This is my last photo of Harry, taken yesterday. Approximately age 2.5. He took a sudden turn for the worse this am, kept precipitously declining, and was struggling to breathe. He is at peace now. Many of you know this ache. He’ll be in our hearts forever. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof

All tucked in for #catboxsunday #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof

#caturday is better when you learn that your cat’s bloodwork improved. Still not sure why he was so sick or what the future holds, but celebrating some positive news. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof

More tests tomorrow morning at the vet. Hoping for answers. And hope! This little sunshine is inundated with love. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #getwellkitty

Hello #Caturday #cats #catsofbluesky #tortico

Hopefully his body will quit fighting itself and he’ll fully recover. Pursuing more testing and giving him so much love. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #getwellkitty

Big yawn for #tongueouttuesday (her expression captures how I feel a lot lately) #cats #catsofbluesky #tortico

Tonight in weird cookies: harissa tahini. I like trying new and unusual combinations, especially spicy + sweet. I made a few minor alterations (instead of ras el hanout I used a mix of garam masala and pumpkin pie spice). Not bad, but spices are more subtle than expected. #cookies #weirdcookies

#catboxsunday she loves boxes #cats #catsofbluesky #tortico

The bloodwork results weren’t what the vet had hoped to see. The one thing we do know — we will try to cherish every moment we have with him. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #prayers #getwellkitty

An orange floofy cat for your #Caturday #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof

Harry has been home for a week now, after a scary week of multiple blood transfusions and tests. Happy to see him enjoying a favorite spot as he recovers. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #getwellkitty

#catboxsunday So far, he’s recovering ok at home. Praying he won’t have a relapse. Cherishing every day. Thanks for the well wishes. #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #getwellkitty

Thankful to finally have Harry at home again! The vet thinks he has primary immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) (cause unknown). It’s been a scary rollercoaster ride since he was hospitalized on Sunday morning. Continued well wishes appreciated! #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #getwellkitty

My precious orange floof Harry suddenly became critically ill. We welcome your prayers and positive thoughts. He’s been hospitalized since Sunday and is receiving a second blood transfusion now, still awaiting test results. So hard! #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof #whiskerswednesday #catprayers

#catboxsunday He’s more of a basket case #cats #catsofbluesky #orangefloof
