Sick Kitty


My Jose is a sick little kitty.. ( well not quite so little.. he weighed in at a whopping 18lbs & that was after he has been vomiting & not eating for just about 2 days) From what I could tell.. he hadn't been drinking either & was somewhat lathargic.. I was very concerned about dehydration( among other things) so I took him to the vet this afternoon. No specific diagnosis.. but he did prescribe an antibotic to be taken twice a day for 10 days..He also injected him with fuids as well as a shot of a steroid that he hopes will enduce his appetite. We have been home (from the vet) for about 3 hours now & he is still just laying arround for the most part..Hopefully he will be feeling better in the morning.. A few minutes ago he did walk over to his water bowl & take a small drink. I was VERY happy to see that. Add Image

Oh dear, this is a bad development. I do hope he gets better soon.

He is doing much better.. Thankyou for asking. He started started to eat again late Saturday night & today he is much more "himself"
