    Thanks everyone!!

    Just got back hauling a 15 1/2 lb and a 5.3 lb cat to the vet. I'm sweating bullets.

    Just as I thought, Maya Linn has allergies and a possible sinus infection. He gave her shot of cortisone and gave me Ammoxi drops with cortisone to give her. She's now resting comfortably.

    Murphy has HYPERthyroidism. She also has a heart murmur and a rapid pulse rate. He took blood and gave her a shot of benadryl to stop the itching/hair pulling (which was causing the itching). He'll call me tomorrow with the results. I asked him about a transdermal cream you rub in their ear for the hyperthyroidism. He said that might be an option once we get the blood test back.

    I'll keep you posted tomorrow.

    Total cost = $189.00

    Both babies home and happy = PRICELESS!!!

    PRICELESS! You got that right!

    Looks hopeful for Murphy. I hope he and Maya Linn are much more comfortable soon!

    Great! Maya Linn got just what she needs to nip this one, and that sounds very promising for Murphy.

    I'm glad that you were able to get them both into the vets and I hope that they both start feeling better soon.

    They've both perked up. I think the reason why the vet wasn't too worried was because Murphy IS eating, drinking, using the litterbox, so there really doesn't seem too much to worry about. I just pray it's nothing serious with Murphy (due to her lack of weight). If it were serious, I'm sure the vet would've kept her overnight. Still waiting for the blood test results.
