Tiger is having to go to the vets tomorrow

[anakat]

Hope everything turns out OK, and you can get some sleep

 

[sar]

That is very disappointing that they are waiting to send the samples off on Monday!

I'm pleased that Tiger can come home though and stay integrated with everyone!

Continued }}}VIBES{{{ coming to you both!

 

[booktigger]

Have picked her up - didn't see the vet as her results haven't come back, which gives me a chance to get my facts straight before I say anything. She has eaten 3 pouches of RC sensitivity food while there, and they sent her home with 2, but I gave her Whiskas - she has eaten a pouch!! He has also given her Rimadyl (anti-inflam) and Clavesptin (antibiotic - never heard of it though), both appparently palatable, and that has made me happier. She does seem happier in herself .

 

[xocats]

You are taking such good care of Tiger....

Sending vibes that she continues to eat.
How was her fever...did anyone talk to you about what they think her problems are?

 

[booktigger]

Thanks.
Me too!!
Not yet, they are waiting for the FIV/FeLV test to come back.

 

[xocats]

My fingers are crossed that the FIV/FeLV tests come back negative.

Hugs & head bumps for you both.

 

[booktigger]

Me too, as I honestly dont know what we are going to do if it comes back positive for either. Will be next Fri at the absolute earliest before I know, part of me wishes I didn't have so many issues with the inhouse test, as I woudl have known yesterday if that were the case, but if it had been postive, it would have had to be sent off, so pointless. She has eaten some biscuits and had some treats for having her claws cut, so hopefully she will be fine.

 

[booktigger]

WEll, she hasn't eaten all her tea or supper, but they did get something new today for their tea, so hopefully that explains it, as it took the girls ages to eat all theirs too. Then to top it off, Tom hasn't eaten any supper - he even slept through me shaking the biscuit box to dish out Tiger's, that is unheard of!! Sniffed his treat bowl, then went and slept in Ginger's bed - hopefully they will both be fine by the morning.

 

[xocats]

Oh I hope that this is just a simple bug that they caught.
Sadie and Dexter come down with an occasional cold type virus and don't feel well but then it passes and they are OK.

Tom & Tiger....lots of healthy, hungry vibes are on the way sweetie pies.

 

[booktigger]

Thanks - was an odd night, Tom slept downstairs, Pebbles on teh floor, so twice during hte night I had no cats at all on the bed, practically unheard of!! And I have only had one on the bed this morning, very odd for a Sun morning, it is normally lazy morning with me wanting to go and hop in bed!! Pebbles third eyelids are up now as well, so at this rate, i will be taking some time off work tomorrow!!

 

[xocats]

A bed without kitties is no bed at all.

Tiger, Tom & Pebbles will be in my prayers as you sort this out.
Lots of calming vibes coming your way.

 

[eilcon]

Still sending lots of vibes for Tiger and you.

 

[jcat]

I'm still sending vibes your way. You've certainly had a time of it with the kitties!

 

[booktigger]

It certainly isn't!!! I hate not sleeping with so many cats!! Tom is fine today, he is eating normally - ie pinching what he shouldn't, so he may have had some of Tigers meds!! PEbbles is preferring dry food to wet, which is what happened last time she wasn't well.
It certainly has been a bad 10 days - but I did have some good news this pm, so at least I have a smile on my face now!!

 

[xocats]

At least Tom is eating well...

now on with the Tiger & Pebbles problem.

 

[booktigger]

Yep, one down, two to go!!

 

[sar]

Oh you're having a time of it at the moment!

I'm so pleased that Tom is eating again and hope that they all slept with you last night!

Sending continued }}}VIBES{{{ to Tiger and Pebbles

 

[booktigger]

Well, Pebbles doesnt have a temp, anything wrong with her heart or lymph nodes, so the vet said that we basically sit on it for 2 weeks and then recheck her temp etc before doign blood tests. not sure if I am happy with that though, but she is fine in herself.

 

[xocats]

Some potentially serious heath issues have been ruled out.
That is good news but I understand how you feel about waiting to do the blood work.

Even though labs can be expensive, I feel that a full blood panel is one of the first things that should be done when a kitty is showing symptom of illness.
How long has it been since Pebbles had blood work done?

I am glad that she seems to be feeling better.

 

[sar]

I'm glad Pebbles seems to be feeling fine in herself

I can see your concern with waiting two weeks! I would have thought a couple of days would have been more appropriate if you were going to do observations.

More Healthy }}}VIBES{{{ heading Pebbles' way!
