Wow....Nomilynn! Lucky was almost exactly like Bassett! I too thought hairballs and waited on the Vet visit. When she walked into the room, saw his breathing, her face dropped and I knew something was desperatly wrong! She sent me immediatly to the ER Clinic and of course I cried the whole way there! My husband works an hour away from home, so by the time he got to the clinic I was a total mess. Our progonosis was grim.......they made us sign a CPR form as we left for the night and were only giving him a 50% chance. That alone sent me over the edge! I don't think I slept for the next few days.
It is one week later (and lots of $$$) but Lucky is doing MUCH better!They are also calling Lucky's Idiopathic......I'm still trying to figure out what happened!! He has always been a indoor kitty, so I have no idea what or how it happened.
Although I don't wish this on anyone, I am glad I found you! I know exactly what you went through. By the way, I thought your father did a wonderful thing for you. My father is not a animal person and told me to stop crying and act like an adult, "its only a cat!"-------Don't even get me started on that subject!!
I think me & my boys have found some new friends!!
