sounds like a really bad reaction to the vaccine. Do you know how to check
to see if they are dehydrated by pulling on their skin Google it. If it is
positive and no matter what I would call the vet to see if they need to
start IV fluids.

I know this is emotional WRITE down all the symptoms and reactions all of
them how long apart etc it is easier to tell a vet when stuff like this
happens trust me it works. When rumble has is first seizure 7 years ago I
was a babbling mess and hysterical my vet who is my friend also thought my
mom died. Since than I have learned the above

Thanks for the links. I've bookmarked them for future need. She is much
better today. She's eaten several times - small portions of chicken -
and she drank all the water and broth I added to the food. So she's not
dehydrated.

And yeah, it is so scary when they're sick, and the fact that my Spanish
is not the best and the vet's English is non-existent didn't help. When
I saw that puddle of blood where she had tried to poo I almost lost my
mind. Not the best of states in which to try to explain things to the
vet in another language. Now that I'm calmer I am writing down the whole
episode, with approximate times of when things happened. I'm not sure if
the vets here keep detailed records like my vet in Canada did, so I'm
keeping the records for my cats myself - when they were sick, what
medicine and dosage they were given, how they reacted, etc. You never
know when it might come in useful...

And I'm just so relieved that she's feeling better. She's only 2 and
half - too young to be trying to give me more gray hairs with serious
health problems :-(
