Marty Man is an alumni who has been adopted by two lovely humans who have given him an amazing life! After all he has been through, he truly deserves all the good things. And boy, do his dads make sure that happens!

Banana 🍌 our cutie little one-eyed ambassador!

Black cats tend to have a bad reputation, so today is a day to celebrate them extra✨and in our opinion give them all the extra treats too!

🍌Banana update🍌

Guys, I am so sorry that it has taken me so long to give everyone an update about Banana. It has been a really busy few weeks for me! For good reasons.

However, I have some fantastic news to share about him! His lab work came back, and all of his kidney values have decreased. Mainly his creatinine, which went from 5.6 last month to 3.5. He has also been putting on a little bit of weight!

What does that mean now? Well. We are basically still taking it day by day. We don’t the status of that kidney stone, we don’t know if he has any sort of cancer still, and he still does have kidney disease and high out of normal range values.

His vet recommended bloodwork in 1-2 months, but I would like to repeat in 1 month to see where we are at. That way, we can decide what the best course of action is. Should he stay on pain medication or not. Should he get fluids again or not. All of those things are things that need to be taken into consideration.

Right now, he still isn’t very symptomatic. He has hardly thrown up, still has a great appetite (he is loving being off of his special diet), no issues in the litter box and overall seems like a happy little Nanny.

He loves all the treats, the snuggles, and purrs like crazy. Right now, my heart is happy 💜

🍌Banana update🍌

I’ve been a little slow to update everyone, because quite honestly it has taken me a little bit to process. Banana was diagnosed with kidney disease in May and his kidney values have rapidly increased since then, but more recently skyrocketed from May until now and it didn’t make sense why when he hasn’t been symptomatic other than losing weight rapidly, which again didn’t make sense.

His ultrasound showed a kidney stone that is causing a blockage in his left urethra, which explains why his kidney values have gone so high. The vet compared him to a human needing a kidney transplant or dialysis. His kidneys simply aren’t able to work. Eventually they will shut down.

The options are a surgery that would cost $10,000 to place a stent to bypass the kidney stone. This isn’t a guarantee, is very invasive, and requires a lot of after care. We could remove the kidney, however his right kidney is enlarged and having kidney disease prior, his kidneys are clearly not working properly so we cannot rely on the other kidney to do compensate. Or we do supportive care at home.

So what now. Banana is a hospice cat. I have opted to do supportive care and keep him as comfortable and happy for as long as his little body will allow. There is no time frame. He has a repeat bloodwork appointment 10/2 so we can see again where his kidneys are at and go from there. He is free to be off of his special diet. I am doing subcutaneous fluids every few days, he is on pain medication and a muscle relaxer for the stone.

I am relieved to share he still isn’t symptomatic. He has his appetite, he is still stealing treats from Moosa. No other symptoms as of right now. I am keeping a close eye on him though, because I most certainly don’t want to wait until he is in incredible pain and suffering. His comfort is my main concern.

He is going to get all the treats and snacks his little heart desires, lay out in the sun on the patio as much as he wants, and I’m going to get all the Banana snuggles 💜
