I just got home with Joey, he went right to his food bowl
He still has his IV in his leg and he's not thrilled with that. Unfortunately they have no results back on the urine test yet and his temp was 104, I am so worried about that temp it was 105 on Sunday, it's barely going down
Please still keep him in your prayers we are not out of the woods yet
I'm happy to hear that he is home with you..hope you hear some results soon to find out how to help him..Lots of healing <<vibes>> are still coming from us to Joey.Originally Posted by Bella713

I'm sure he will be much better recooperating at home than at the vets office.... Just make sure to keep little terror Lucia away from him!!!

Here is my sick boy
Poor Joey. At least he looks like he is resting..Get better buddy.
(((((JOEY))))) We love you!!
I am glad that you have Joey at home, maybe that is what he needed.
I am sending more hugs and prayers from Mississippi for you and him and David and the other kitties.
Please keep up updated on how he is doing.

you better start boiling him some chicken Helen.... I think he's sending me messages....wait it's coming through.... yes, he wants chicken....
Seriously though, don't they have some type of "tylenol" for cats....I know real tylenol/ibuprofin will kill a cat, but don't they have something that can reduce his fever?

Poor Joey! I will keep the handsome little guy in my prayers! If you want to help keep his fluids up and lower his temp a bit go to the store and get some Pedialyte (infant electrolyte replacement - the walgreens brand works fine!) give him several dropper fulls every few hours- this will help
/ Also - even though his temperature seems really high for us the normal temperature (rectally) for an adult cat is between 100 - 102.5 degrees ....so while 105 was a bit high - please don't be too terribly worried over that- it was only a few degrees higher than normal. The iv your vet gave him should be helping
The more fluids he keeps in him the better he should do and the more his temp should go down. I'll keep him in my prayers
I am sending may good vibes and prayers to your boy Joey. I hope this is nothing serious and he will be home and healthy soon.

Nikki you are awesome!
So smart & full of wisdom!!!
Awwww bless his little cotton socks look at him
That's a great idea what Nikki said, and failing that you could always make him one from the cereal box like i had to with Rosie when she was spayed
