Sierra's internal medicine specialist appt.

Oh Stephanie i'm so please Sierra is back to her normal self! And your right she is special

My fingers are crossed that this vet can come to your home because it will make a huge difference not only for Sierra but for you as well

Glad to hear that Sierras appetite is returning!

Yes, Susan, this will make a huge difference for us!

Thank you, Sam!

how perfect would this be if this vet would come and make housecalls - oh Stephanie I surely do have my fingers crossed and my thoughts are with you both. Please let us know what the vet says when she gets a chance to call you. What a load of your mind if this could be possible..

yes Sierra certainly is special to all of us as well

so pleased to hear that she is back to her normal sweet happy self Stephanie - how pleased you must be - please give her a big hug and kiss from her Aunty Dan

Lots of love to Aunty Dan from Sierra and her Mommy!

Hey Girls.. I am so happy to hear that Sierra is doing well. Wishing you both a happy day

Oh Stephaine, I'm so sorry to hear about Sierra's horrible vet appointment. It broke my heart to read about how Sierra got sick and pee'd on the table. How awful. But, I'm very glad to hear she has recovered now and is feeling better! That's great news for you and Sierra. I sure hope you find a vet that can make housecalls, boy I would certainly prefer that too!

For the first time, I've had time to read through this thread - Stephanie, you are doing a marvellous job with your dear little cat, please don't beat yourself up about taking her to that vet, you had little choice by what I've read. It's the vet who needs to do a bit of thinking. Gosh, it makes me appreciate the vet I use more and more when I read something like that! You know, when I moved to this area, I asked the person with most pets which vet she used, and it's a good one. They will make housecalls to stressed cats, dogs, anything, and they don't charge the earth for it either. It's a rural area though, so they are used to coming out to see to farm animals; I expect it would be different in a town.
I do hope Sierra gets over her traumatic visit very soon, I'm sure she doesn't blame you for it, she was probably just very glad that someone she trusted was with her throughout the experience. One of mine always hides her face under my coat in the vets, I think they like the reassurance of a familiar person.

Sue

Lauren, thank you so much for your love and friendship!

Lisa and Sash, thank you for caring so much about us! I will certainly let you know what I learn about Vets who make housecalls. So far, I've learned there really aren't many who will!

Thank you for your encouragement, Sue! Sierra and I sure wish we lived near you where we could have such a personal relationship with our Vet who would cheerfully come to our home!

Aw, I wish Miss Sierra a tummy-upset free Christmas, and weekend! Time for her to have a rest from that!

Next time you can brave the vet, or find one to come to you, maybe you should get some Reglan to have on hand for times like this. Becky

Stephanie,
It does mention that slippery elm bark syrup can be used as a treatment for stomach acid...won't hurt her. tanya's site had the recipe, and you can find slippery elm bark powder at a health store (or plain in capsules that you then open up to use the contents for making the syrup).

Just a thought.

Aw I'm sorry Miss Sierra has an upset tummy... I hope it gets better soon for her to enjoy her yummy Christmas meal with you!

I too wish Miss Sierra a tummy trouble free Holidays !!
