Fun Stuff > CHATTER
We love our pets!
pwhodges:
I had a cat with symptoms similar to that once; also a reddening of visible skin, such as inside the ears. He recovered over about a week. The vet attributed it to chewing some unidentified toxic plant, or just possibly eating the corpse of a poisoned mouse or rat.
The Seldom Killer:
Blood tests were negative which point to something toxic. We're keeping her in for a while while the diagnosis is ongoing. Could be a lot of things like licking rat poison, lily pollen, close contact with a recently flea treated dog, etc...
Supposed to be trying rectally administered Diazepam which proved elusive last night. Trying again this evening.
She doesn't seem too unhappy and is still being playful which is a good thing. Occaisionally she'll tremble while lying down and looks a bit distressed though. I guess it'll get to her a bit.
Lines:
Aw, poor kitty! I hope she recovers quickly. :-(
Barmymoo:
My stepdad and mum's dog Midge is almost certainly dying :(
The Seldom Killer:
Newt seems to be getting better. Her strength has returned and the trembling has receded. Probably not going to be tip top a while but well enough to be allowed back outside.
Alas my in-laws have had to put their dog down. He was old, quite weak and had developed a rapidly metastasising tumour. If I'm brutally hones I think he had declined past a reasonable quality of life some time ago but these decisions are never easy.
