Amber thank you.

The brown stuff was coming out of her rectum. And that has stoped.

I took her to the vbts first thing this morn. And the vet just lifeted her tail and took a quick look. He said it was very bad. And he was glad that I brought her in so fast. I told him there was no way i was going to wait untill 4 pm to bring her iin.

I had to leave her tthere. The vet is very nice. He asked me each time if it was Ok if he could lift her by the scruff, and for anything else he would do.

I feel alot better not that she is there.

They are going to knock her out, aww stoned ki ki.
And he said they will "grind it out" urkkk.....

Ugh the bill comes to 215.0, and the bill from the emerg vets was 188.00.....

But I know that she needs the care.

I am so sorry to hear that one of her wounds have become infected!!
Glad you have taken her to the vet immediately to have it taken care of..

Maybe you can have the vet double check regarding the pyometra ? JUST TO BE SAFE??

Oh, I can imagine! If it was me, I'd be a NERVOUS WRECK, worrying myself to death and bawling my eyes out!! I'd be driving the vets crazy with my calls too for updates. Grin.

(That's what I did with one of my old cats when I had to take her in and had to leave her for a week there due to her having CRF. I called everyday in the morning and afternoon AND also stopped by on a daily basis to check on Sunniday before I finally could bring her back home. I could tell sometimes the vets were a bit put out with me. However, they understood because she was my baby!)

Hang in there. PLS keep us posted.

Sorry to hear the wounds are infected. Cat bites are notorious for causing abcesses and infections. I hope Bast gets better real soon!

Well I just heard from the vet...

The infection is worse than even he thought.
He said he has never seen anything as bad from a cat bite...

The infection has spreadal the way to the tp of her tail and towards her back.

As of today she has a 50/50 chance of living...

Well I just called the vets. She is doing much better this morning! She is up and walking around and eating!

Thank you guys for all your help!

The woman that answered the phone scared me though. Shs asked my name and I gave it. And she was like. "Oh... Sarah.. can you hold on a min?"

And she sounded very hesitant to answer my question if Bast was doing better. The vet got on the phone and at first he sounded put off.....

I was like "DId Bast die"?

He laughed and told me she was doing much better. She has to stay longer of course. But oooooooo I am soooo happy!

I was so worried that before the vet even got on the phone I was almost in tears!

I know when I go see her later that I will cry, but this time it will be from being happy! YAY! YAY! YAY!

THAT'S WONDERFUL!!!!!!
:flash:


I would've gotten NERVOUS also if I had gotten that kind of response from my vet!!


Continuing to send Bast "GET WELL" vibes!! Hang in there.. Maybe when u go, maybe u can bring something old of urs- old sweats or something that has your smell so she can still smell u - that helps cats to have familiar smells.. You might have already done this but I thought I'd suggest it anyway.

I'm so happy Bast is doing better, poor thing, what a time she's had! Good job on getting her to the vet so quickly once you noticed the infection was not looking right.

Thanks for posting her progress.

Whitedragon-

It's easy for us to look back on events and think what we SHOULD've done instead due to having foresight. Don't beat urself too much regarding this. The important thing now is that you've learned from this experience.

If you keep her indoor, then you won't have to worry about her getting attacked again, etc..

I don't think she will be home any time soon.

I went earlier and spent 2 hrs with her. As soon as she saw mr she started porring, and didn't stop the whole time!

She look nad acts like the Bast of old, and that is a great relief!
