My sister's mountain lion, Apache, has contracted lyme disease and it has advanced to the late stages. He is having a very hard time and may have to be put to sleep. My sister doesn't do well with losing her animals, so if you guys could spare some smoke, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

Here's some pics of Apache:

She's gorgeous. Smoke for the walk we all must take. Smoke for those that we must leave behind.
 
Beautiful animal. Sorry to hear the bad new. Sending out good wishes and hope from Vermont.
 
Smoke and prayers from Reno
 
I cried and mourned the loss of my own cat, though he was much smaller than your sister's cougar. Prayers from Montana.

Here's the update from my sister

Thank you for the prayer chains, they are working! Apache has pulled through the worst of it and is now more comfortable on a narcotic to control the pain. There are no non-steroidal anti-inflamatories available in cats, so we will try steroid treatment if that helps, but we just want to get him over the hump of the severe pain he was dealing with. Then I will be trying some prednisone, and pulling him off the narcotic to see if it works for him. This weekend as soon as Tom is able, we will be knocking him down again for full xrays and bloodwork to see exactly what we are dealing with. I am just praying that it will be fixable.

Thank you again everyone for your support. :)
