Yup! They're going in tomarrow! Screw this, even though they are acting okay its still freaking me out!! The poor things, I just cant help but to think its got to be something horrible... My luck is so bad that I just know its going to be something fatal! I know that sounds bad, but I have almost lost faith completly. I keep trying to get new cats because I love them, but if this is something bad and something happens to them, I just dont think I can turn the other cheek again. My Heart still hurts from the last 3 that died in 2007, having another loss would be devastating! Maybe Im just a jinx for kitties and its gods way of telling me not to have any!Originally Posted by Pookie-poo
Just below the ribs....liver on the right side, spleen on the left side. Below the spleen and liver are the kidneys, bilaterally. It usually take someone who knows what they're feeling, to palpate a normal spleen, liver or kidney. I'd say a trip to the vet would be a good idea.
Yup, you're totally right! I took them to the vet today to find out that Eek only had a bump because his Kidney swelled up from the metacam, and apparently since I know what organs feel like, I can feel them!Originally Posted by saya
you poor thing
chin UP lady.
you're freakin out, get a hold of yourself!!
the bumps definitely need to be looked at, yes. but it really could be nothing.
did they have stitches there at some point? sometimes they get bumps where the body hasn't absorbed the stitches from the inside yet...
at any rate you gotta keep your chin up for those babies.
