Kitties! It has been a hard several days for me. Mom got concerned yesterday and thought she would wait till this morning and make a decision. I am not better, so she called the Vet and asked if I could be seen today. They said bring me in and leave me. Mom did.
Mom here: She would not eat yesterday except a mouthful...and that amount didn't improve. After a while, she started vomiting large pools. Four of them. Two with very long hairballs with the pool. She still wouldn't/couldn't eat. She went all day without eating..but she drank. Today, on getting up...same. I called the Vet office and was told to bring her in and leave her. I trust them implicitly and had no problem with that. They treat her like a human... kinda sorta. Very very nice. I got a call as soon as I got back in the door and he said she did have a GI tract issue. The other things I wrote in the form for the visit when it happens without the parent... indicated the other issues to be addressed.
By the way, she quit the special food and she had been getting Methimazole for about a week now. she She gained three ounces!!! I took the advice of one of her commenters a week or so ago on the bloggie and tried to rub it in better. That has helped. Thank you to whoever said that. Because she is having Methimizole she is now eating her regular Science Diet and Fancy Feast. No more of the special prescription diet. She refused it after a week or so.
She will have Cerenia, some fluids, an antibiotic, and something for the itching. I forgot the name. Then, I can go get her. I will tell you, it saddened me tremendously to see her sick. I have never seen her like this before.
Just wanted you to know. 💕

Purring for Katie.
Purrs and purrayers from me (and my angels) that Katie is soon better. 🙏❤️
Poor Katie, after having a nice Thanksgiving and now this. I am so sorry she is having such issues and now more meds. I hope she gets home soon to your lap and a good rest.
oh katie baby, purrsss hoping yoo feel better soonest!!!!
I am glad that rubbing the gel in better is helping. It is good news that she has put on a little weight. I hope with the Cerenia etc. that she soon starts to feel better.
Oh dear Katie! I do hope you are feeling much better soon. Getting rid of those ugly hairballs was probably very good for you.
Not eating is a big concern. I have used those medications before as well. Hope she gets her appetite back soon.
We send sweet Katie purrayers and love that she is better soon.
Sorry Katie was so sick. I am praying she feels better soon. XO
Oh, Carole, that must have been so horrible an scary for both you and Katie. We are sending, purrs and prayers that Katie will get better very soon. XO
It's heartbreaking when they don't feel well. They expect us to magically make everything better for them :( It seems like usually those prescription diets are a hit for a short period of time only. So glad she's back on the meds and already gaining weight.
Oh dear, sorry I'm late getting here. Poor Katie, I hope you are feeling lots better super soon sweetie. Hugs from all of us. We love you!
All paws crossed here for sweet Katie Isabella. We hope she is doing much better once she is back home. Hugs.

Chaplin: "Oona and I have been a bit off our food the last few days, eating some and leaving some. Mama and Dada cannot figure out why. We like to keep them guessing."
Oona: "LIKE NINJAS."
Charlee: "We cats send lots of purrs for you to feel better soon."
Lulu: "And we dogs send lots of tail wags!"
We are behind and reading backwards, so we do know the outcome of all this. We hate that Katie was unwell and happy to hear she is better now. XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta & Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Sawyer, Kizmet, Audrey & Raleigh
