I'm really worried about Katie and will be calling the vet in a few hours as soon as they open. As many of you know, my sweet senior girl, who's 17, had a dental cleaning last week and seemed fine afterwards. No problems with her appetite. Blood panel before her dental indicated slightly elevated BUN normal creatinine. Other levels okay. Vet says very early stage renal failure. Yesterday, she barely ate and, last night, she didn't sleep with me. This is the first time I can remember in 17 years (except for when I've been out of town) that she hasn't slept with me. I found her under the bed in the spare room this morning. Took a lot of coaxing for her to come out. She doesn't seem lethargic, but won't eat anything this morning. Offered her several different kinds of very smelly wet food and she just turned away. The other night I posted on Facebook about how I caught her trying to steal the toppings off a pizza I'd ordered. Tried tempting her with leftovers this morning and she wasn't interested. That's a first. Something definitely isn't right with my my sweet girl. I don't think a visit to the e-vet is necessary at this point, especially since our own will be opened soon, but you can bet I'll be calling right at 8 a.m. Please send vibes for Katie. This isn't like her at all.
