We went to see the vet and unfortunately, Arawn the cat is not OK. It turns out that while his blood tests all look great and nothing seems wrong with him at a first glance, his liver is taking quite a beating with his constant refusal to eat anything. The veterinarian was very worried about the very real possibility of liver failure and Arawn had to remain hospitalized. Right now he is being treated and kept hydrated while the exam results for his liver come out. The vet says he can be there for a couple of days at least if his liver turns out fine and he decides to eat soon. But if there is liver damage or he simply won’t eat he could end up staying there for a few weeks.
Nevertheless the vet said Arawn is responding well to the treatment and that while he still hasn’t eaten that it’s perfectly normal for it to take a while. The test results should be available later tonight or tomorrow, and by then we should probably know what to expect. I’ll post a update as soon as I find out.
Bummer… Hope everything gets better soon!
Good luck O. I’ll keep him in my thoughts.
I hope everything works out O
sorry to hear that Arwen is sick… I hope it gets better really soon.
It’s all those pictures of sleek, skinny, airbrushed kitties you have around the house. Arawn has finally lost his self esteem and is trying to fulfill unreasonable expectations for his self image. You need to sit down and have a talk with him, tell him how much you like him for who he is, not what he looks like!
I hope everything turns out well for Arawn. Having your pet hospitalized is really worrying. I was worried sick when a bee stung my kitty, and that’s nothing compared to liver problems. Keep us up to date and let’s pray Arawn will be better
Wish the best for you all! Hopping Arawn get better soon. =*
Poor little guy. Hope all goes well.
I hope Arawan feels better soon.
I hope Arawn gets better soon O.
Hope the poor little guy can beat whatever it is that’s ailing him. Got two hairballs myself and have had many over the years. Never easy seeing them in pain. Feel better Arawan!
I hope Arawn feels better soon.
The teeth of Arawn are alright? A broken tooth was the reason my cat wasn’t fond of eating a while ago.
Gl O and Arawn!
be strong Arawn!
I feel for you O – sick pets suck – damned costly also!
Poor cat…Hope he’ll get better soon :/
I hope the cat that’s brought about some great comedy and obviously been an awesome companion for you gets better.
I wish the best for your cat. The cult of the multi headed towelsnake shall make a grand sacrefice to hsi health!
And by grand sacrefice I mean down several bottles of happy-brew and empty bags of cips and popcorn!
The multi headed towel-snake is a grand deity indeed
At least they have a better idea of what is wrong with him. Hope everything turns out well.
Ojala que mejore rapide y vuelva a casa pronto =)
Arawan get well soon
Poor guy
I’ll be rooting for him <3 I hope it turns out well, at least your vet sounds competent
Poorly kitties, who’d have ‘em? Best wishes.

Hope the kitty is ok.
May want to have his jaw and teeth checked, often cats won’t eat because it *HURTS* and they really can’tt ell you about it.
prayin’ to the kibble god for your kitty, hope all goes well.
Hope all goes ok with Arawn and you get him home soon
I hope everything will turn out fine for you and Arawn as soon as possible. Take care!
Aw, I’m so sorry to hear that! I hope Arawn is okay. Keep us updated!
