| Thank you everyone for your sweet comments. I just got off the phone with my vet. I was concerned that she is in a lot of pain because she keeps shaking. He is heading into the clinic and I will be able to pick up some pain meds in about 15 minutes. I took Faith out to see if she could go potty, but she just looked up at me waiting for me to pick her up. I'm really shook over this. I got her a cat crate and put a soft bed in it for her. She looks so sad. Breaks my heart!

| Aww, good to hear that your vet will give the right meds. They really do have to have it with back issues. Yup, the shaking is probably pain. While you're there, you could ask what he/she thinks about heat (heating pad, SnuggleSafe) for the pain. Just try to avoid everything that can stress her bones. Even baths and such can irritate the spine more.

| Ah Connie, I'm so sorry! Poor little Faith...how is she feeling this morning? Did the pain meds seem to help? I'm sending prayers for you and your DH for his surgeries, and for little Faith too. Please give her a gentle kiss for me. Hugs, Bonny

| Thanks everyone! Faith is doing well this morning. She isn't shaking, so I think the meds are helping. It's so hard to keep her confined when I can't be holding her, but I know it's for the best. One day at a time! Thanks for your prayer and concern!

| Sending prayers for Faith and your family. I'm glad to hear that the meds are giving her some relief. Confining these little ones is tough.

| Faith sure isn't walking worth a darn. I only put her down to go potty and she isn't even doing that, but just stands there. The few steps she's taken are very wobbly. Poor baby. I can't wait till she gets better. She is sleeping on my lap right now. Wish I could just hold her all day!
