I knew someone was throwing up - a lot - but I didn't know who until the third day, when Leia informed me it was her doing. I watched anxiously but it never got better. And if she ate or drank,
it just triggered more. A body can only take so much of this.

So around 4:30 am we went to the vet (my regular vet who is a 24 hr vet).
Thankfully, all vitals were good, no evidence of anything nasty.
She had lost almost half a pound since her visit on Oct. 15.

They gave her fluids and an anti-nausea injection.
We will go back mid month for some blood work and see if anything is going on inside.

Best case, it's just one of those things that happen to all of us, and this supportive care has ended it.
When we came back about 5:45 am, Toby was waiting for us.
He was rather confused about it all, since he was deeply asleep when we left.

Please, everyone, have a better weekend than ours has started out to be!
Leia, we hope you are resting and going to be feeling much better soon. Glad Toby was there waiting for you to get home. Hope the rest of the weekend is much better for you.

Paws crossed that Leia is okay after this treatment!
ReplyDeleteOh no Leia!!! Bless your sweet heart and your mom's for the wee hour vet visit. I know the subqs and the antinausea shot both work miracles so hang in there my little furry friend
ReplyDeleteHugs Cecilia
Toby you look like you caught the gals walking in after a night on the town WITHOUT you
We cross our paws and hope the injection works ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteOh no! Yes, I sure hope it's one of those short-term bugs, but it sure can make one feel awful. I hope with the injection and fluids, she'll feel better and stop the throwing up. The kitties send their purrs to Leia and Toby.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry you are not feeling well, Leia. I hope the shot and fluids have you feeling better again.
ReplyDeletePoor Leia. We hope she feels better and is okay.
ReplyDeleteOh no poor sweet Leia. Glad her vitals are good and I hope she will be OK. I hope she will gain some weight back as well. Sending purrs xo
ReplyDeleteI will be praying for Leia to be better soon. XO
ReplyDeleteDid little Leia also have diarrhea? The two things, vomiting and diarrhea happened to Katie about 20 months ago and she too had to go to the Vet immediately. Some probiotic helped her. But her case may have been completely different. Leia, all my love sweet little girl. Please feel better quickly. Toby, don't worry Honey.
ReplyDeleteNo, just vomiting.
DeletePoor Leia! And poor you, too. We sure hope your weekend ended up being better than the start! xo
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Leia indeed. Hope things turn out well for her.
