I thought I’d put up a couple of photos I took of my cat. I know, cliche, but just indulge me this time.
She has had perfect health for the last 11 years. I took her to the vet because I sensed she was not herself and I noticed she hadn’t had a bowel movement in the last 24 hours. . The Vet says she is dehydrated and that could be causing her not to have a bowel movement or she is feeling too bad to try.. Kiddie’s colon has is not impacted. Her heart and lungs sound good and her teeth are good too. However, he is concerned about her dehydration. He is doing a complete blood and urine work-up because he can’t tell anything from the physical exam and he gave her fluid under her skin to hydrate her.
She has even lost a half a pound since September. I should know the test results by tomorrow, but if she hasn’t had a bowel movement by then I will have to take her in to have an enema.(eeewww!!)
This little girl has been my constant compaion for the last 11 years. She has seen me through college, about 5 jobs and countless temps jobs, and 6 years of marriage. She knows when I am sick or when I am depressed. She is an amazing creature. Everyone who meets her knows she is kind and gentle and just wants to be love.
I hope you will enjoy her pictures.
Update: Kiddie is back to normal. She is again chasing me around the house, purring her head off, demanding food, and attacking her scratching post.
