First, I can't really express how much your good thoughts mean to me and to Joey also.So I will just say thank you very much.
Well, at least the fight to get her into the carrier went ok. No major wounds, and we didn't play chase around the house. I caught her unaware and she protested and squirmed, but it was quick at least.
I found blood this morning before I took her to the vet and it turns out that she has developed blood in her stool, and it is still diarrhea. She has also been such a good girl. Everytime she needed to go she went to the little box. The only reason I found anything was becasue it stuck to her fur.
The vet said that she is tender in some spots and is really dehydrated. I should have taken her in yesterday, bad Cat daddy.
The vet is going to run some more tests, but she said that it is most likely a blockage of some sort or maybe infalmmed intestines ot bowels. She is going to take some pictures, I think she said it was an ultrasound. She also let me know that since Joey is not moving real fast that she will not have to put under for that. Yea!! They are also going to run a blood panel on her, the vet callde it mini blood panel.
Depending on how she reacts to the fuilds and what they find today I may have to take her to a 24 hour clinic so they can keep an eye one her.
I came home after I left her at the vet and searched the house again and I finally found something that she could have possibly gotten. It was a plant that had some leaves chewed on. Well I spent the next couple of hours trying to find the plant type. It turned out to be a Peperomia, and I looked and it is not toxic to kitties. Thank God. I would have felt a lot worse then I do if it turned out to be bad for cats. I want to put is a plug for the florist that the plant came from, they were fantastic. After I tried to find it on the net, I called the florisit. Not only did they now the deliver from last may, they spent about twenty minutes on the phone with me trying to figure it out. It was a basket that could have had different types of plants. Since we couldn't figure it out, because of my bad descriptions. I asked if I could bring it in and they said sure. I drove the plant down there and that is when we figured it out. If you are in Seattle and need flowers the name is Lawrence the Florist, I know that is where I will be going from now on. I don't know there delivery area, but they are located in Bellevue. They really were great and very helpful.
Well I kept it togther up to now, it just hit me. I am just going to cry for a little while. I know that I am hopefully overreacting, but she is my little girl. Maybe writting it down made it real for me or I was hoping that it would be better news then it was and this was the first real chance I had to think about it. At least I waited until I got what needed to be done first. I will also know more this afternoon, that is good. For now I will make Bob cuddle with me, I don't care if he is in the mood or not.
The good news is she get her nails trimmed, for free even. The vet threw that in for me.
Anyway, once again I appreciate all of the good thoughts and prayers and comfort. There are no other people, that I know of, that would care about my baby girl this much. I really wish that I could put into words how much I really do appreciate it. I would just ask that you continue to keep her in you prayers.
Thank you for reading, and all of your encouragemet. So as a reward another picture of my baby girl. She need to get better soon so she can bring us our towels.
