I've gotten 3 so far from LSD, TI and JS.

I am lying in bed crying, both over Esteban and strangers over the Internet helping out Esteban.

Thank you all so much!

Will post a receipt tmrw when I go in to see him. I put a $1000 deposit down before leaving.

10am Esteban Status:

18 hours post Lily ingestion we know the following things:

1) The white flowers in the bunch were Peruvian Lilies, which are not actually Lilies. While still mildly toxic to cats, if Esteban were to have eaten a whole bunch, he'd have some wicked diarrhea and not much else. He definitely ate some, but since they're not true lilies, that's actually good news.

2) The morning Vet who called me was describing how Esteban was fighting her and "giving her sass mouth" and I could hear him yelling at her. She said that those were really encouraging signs, since lethargy would be bad.

3) He keeps peeing so things are looking fine until the 3pm blood/urine panel when we will know more. If he stops peeing, he will gain weight and that is indicative of kidney failure and that's bad.

4) If he doesn't get worse, which is still possible, the vet said he could come home tomorrow. So 2 full days of hospitalization.
Oh thank God.

How does the bill situation look?

Current Estebafinance update.

Here's my receipt of the deposit from last night.



So far I have received just under $600 in donations via paypal

which is amazing! I cannot thank everyone enough. I've gotten donations in currencies I've never even heard of, like the Australian Dollar and the British Pound! I don't know what else to say, but thank you!

I'm going in to visit him this afternoon after the panels.

His tests came back pretty good, they're keeping him until tomorrow morning but they consider him "in the safe zone" now. He was peeing a lot buy still showing signs of dehydration in his gums and skin. They have him on an IV push, but have to wean him off of that, and I should be able to take him home at 9am tomorrow.

He is piiiiiiiiiiiissssed.

they should call it a toxiban treatment in honour of Esteban now. I think I'll pretend that's the reason
