Carole ~ What did the vet have to say?
Is Nikki feeling better?

[carole]

Lisa he found nothing wrong with her, she had even gained weight and had no temperature, she did have a little itch in her ear which i got him to look at, and he said it was not bad enough to warrant treatment, i said should we have bloods done, he said not at this stage.

I really have no idea what is going on with her, i think it must be grieving after all for Ellie, but i am not 100 per cent convinced either on that, she is being distant from us , and not that hungry ,mind you the weather has just started to get hot, and she eats more at night and is getting through her daily ration, so i guess not too much to worry about.

Will keep close eye on her, we also think maybe she is getting into rubbish on mondays, is rubbish day, and old habits die hard, could explain her feeling sick, so we will be putting a stop to that, if that is happening and keeping her in until the rubbish has cleared, my ash used to do that too, no matter how well they are fed , they return to what they have always known scavenging in the rubbish, arrghh...nawtee kitties.

Thanks for asking Lisa, just have to hope nothing has been missed and she is ok, she is licking herself more than usual and she is just not the Nikki i know,however a good sign , got her to play last night and she was really in to it, was great to see her usual spirit within her coming out again.

It's so hard not to worry about our babies. And you know Nikki better than anyone. So, just keep a close eye on her.

But, it's good news that the vet isn't worried. Please give her a gentle hug from me.

yes Lisa, i know i need to be happy she got the all clear, but you know it is just like mothers with their children, they often know them better than the doctors when been seen by them,i feel much the same with my furbabies, with them 24/7 and i know them oh so well, even to the point of their body language, i knew when Ellie was not feeling good, just by her eyes, the way she had her body positioned.

I will indeed give her big pat and cuddle from aunty Lisa,and thank you for caring, will keep a close eye on my precious wee girl for sure.

I'm glad Nikki has seen the vet, and I know you will do everything she needs to help her get back to her usual self. Did the vet think she might be grieving too?

[carole]

he did say it was a possibility that she was Pat, i don't think it really hit her until like two weeks down the track, i am still not sure it is just that, so i just have to observe her and keep my wits about me regarding her health, she is top priority for sure,i don't think i am being paranoid, but i did put the W in Worry lol.

I'm sorry to hear that she isn't feeling well. I hope she'll start feeling better soon.

She seems a lot brighter now, so fingers and all paws crossed ,whatever was bothering her is not anymore, or maybe it was just her grieving.
