Please help save Sydney's life!

Oh goodness, did you talk to your vet directly about it? I would and I would definitely voice my displeasure. I'm sure Sydney will be fine but she didn't need this added stress and neither did you.

Their explanations are totally unacceptable!! And that is a lot of blood for a small animal to lose.

First, I hope that Sydney's heart is fine and that her ECG and ultrasound results will come back within the normal range.
Second, how horrible!!! I can't believe that no one is even accepting the blame for not removing the catheter. I'd be extremely angry and would demand to speak to the vet. I sure hope that this blood loss hasn't hurt Sydney in any way. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Crappy excuses!

That is unforgiveable - especially as it caused Sydney pain and stress!

Having said that - a few years ago when I worked at a cat boarding place, I yelled for the owners when cleaning a room. There seemed to be a LOT of blood EVERYwhere. A multi-cat family was sharing two rooms, and someone got territorial.

She came up, we checked the kitties, and none had a bad wound, which was good. She also told me that with cats, the amount of blood looks like more than it really is. I think because the blood is thin or something.

I STILL say they made a horrid mistake and handled the solution to it badly. I just mean she may not have lost as much blood as feared.

{{{{HUGS}}}} to your precious angel!

I am so sorry that you and Sydney have had such a trying couple of days. Prayers continuing that all will be fine with your fur baby. I can't believe they left the catheter and I would be very upset also. Hang in there, all of us here are praying for you both.
