Update on Holly and Noel the Dogs

From Hallie:

Just wanted to send an update. I sent in prayer requests for my two dogs, Holly (a golden retriever) and Noel (a chihuahua) back in August (http://prayersforourpets.blogspot.com/2011/08/prayer-requests-for-holly-and-noel-dogs.html). Holly, who turned 8 in September, had to be put to sleep tonight. Her mouth cancer had grown to the point she was unable to eat and the pain pills weren't doing much for her. She died peacefully and quickly, with her head in my lap, as my mom, brother, and I surrounded her and loved on her for her final few moments of life. Please pray for us as we adjust to life without our sweet girl and start the awful grieving process. Also, please keep my 14 year old chihuahua Noel in your prayers as well. She has had some health scares while we were battling Holly's cancer and her age is against her when dealing with her health issues. We are really hoping not to lose our two girls back to back, so please pray that Noel will become healthy again, so that we aren't having to lose both of our sweet dogs, who are precious members of our family, within a short period of time.

Thank you!

Please keep Hallie in your prayers as she suffers the loss of her beloved Holly and for little Noel.

Prayer Request for Ursula the Cat

From Evelyn:

My beloved 10 y.o. black cat, Ursula has been missing for over a week.
3 different animal communicators have said the same thing - she is
hiding and very frightened and that she is very close by. She has
renal failure and being away from food, water and supplements is not
good for her health. My prayers are for her to be brave and strong
and not be afraid to find her way home. She also has a job at home to
help me look after and entertain our dog and I need her help.
Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of my (human) mother's death and 3
other beloved cats died this past year. My poor heart cannot take
much more. Thank you.

Updated Prayer Request for Lily the Dog

From Ann:

Thank you so much. We got her blood results today and her white blood cells is really really low. I spoke to her vet in Manila and she said lily is in critical condition. Our biggest problem is, we are in the province and they dont have hospitals here. They only have clinics and the "vet" are just OJT students so they dont know anything. (im from the philippines by the way). Our vet from Manila gave us antibiotics and we are praying shes going to react positively to it. That is our only option as of now. Please continue helping us by praying. My daugther is only 6 years old, and dont know if she can handle loosing her sister "lily" at this early stage. The two are best friends... Thank you so much for all your prayers. We really appreciate it.:)

Sad News - Mystee the Cat

From Stephanie:

It's with a very heavy heart that I have to report that we laid my sweet Mystee to rest this past weekend. She was doing very poorly. I prayed to St. Martin last Thursday to let Mystee show us a sign when it was time to let her go. On Friday, about 2 hours before her appointment with the vet where we were going to get her another anti-inflammatory shot to hopefully give her another few weeks with us, my husband just happened to be sitting with her and was able to look into her mouth as she yawned and he said "we have to put her down, it's gotten so much worse that it's not fair to her." We quietly said goodbye to our sweet angel Friday afternoon. I will truly miss her but she will always be in my heart.

Please say a prayer for Stephanie as she mourns her beloved Mystee.

Updated Prayer Request for Mollie the Dog

From Haley:

Mollie still needs many prayers. She is having a really tough time fighting IMHA. It is a horrible disease. She had her second blood transfusion yesterday and we have to go back to the emergency clinic tomorrow to have her blood checked. Hopefully she is stable or better yet, doing better tomorrow. I thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, keep them coming our way please.

BTW, I asked Haley what exactly Mollie had: It is immune mediated hemolytic anemia. Her immune system is destroying her red blood cells before her body is able to make more. And her hemocrit level is way lower than it is supposed to be. I really appreciate it!! She seems to be fighting it and feeling a little better.
