He has an appointment tonight with a different vet. I have not taken any of my animals to this new vet yet, but my mom has used them and she really likes them there. Unfortunately, my husband has to take him because I have Search And Rescue (SAR) training with my dog tonight and if I want to stay in that SAR club, I really can't miss tonight. I am worried sick. He's probablly going to have to be hospitalized, but whatever it takes to make him better is fine, but I'll miss him terribly if he can't be with us in our home.

I am a little worried about something though. I don't want to sound like a bad kitty mom, but I chose not to vaccinate him when I adopted him off the streets. I took him in for a full blood screening, fecal checks, and full health exam, but I opted not to vaccinated him because I have a couple of friends here at work who's cats developed melignant melanomas from vaccines, so I opted to go the natural route and not vaccinate him, since he is strictly indoors. Now, the vet will not hospitalize any animals who have not been vaccinated, but they also don't vaccinate sick animals either, so I am a bit worried about how he will be treated. Hopefully if he needs to be hospitalized, they will either vaccinate him when he's well enough, or they'll just skip it and treat him for his illness, regardless of his lack of vaccinations.

Hope you all don't think I am a bad kitty mom for not vaccinating him. I did not do it for the money, I did it for the fear of him getting sick...and now I am in a bit of a pickle. Hopefully everything will be fine and I can have my healthy Minion back
