I posted here about Luna's ordeal at the vet office yesterday, but the story continues.
After we've been home for a while, Luna started begging for food, and I gave her some Hill's Oral Care (her favourite treats) and she ate them, but she couldn't keep them down.
Several hours later, when it was bed time for me, I brought out the bowl with the girls' supper, and I gave them Hill's i/d (dry food) this time, because Luna also has to deal with diarrhea (most likely from the antibiotics she takes for her UTI). Usually Luna and Lily share that bowl, and they eat one after another, but this time Luna ate and ate and wouldn't let Lily near the bowl, she must have had a ravenous appetite. When Lily came closer, Luna would growl and paw at her, something she usually never does over her food.
Of course it didn't take long until she threw up again - really a lot this time! But right after that, she went back to the food bowl and wanted to eat again. I put the bowl away, and from that point on, Luna really acted strange:
She sat there and stared at the point where the food bowl has been, for hours and hours! Sometimes she would jump into my bed or scratch the door (she knows this annoys me), she really turned into a little tyrant. But most of the time, she just sat there and stared as if she wanted the bowl re-appear telepathically. The pupils of her eyes were wide, and when she sat in a certain position, her left foreleg was kind of twitching every couple of seconds. Really weird.
Needless to say, I worried myself to death and I didn't get much sleep last night.
At dawn, she finally laid down and rested, and before I left for work, I gave her Hill's i/d (wet food), This time, she kept it down, and she seems to be more of herself tonight. I already discussed her behaviour with my vet because I feared she might have had a stroke, but my vet suggested to wait one more day and see if this continues (also, she hopes we will have the results of her blood test tomorrow). Could be that she was just sort of drugged from the anaestetics and that's why she acted so strange.
Poor girl!!

Some hours ago, we had a nice grooming session. I brushed her and she enjoyed it soooo much, she was purring and gave me headbumpies, and she was so sweet and loving.
