   Hello

   Please can I ask for white light and prayers for me and Sultan?
   Sultan is my 18-y/o cat, he lives with my parents, he's the cat I grew up with. He has kidney failure and has recently contracted a chest infection. The antibiotics aren't being as effective as hoped yet. His weight is down to 3kg. Also I haven't seen him since April because of a family arguement. My mum has let me know things are not looking good for him, and I am hopeful that they will let me see him this weekend.
   Please can I get prayers, white light, anything else going that Sultie firstly picks up and recovers, and secondly that I get to see him at the weekend.
   My parents are apparently going on holiday for most of October (and they aren't cancelling over him despite saying how much they adore him) so this is very likely my last chance to see him. I don't want my baby to die alone in a cattery cage and I really don't know what to do. Sultan and I were so close, I really was his best friend, I am sure he must miss me as much as I miss him. My mum used the emails about him, and to my reply asking for peace between us and a chance to move on, to try to hurt and insult me further, so there's not much chance of a family reconsiliation either. I'm so lost, hurt and confused just now, I just want to see Sultie and make it better, but I know I can't.
   Thanks for any prayers and white light.

   Oh, how terrible for you. You must be so unhappy. I wish there was something magic I could do to make things better.

   Do you have siblings who could let you know which cattery Sultan is in while your parents are gone? Do you think you could possibly get them to let you keep him while they are gone? If you know what vet he goes to, maybe the vet could suggest that Sultan would be better off with you than in a cattery.

   For his sake, and your peace of mind about him, try one more time to work things out with your parents. Even if it means swallowing some bitter pills, it would be worth it to visit your kitty. If it's only a temporary truce, at least you would get to see your baby.

   I would have him here in a second except that the whole arguement kinda started with something related to that. Also, if he is needing medication or regular care during the day, I can't give him it because I have to be out at work. The emails to my mum asking for peace were a bit of a last-ditch attempt to sort things out (we can't talk because she won't stop insulting me and shouting, whereas I won't lower myself to responding to her or challenging her on her behaviour, because it's pointless). To be honest, I suspected the truce, if we'd been able to reach one, would only have held long enough for me to see the cat, but now I worry she'll take the chance to try to kick off a fight again. If she lets me see him. I just want to see Sultie and hug him and say bye without it being a shouting match :(.
   And yes, very unhappy with everything.

   oh my goodness what a terrible situation..are there any friends that could help? Neighbors even, just for that short while? It sounds like you love Sultan very very much..hopefully there can be some kind of "cease-fire" due to the circumstances?

   ((METSA)) Honey, I am sorry to hear about Sultan and your issues with your parents. Of course you and Sultan have all my prayers, postitive thoughts and white light I can muster. I hope you can see him, hold him and love him.

   I think Dorie's advice is sound, taking someone along who can take the heat off you and politely distract your mother while you concentrate on your baby. Poor Sultan. I hope that he makes it! but if not, I hope that you can see him and love him to say goodbye too -- sending healing energies and positive thoughts for you and your baby that you get to spend time together. {{{Hugs}}}

   Metsa, *tears in my eyes while reading your story* {{hugs}} I do hope that you will be able to spend some time with Sultan. Prayers and white light to you, Sultan, and your mom. When you get a chance to see Sultan, try to spend some time just with him. If your mom starts in with accusations and yelling, be the better person and let it go. Be calm and remember you are there for Sultan.

   I hope you have a chance to see Sultan. And I especially hope that Sultan will be boarded at the vet's while they're out of town.

    Taking someone with me would be good, if I get the chance. Mum's made it clear my partner of nearly 7 yrs is not welcome in the house (the fight had nothing to do with him, she just seems to have decided he must be involved. They got on fine before and he's even been encouraging me to see if we can make up, at least until she started to blame him) so i doubt she'd let anyone else in that she didn't know. I am not interested at all in getting into a fight with her, tbh I'll let her call me all the names she likes if I can see Sultan. Thanks for all the support, I'll let you know what happens!

    Metsa..I'm sending Prayers and White Light that you and Sultan will be reunited and that he remains well. I'm so sorry that your relations with your family are so strained. Life is too short for the kind of pride that tears at those bonds between you. Praying real hard for you all. {{{Hugs}}}

    I am hoping that perhaps you can care for Sultan while your parents are away if it's possible for you. purrs.

    Well I saw him and got a chance to cuddle him, hug him and talk to him. He is beyond thin - you can feel every kink in his spine and every rib. He is also really struggling to breathe, he is so congested with his infection, except for when he's purring when he sounds totally normal.
    As for my parents, Dad seemed genuinely pleased to see me, jumped up to give me a hug when I arrived and left, chatted on like normal. Mum and I both pretended nothing had happened for the day, bit stilted and cold between us, but no fights, no insults. I might not like her still but I do respect her for letting me see him in peace, and I'll always be grateful for that. We both walked on eggshells but it worked for the day.
    Sultie is still himself, purred as soon as I touched him, came out to see me after a while (he was under my bed, in his safe place, so I crawled in to him) and ate some food from my fingeres. But he's certainly very ill. But I saw him and he's still my baby.
    Thanks for all the support, I really felt it and needed it today when I was heading there! (hugs)

    I'm so glad that you got to see him without arguments from Mum.[[Hugs]]

    Metsa, sorry, I've only just seen this thread. I'm really pleased oyu were able to see Sultan, and even more pleased that things with your Mum didn't kick off while you were there. The reaction from your Dad sounds very encouraging - maybe in time you can work it all out? I hope so. And Sultie was obviously pleased to see you! Lots of {{{hugs}}} from south of the border, email or call if you ever need to. xx
