super izzy!

i took izzy to the vet today.

i gave her 1/2 of a acepromazine 2 hours before, and it didn't seem to phase her one bit.

so i had to trick her into the carrier with a tiny pea size glob of smelly wet food. once in, she was a terror, meowing in a low loud tenor, and thrashing about.

fortunately, the car came right away.

i was 30 minutes early for my appointment, and only had to wait 10 minutes before the vet saw me.

i left the room, and it took 3 people to get her out of the carrier, and even then she escaped.

from the waiting room, i heard loud thuds, and crashes (thats my izzy!) as she tore up the examination room.

we had discussed what measures to take with her, and when they called me back in, she had been sedated. totally out of it.

she got x rayed, and didn't see any bladder stones, which is a good thing.

the vet said the bladder felt thick, which could be a sign of chronic infection. they drew blood, i want to be sure her kidneys are doing ok. and she was bone dry, couldn't get a drop of urine out of her....

so they gave me a 12 day supply of baytril and hopefully there will be a change.
