was going to the bathroom by himself a little bit and was doing much much better so the doctor finally told me I could take my baby home where we can give him some much needed TLC. I had work today unfortunately so my mother went to go and get Andy but she stopped by my work and let me see him and as soon as I did. I started bawling my eyes out in joy. M wonderful sweet baby is finally home where i can pet him and hold him and give him hugs and kisses and all of the love he deserves. When i have a bad day at work i can remember I am doing this for my baby, and that all will be well when I get home, as I get to see him and have him cheer my spirits right up. Once I got home and he saw me, he started purring greatly and was so happy to see me, meowing when I said his name and letting me pet him and hold him.

I want to thank all of you so much for this. It means the absolute world to me to for my baby to be home so early and quickly and not be weighted down by the large vet bill.

I've gotten so much encouragement and stories of other kitties wishing andy luck and donations like crazy. One person, who shall remain anon, sent in 300 which covered Andy's bloodwork by itself. Everyone who shared and sent prayers and donated, I want to tell you,

Thank you

You mean the entire world to me. You are saviors and beautiful and amazing people who are absolute heroes. Every little thing helped greatly.

Now I know the vet bill is paid for and done for now, but we still arent done yet. He has a few more follow up appointments and he will need to be on a special diet for the rest of his life. I plan on keeping the GoFundMe open for these reasons. Incase anyone still wants to donate and give him some of the food that will make sure he will NEVER go through this again, possibly buy him some cat toys, a good scratching post because lord knows he needs it for our poor furniture and anything else Andy related. Also. If you are interested at all. I plan on starting a new blog for Andy. Cute pictures and updates and everything to go around on this chunky boy and his best friend Cinnamon. It shall be called Andy's place, where we have many friends who would like to see Andy, many pets who need help just as we did, cute cat pictures, picture of your own kitties and doggies and birbs and even the boop snoop(snek). Spreading joy and wholesome memes and some good kitty pictures(or cursed pictures. I dont mind) and in my bio there shall be a link for Andy's donations box. And any other cute animals you can help or fund.

If it will upload, I have a video of me[sorry if I look so bad, I just got off work] and my adorable baby. Sorry if my voice sounds so childish, I assure you I'm 18. I'm just overemotional for my pretty kitty.
