    Aww poor Cole. Hopefully whatever is bothering him will pass soon. It's always so difficult when our babies are sick and can't tell us what's wrong.
    I'll keep him in my thoughts that he feels better real quick.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Well, he is up and about...I didn't see him lying where he had been, and found him in the hallway as if he had just left the litter box. I called his name and he meowed at me - it's always a rising tone "me-OW?" Very sweet and little voice for such big boy. He came to his feeding spot as I carried the bowl there - sniffed but didn't eat. It had just come out of the fridge a few minutes before and I did put it in a new bowl.

    I just heard a short Zoe-Cole skirmish, so I think things are getting better!

    Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers!

    (I wouldn't have posted except Cole never refuses food and has never behaved as he did after throwing up.)

    I hope Cole starts eating very soon so you can feel better. It sucks when they're sick.

    Prayers are coming from us for dear Cole. Here's hoping this passes shortly and he is all well again.

    Oh dear.

    I came home about 5 pm today and there were dense barfed hairballs in two places. The first one especially was quite long. I thought he had pooped outside the box.

    Anyway I cleaned that up. All three kitties got their dinner - Cole even went and stole crunchies from Oscar's dish.

    A few minutes later he threw up all the food...It wasn't digested. I cleaned it up and offered him some evaporated milk mixed with warm water. He seemed interested, but left it alone.

    He just went to the litter box. He seems ok enough. If this happens again at breakfast I am booking an emergency appt with my vet.

    Poor Cole - what's wrong with my baby?

    Ah Cole, you are worrying your Mom!

    Candace, It could all still be related to those hairballs. If he was the one to throw up those 2 big ones, then he was hungry -- and scrarfed down his dinner without chewing, overate and all that came up too. Now his tum needs to rest a bit and with luck he will be fine. You may want to put just a LITTLE in his dish, let him scarf it, wait 10 minutes, a little more. An empty tummy doesn't appreciate a full bowl of unchewed kibble, lol. Praying this is all it is.
