WoW your Vet Clinic is open on Sundays.. Mine is open on Sat from 8-noon..

Well glad to hear Sunny is pretty healthy in general.. Hope the wittle one gets to feeling much better soon.. I as well hope his next kidney test comes out good.. Sending Bigg Huggss & Whisker Kissess & Prayers..

Yes, my vet clinic is actually open 24 hours because it's also an emergency clinic. My vet works from Sun.-Wed. from 7am-5pm but she does surgeries on Mondays so she doesn't see patients on those days. I always try to make my appointments on Sundays so that I don't miss work because sometimes it takes much longer than I think it will. So far I've been very pleased with all of the vets that I've seen and their customer service is wonderful. I love my vet and she specializes in cats so I try to get all of my appointments with her.

Thanks for all of the good vibes. I sure hope that it turns out to be nothing and that my Sunny boy will start acting normal again soon.

Tracey, I’m sorry to hear Sunny hasn’t perked up much, but so hope his ultrasound and kidney levels will show good results! Sounds like he was a good boy when visiting the vet.

I’m sending lots of positive vibes to him, and to Storm too.

Thanks Randi. He seems a bit perkier this morning so I hope that this will continue.

I also forgot to mention that he doesn't have a heart murmur any more. He was found to have a very slight one last year but nothing this year. I'm also going to find out if a thyroid test was done because I read that sometimes this can change a cats personality and make them very lethargic.

I thought that Pearl's stools were under control but I found out that tonight she's still having liquid diarrhea. While she was on the medicine, she seemed to be getting better. After she finished her medicine, I started giving her Primal Defense Powder mixed in canned food but this caused some loose stools so I tried some baby food. Then this caused liquid diarrhea so I stopped this on Tues. She was still having issues so I fasted her for about 14 hours from Thurs. evening around 7pm to Fri. morning around 9am. I then only gave her a little bit of dry Innova Evo and she seemed to be doing better.

Today I gave her a little more Innova Evo but not as much as I usually do. Tonight she had more liquid diarrhea. I e-mailed and also left a voice mail with my vet asking her what I should do next. She works tomorrow from 7am-5pm so hopefully I'll here from her then. Pearl's last stool test came back negative so now I fear that she may also have a form of IBD or even colitis. I have plenty of prednisolone to give her if my vet feels that this will help her. I hate giving this to her but if it'll help calm her tummy down then I may have to. Please send some good vibes to Pearl. Thanks.

Sky's stool test came back normal which is great news. My vet didn't even charge me the $150 for the test. I spent more than enough today on Ziggy's bill.

Now I'm to give Sky 5mg of pred once a day for the next 4 days to see if this will help firm up his stools. Then I need to e-mail my vet to let her know if it's helping him or not. If not then I don't know what we'll do next. The Fortiflora helped Pearl but it made Sky sick so I can't use this on Sky. I just want him to get back to normal again.
