So Wednesday night we noticed that Princess could not meow. she was pushing out the air but no sound from a normally vocal cat. We rushed off to the emergency vet thinking something was stuck in her throat. They did x-rays of her throat and blood work but had no answers. The vet did say that she had air in her esophagus and her belly but the x-ray didn't show anything obstructing her throat. They wanted to keep her but since she is super fractious i wanted her home where she can relax more. We took her home after borrowing the $650 to pay the bill with no answers. Once home I got her to eat alittle the Thanksgiving morning. We even postponed dinner til today because of her. This morning I took her to her normal vet. They x-rayed her abdomen and she is still full of air. she did have something that could be a blockage but it is hard to tell. The vet recommend an ultrasound and said it would be around $500 and she would find someone that could do it. The also ran another blood test but we won't get results till tomorrow. $650 more for still no answers. The vet called me about an hour or 2 later and told me that the ultrasound can be done but because of the air in her stomach and bowls they will have a very hard time seeing anything. We've decided to just have her x-rayed again tomorrow to see if what could be a blockage moves. She has not eaten since yesterday morning at this point. I'm currently giving her fluids to keep her hydrated. If anyone has any ideas please share!
I have borrowed all the money i can and i am running out of options. We've about to max out our credit cards to try again tomorrow... but can't let my 12 year old baby die. She's just too young. She is my first cat as an adult and I'm not ready for her to go yet. She's been in every apartment and traveled 2,000 miles to Arizona with me.
I'm looking for any help you guys have! any ideas... any prayers...and any donations. I've added a gofundme link. I completely understand if you can not. Please don't bash me this is hard enough....
