PHEW! I am feeling better all the time! Wished I'd realized this before I went to the vets yesterday, acting like a crying, babbleing idiot! I thought her looking longer was just my eyes but the differance in her face even Rie noticed so two+two! I am slow to connect the dots.. I have not connected the sudden empty bowls to the way Amy looked. To me she was always a "compact" kitty, short bodied and rock soild, now she looks more like Giz, long and sleek.

This could absolutely explaine her noticable difficulty in getting around, bigger body, more weight on weak legs...... (am I grasping at straws that are not there?) soooooo.... next question.. Should I give her the Prednisone or not? 1 daily for 5 days, then 1 every other day until gone (5 more pills)...
