So, my mom just called and just got back from the vet (I had to work so she took him for me).
Silas has a 107 degree fever, and was severely dehydrated. The doctor injected fluid, and gave him an antibiotic shot.
I have to give him 1 antibiotic pill a day, along with this paste stuff that is high in nutrients and calories until he starts eating on his own (My mom said he really likes it).
They don't know what is wrong yet, I have to call tonight to get the results of the blood test. I'm really scared? Thats like 7 hours away! Has this happened to anyone else? I know you are not vets, but at least I could be prepared for some of the possibilities. It's not feline lukemia, he was tested for that.
He's only 3 years old! Poor little guy.
Oh, and can cats catch human sicknesses? Like the flu or colds?
