Mama Cat
Mama Cat went to the vet this morning - Vet just called
Today mama weighs 5.9 pounds … back in may she was 7.1 – shes lost 1.2 lbs in 2 months … bad bad bad
mamas temp is 104, she is hot hot - so some kind of infection going on – shes getting the antibiotic shot
she is dehydrated – shes getting fluids
they are going to do an inhouse blood panel – checks the kidneys and liver and a few other things
her lower right gum is inflamed, this is where she had issues before and all those teeth are already gone so not sure what causing the inflammation but the antibiotic shot should help that too
They are giving her the fluids and antibiotics now … and when I get there at 530 if she needs more fluids they will give her more

We are all sending our best purrs to sweet Mama Cat.
ReplyDeletePoor, sweet Mama. We are sending you lots of love and rumbly purrs little one. We hope the vets can help turn you around and get rid any nasty infections, so you can eat well again.
ReplyDeleteTeensy tiny fragments of tooth root can stay hidden for ages when toofies have been pulled, this happened to me (Gerry) once they were out, I was much better. Just a thought!
Rumbly purrs and love
Gerry & Mungo

ReplyDeleteWe were gonna say what Everycat said about pulled teeths. If nothing helps, a trip to a kittie dentist might be wirth a thought.
