lap cat
Last week we started to become concerned about Sally.
I had taken her back to the vets about a week after all the cats were at the studio. She has a slight cough, and I wanted t o make sure she wasn't experiencing any latent symptoms from the smoke.
Her lungs were fine, but they thought she might be fighting some kind of upper respratory irritation, and gave her a 2 week antibiotic shot.
After another week or so, Nancy noticed that she didn't seem to be eating or drinking and had lost a considerable amount of weight.
I was too sick to get to her for a few days, but as soon as I examined her, I took her right back to the vet.
She was back to being just about as skinny as when I first found her! It was alarming.
They ran blood work, took ex-rays, and gave her the once over. Although she had lost significant weight, she was still in good health.
They gave her some fluids and gave me an appetite stimulant to give her.
Larry and I decided to bring her back to the apt. so we could keep a closer eye on her.
She seemed to perk up almost right away!
She's simply THRILLED to be around Larry, and follows him everywhere.
I was afraid the puppy would add extra stress on her, but she isn't even phased!
She seems relaxed and happy, and the good news is she's starting to nibble on her food and drink more.
