Bobber (Bobbie) is 10 years old and I have had her about 10 months. When I got her she was in terrible shape, smelled like her body was failing. Vet thought she might have cancer but all levels were normal and all diseases were negative. She recovered quite well.
She got put in the vet last night. I was on vacation for 12 days and I had someone coming over and taking care of the cats. On Friday I noticed her toe nail was pointed in a weird direction and took her to the vet. Somehow, possibly one of my other cats, she had a puncture wound in her foot and it got infected so they drained it and put her on antibiotics.
Yesterday she was acting SO off. I was gone for part of the day, when I got home she wouldn't eat even treat treats or canned cat food, which are her favorites. She stayed away from me, almost hid, and she is usually a huge lover. She went on the carpet. She was swaying back and forth. Her breathing was off and I took her in.
Her liver numbers are high, she is dehydrated. They think the infection spread throughout her body. She is on antibiotics and a steroid (I believe they continued the steroid). They were able to feed her an ounce of food put she spit up a teaspoon. She is looking around and laying on her favorite blanket.
Does anyone have any idea what her chances are. The vet said she wasn't in good shape but hopefully since she was acting fine on Friday (she ate, was loving, and slept) we caught it in time. Has anyone had something like this happen? Please pray for her. She is a fighter!!
