When the nurse carried Lewis out of the hospital area, it was to the same room where I last saw Thomas and it brought back such sad memories. I hope that Lewis can continue to fight this awful illness. I am still worried, as Thomas rallied round initially and then just deteriorated so fast he could not be saved. I hope Lewis will be OK and I'm so grateful for all your good wishes and prayers which give me hope and comfort.....xxxxxx

I visited Lewis tonight at the vets and they had put him on a drip today because he hadn't eaten or drank. His temperature was normal 101.5 degrees F and he feels nice and cool but his white blood cell count is higher than it should be. He was overjoyed and was purring and rolling on his back. They still don't know what is wrong but I think he is a bit better than yesterday.

Hello everyone. I have just had phone call from vets. Lewis's temperature is now 103F so it has come down from yesterday and they have said he must stay in. Lewis is still very poorly but has managed a little bit of food and has had a drink. He has not used his tray so they are a bit concerned about that. I will keep you all posted with any news.....Greta x

Thank you so much everyone for your kind thoughts. It is just after 9.30pm Sunday 19th and I have just phoned vets surgery. Lewis has had another blood test and most things are OK but nurse says that one of the results is raised?? He is comfortable and not shaking but hasn't eaten anything. I feel so helpless.....It's a nightmare!!!!

This is just before I put Lewis in the cat basket to take him to the vets and he didn't even realise I took the photo, that's how ill he is. I had a few minutes before setting off as the vet had to be called from home and it took her half a hour to get in .....I am so frightened for Lewis...

Lewis is really ill again. He started to shiver and tremble and is so listless. I rang the vets and they said to bring him in straight away as an emergency so he is there now. The vet is putting him on different antibiotics and he may need to be on a drip if he won't eat or drink. His temperature is 104.9F. I am out of my mind with worry after what happened to my beautiful Thomas......
