Dear Diary Wednesday....

Oh god, it was a loooooonnnnngggg night!

I got home to take Spooky to the vet. They did x-rays and he looked fine, other than he was vomitting and had horrible diarrhea. He got a shot of anti-diarheal and I got to bring some meds home. Then all hell broke out.

After a couple of hours, I had him in his own room with food, water, and a litterbox, which he decided to use. That is when I saw all of the blood. So, I packed him up and grabbed my Mom and we headed to Central...for an allnighter. They did a full blood work up on him, more fecal smears, an IV, and everything else you can imagine. What we finally found out....NOTHING! His blood work came back PERFECT, he has no bacteria, no infection....NOTHING! So he got another shot, some more anti-diarheal, something else, and we headed home. Now I have to go home, see if he has quit vomitting, and if he has not, we are going to the vet AGAIN for another x-ray. The good news is that they think he has "feline flu" which just takes its own time to work its' way out of him. The bad news is that in less than 24 hours I almost spent $800 on that cat!!!!

Oh, and have I said how tired I am at this point.....

I think we need to open an after hours vet clinic that doesn't rob people blind.

There was a certain point last night/early this morning that I would have paid almost any price just to GET my cat back to go home!
