Just talked to Kim (& Kia) in the Hospital -
Kia IS going to stay another night...
So thay can work on getting some water & food inot her via mouth. The IV drip will continue;
as well as round-the-clock monitoring by the overnight Vet Techs.

Kia HAS be Out & About with Kim - they took a stroll outside. Kia is Very Tired now, but seems reasonably *happie*!

Doc is still concerned, but optomistic.
Kim shot some pix of the Patient - and will go back to work to post them here.

I suggested she ask if she could come back later for a visit - no word on IF that's allowed or not.

More as we get it... STAY TUNED!
Thanks Phred.

Thank you all for the thoughts, prayers, and well wishes. And Joan, that was sweet of you to post her DOTD link.

As promised, here are a couple pics of the patient.





She is SO embarressed of that "blue thing" on her tail. (It keeps her tail clean from all the poopy. )

It was a rough decision but as Phred explained, I did decide to leave her at the vets for one more night.

I can and am going to visit her again tonight. The vet will be there till 9 p.m. but I can visit even later than that. The front staff that was there when I left will be there when I get back.

Kia enjoyed her walk (she pulled quite a bit) but it tired her out quickly. She drank half a cup of water and held it down so the vet said that is a good sign.

Mommy is tired! And I bet I have some happy (?) cats when I get home.
