I'm so glad you were so vigilant, recognized the changes in Pudge, and got her to the vet. Do you have to give her antibiotics?

When I first read your post I was shocked you thought $500+ was a reasonable vet fee… until I remembered you live in NYC.

I'm so glad mrsD is here to help you. Thank you mrsD :hug:
My cats LOVE boxes. Whenever I order something I leave them out for a few days. My husband cuts little windows in them (lol) so when one kitty is in the box the other kitties get something to look at and they can play, too. I have to tear off any tape or Rocky will chew it and eat it though.

I hope Pudge feels better soon, and I hope you feel better now that you know she is being taken care of :hug::hug::hug:

I hope this means that you are reconsidering your idea of rehoming Tiramisu now.

i got confused with posts. a lot of vets here charge more. i don't have much money so this was a big chunk. i am glad about tiramisu. i panic so easily.
i am such a mess. pudge's temperature now is a little below normal which i think is okay.

We all get messy sometimes :hug::hug::hug:
Do you have an appointment scheduled with your pdoc?

A reasonable fee for a service because you live in an expensive city doesn't mean it doesn't hit you hard :hug:

Cats are just like humans, so a temp a little above and below should be fine. I'm glad about Tiramisu, too. That must be a big relief :)

Hang in there Bobby :hug::hug::hug:

i see my primary doctor on friday. that is a big relief. right now pudge is curled up on the printer. still haven't seen her eat. I spell as if i am spinning.
love

i didn't go to the beach yesterday. went for a walk with cecilia and met stella.
bobby

i don't know if pudge is warm again. cecilia is going to come over tonite and take her temperature. I have to hold her. I think i will give her the other dose of metcam even though i am afraid.
yesterday she was full of life. today she is sleeping all day.
actually tiramisu is sleeping on the bed all day
bobby

our cats sleep a lot.
((((HUGS))))
bizi

her temperature was 99.9 - i was relieved big time
bobby

:hug:Our kitties sleep a lot too. They either sleep during the day or night.

So its not unusual.

Donna :grouphug:

i guess it was unusual that the day before pudge was very active then. right now since tiramisu is only one she is very active. I can't believe how long she is. I am used to little cats. they called her medium and she is a little more than 10 pounds but boy does she look big to me. she is so trusting or else dumb that i have come close to stepping on her a lot. i hope it is trusting. I forgot i had abby who was an abyssisian who was very active throught her long life....
