Suddenly Coco Puff is sick!; *Update*; had to rush him to the vet

Maybe he had a reaction to the treat...Hope Coco Puff is feeling better, and you too Mary!!

It just might be that theres something in that treat that triggered an allergic reaction, but that sounds very severe for that to happen.
We are praying that Cocoa Puff is all night, and this was just a reaction to a treat that somehow was tainted! I have seen Whiskas Temptations that looked and smelled off too.

Dr. Lee called while I was running errands. This is why I love this man. He was gone for the day but checked in and they told him that I called so he called me right away. I told him what was going on and he said "Are you sure he didn't get into something or eat some string or something like that?" I said "My house is so cat proofed you wouldn't believe it but I guess there's always that possibility". He said "It almost sounds like a blockage. When you get home, if you see that he hasn't changed, bring him right in".

So I checked on Coco immediately and he had vomited again, this time all mucous. So I took him in to Dr. Lee's. He did an x-ray of his stomach and he said that all that was in there was a lot of air. Poor little boy cried and just drooled all the way there and back home again. He was dripping on both sides when I took him out of the carrier just now. So Dr. Lee gave him an injection for nausea that lasts 12 hours and I have some nausea meds for him, too. But he said that if he's still vomiting to bring him in again. Neither of us can figure out what has caused this so suddenly. Dr. Lee feels that he's going to be ok, though.

Candle on the way!!! Prayers, too....

Poor little guy! Prayers that he feels much better SOON!

He seems to be doing better. The drooling has finally stopped, thankfully. He went over by the counter top where I keep the cat treats and he looked up at the jar. I thought "You've got to be kidding me, cat!" Right now he's sitting by the front screen door looking out at the few birds that are still hopping around in the yard.
