    Thank you, Laura! Looks like we posted at the same time, because I just posted an update, she seems to be doing better today.
    I really really hope it was just a temporary thing!

    Kirsten - I wouldn't rule out the heat as being her problem. It can really do a number on some animals (and people ), and cause then to act as if they were sick. Glad to hear that she is feeling better tho. Do you have a fan that you could turn on so that she can seek out the breeze from that?

    Yes, I have a fan, but it's not very effective, and she doesn't like being near it when it's running. But you could be right regarding the heat; it's a little cooler today, maybe she's feeling better because of that. She's no longer a young cat, and she's overweight. I also used to feel very ill in the summer when I was still overweight.

    I'll bet that was her a problem. And I'm underweight, and the heat just kills me. I may be dead soon! We went to turn the central air on yesterday and it's not working, and we are having a mid-summer heatwave with temps in the 90's. No chance of getting it repaired before Tuesday if we're lucky, since this is a holiday weekend. Lots of fan running here. I think I'll sit with my feet and a basin of ice water.
    I hope that pretty girl continues to feel better.

    Oh, I'm sorry to hear that! That sounds just awful! You know, over here in Germany, we don't have any cooling systems or air condition at all, and as soon as the temperatures reach the 90s (which they had a few days ago) it's getting really hard to bare; especially here in my apartment under the roof. The other night, I had 80°F inside my bedroom, that was just awful. Makes me dizzy and lethargic.
    Take care of you, hope you'll get it fixed as soon as possible.

    We are hoping Luna just had a couple of 'off' days. I speak from personal experience that 90+ degree heat can make you nauseous and disoriented. I was a lineman for the local telephone company in my younger years and it almost killed me then. I wouldn't stand a chance now.

    Prayers and good thoughts still coming though, just in case.
