Thread: Ally Cat Updates

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    Been asked by a few people about Ally, and wanted to post an update that I just wrote up for another PT member...

    (Side note: My mom and dad were down here for dinner on a Sunday, and they offered to drop her off at the vet by them, where I had the appointment. I sent her in her large carrier, and with my "Ally" gloves so my dad could get put her back in her carrier from the large crate they had for her overnight).

    Ally did go to another vet for a 2nd opinion, a vet up by my mom and dad. He kept her there for a few days, and then one of the vet techs offered to take her to her place and see she how she would act since there are no other animals there, no kids either. She was aggressive at the office, and while in the cage there, so I don't know what how she'll act with the tech, but I'm not holding my breath.

    They did blood work, but didn't find anything come back as questionable. I didn't think she'd be happy being caged at the vet, and didn't think she'd act very happy while there. I was hoping they'd find something going on when they did the bloodwork, but they didn't. The vet didn't observe any lumps or anything either.

    So far, haven't heard an update from the vet tech. I told them I'd go with their suggestion if they felt there was nothing else to be done, and no medical explanation for her aggressiveness. I'll check in with them later in the week to see how things are going with Ally and the tech since it's been a few weeks. I've been curious to see how she'd acclimate and behave if she was all by herself.

    PS.. Emeraldgreen... I have the rest of the Clomicalm here cause I couldn't see any change in her and I wanted the vet to observe her without any meds.

    Do you want me to ship it back to you, or maybe I should offer it to someone else?

    That's okay, if someone else needs them for their cat, please send it to them. I'd be happy if they could help another cat. Hope Ally finds a way to soften up a bit being an only cat at the tech's house. Might take a few weeks but who knows, maybe she'll change. Look forward to hearing how it went.

    Thanks for the update. I hope that Ally will do well at the vet tech's home. If she does will the vet tech be adopting her? Did the vet look at her teeth and gums to see if this was causing her any pain? Whatever you decide for her I'll be here for support.

    I sure hope this works. And I really hope the tech updates you! (I am so curious).

    Prayers for Ally and the tech.. that they find they a home with each other. I think it might take Ms. Ally a while to start to trust again.. I hope the tech will be very patient and give her the time and space she needs.
