Today we have an apointment to find out once and for all what is wrong with Angel and how to fix it. I decided to make a list of everything. Here's what I've got so far... anyone think of anything else I should mention to the vet? Anything I've missed?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Food:
Nutro Max Kitten dry – will NOT eat dry.
Nutro Natural pouches wet
My adults eat
Nutro Max WM & Hairball control
Occasional Friskies canned
Whiskas Meaty Selections & Fancy Feast dry as treats
Always plenty of fresh water available (with ice of course)
She and Flutter get fed alone in a separate room. I often take her aside and feed her completely away from even Flutter. She spits out all kitten dry food now (Would eat it before... not at all now). Won’t touch it. LOVES adult dry food.
Litter:
unscented clumping in genereal areas, scooped several times a day – ALWAYS right after she goes
non-clumping clay in the room I separate them in at night
6 litter boxes for 6 cats
Bed:
During the day, she’s with me wherever I am.
In my office, she’ll sleep either on the windowsill, behind my computer monitor, or on my worktable.
In my bedroom, she’ll sleep on the laundry basket or under the bed
In the front room at night, she’ll sleep on an upholstered chair
Behavior:
Typically very active and playful, but has been quiet the past few days
good appetite – attacks wet food as if she’s never eaten before, refuses kitten dry
Attentive and comes when called
leaks poop constantly, especially when I pick her up
Won’t let me clean her bottom – too swollen and inflamed looking. Imagine it hurts too much for me to touch it, even to attempt to put Neosporin on it.
Other cats:
(here I describe everyone's po... thought I'd dit the descriptions for ya! ;) )
All other cats (both foster and non-foster) are active, playful, good appetites.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did I cover everything the vet should know? I want to make sur she knows EVERYTHING about her habits, where she's been, what she's eaten. EVERYTHING.
Off to bathe her right now. She pooped on herself for the first time today. I don't want to have the vet thinking I let her sit in her own poo now, do I? ;)
