Took Giz to ER vet last night...*Pic added

[Laura's Babies]

I was SO freaking out and so was she.. I feel silly now but at the time I didn't want to take the chance it was life threatening... it could have been anything!!

At the ER after we arrived, she still would not let me hold her or comfort her, she only let Rie hold her. Today, she still don't want me touching her and ignores all my pleas to get in my lap.. She is sleeping more than she usually does today but appears to be back to normal except for refusing to get into my lap or letting me touch her.. Maybe she is just mad, thinking I made her hurt last night?.. maybe embarrassed that she carried on and pooped on the kitchen floor? Who knows! I am just glad she is alright..

A couple of pic's I got of her today where she has been all day. My beautiful girl...




At the ER vets, when they opened the kennel and saw her they commented on how beautiful she was.. I said "Yea, SHE KNOWS!"

Awwwww! How beautiful she is in her "after" photos.. pure royalty! I'm so glad she got that out of her system and seems to be feeling fine now. It would probably be a good idea to follow up with your regular vet; at least phone to let them know what happened and see if they want to check her out further.

How frightening that must have been for you! Gosh, please do not feel silly today. You didn't get any more panicked than I would have if one of my babies suddenly started behaving like that. What if Giz HADN'T been able to pass that stool on her own? Good thing you took her to the ER vet.

Well done, Giz and Laura!

Oh Giz is beautiful!
I'm glad the ER trip didn't turn out to be a true emergency and hope she continues to be just fine!

Oh Giz you are stunning, and what a fright you gave yourself and Mama, glad to hear all is well, take care.

They look the prettiest when the vet says they are fine, don't they?

Hello Giz, you are looking ighty fine now, the day after!

Laura, what a scare! I was getting worried just reading. I am so glad it turned out alright.

Can you think of anything different in her diet to account for this? Darn, I hate it when something "mysterious" happens to one of our pets!

Love that face, Laura. Giz looks so queenly. As I mentioned on FB, Cat Lax really helped my Pidge when she became blocked. Giz is young so it'll probably help her even more. When cats get old, just like humans, things start slowing down and it becomes more difficult for them to pass a hairball. Glad she's doing ok now. It can get scary, especially when they're howling b/c we don't know what's wrong and they can't tell us!

There have been no changes in her diet or anything... That is what puzzels me. Just a fluke maybe..?

The ER clinic told me they were going to fax a copy of the paperwork to my vet and also gave me a copy to take them. If she is still laying around tomorrow, I will call and take her in.. she could just be exausted from the fright and pain of last night and I don't want to stress her so soon after her ordeal last night. I noticed the few times she did get up and head down the hall to her box, she laid down (meatloaf style) on her way down and back and there was NO poop in her box today. I am watching that close. I will be getting her something to soften her stool in the next few days... any suggestions?
