GOOD NEWS:UPDATE #8 Mimi not feeling well.
Last night Mimi didn't want to come to bed, she was playing with a twistie
(her favorite toy), pounced on our feet when she did (she even bit my big toe!), and this morning she gave the the 'look from hell' after I gave her the medicine. Now she and Ernie (and Moe, Weeble & Ping) are all participating in the Zoomies. Earlier, Mimi was playing with *her* twistie, when Ping pounced on it (and getting her as well), she got all huffy and her tail puffed to 5 times it size! Yay Mimi!!!! Also, she's up to 7lb, 1.5oz!!! Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: We finally manged to get a poo sample for TED from Mimi. I followed her all day Friday, but all she ever did was 'window shop' whenever she got near a litter box. I think she must have been holding it until I was "distracted by something shiney" and made a break for it. Finally, at around 10pm-ish last night, I cleaned out a litter box and locked Mimi in a room by herself with food & water. At about 4am-is, DH got up for a potty-break of his own, and checked on Mimi, and came back in and annouced that 'we got poop', and that Mimi was all frisky, wanting either to rub on his ankles or scratch the mini-tower that we had in there with her.... she just wanted some attention in there all by her widdle self she was getting lonely. TED had emailed me last evening mentioning that there might be parasites.... some sort of bacterial innfection, food allergy, IBD or IBS. He suggested that we bring her in this morning, along with poo sample. BUT, since we started the antibiotic, she has been eating like she just remembered how, and has gained 4.5 - 5 ounces! And she's started grooming herself again, so she's not looking so 'scruffy'. At the TED, we told him about her improvement, and when he looked at her, he could tell without even touching her. Her backbone is not as sharp as it was 3 days ago! He said to keep on what we've been doing (mixing a bit of kitten chow in with her food doesn't hurt her, or any of the cats for that matter) but if her stools don't solidify, to start with the lactobacillus (sp?) in either live culture yogurt (which she doesn't like) or with Bene-Bac like we did with Minnie this past summer. He also didn't find anything in her poo (aside from come cat litter LOL). She's felling a lot better, even pounced on my feet last evening while we were in bed. She wants to play, but Moe, Ernie, Ping & Weeble are kinda toy-hogs so she doesn't get much of a chance. Yesterday afternoon, she was rolling around a katnip infused kitten-pillow (make by the same people that put out the TED doll), biting and bunny-kicking it one second, licking and rubbing her face on the next.... Soooooooo cute. She then hopped up to the kitten-cuddler bed on the table behind the sofa (under the sun-lamp) and I actually saw her wash her face and shoulders some. Yay Mimi!!!! AND.... She poo'd again just about an hour ago, and it was fairly solid (if somewhat stinky). Thanks to everyone for their well-wishes and purrs - they seem to be working. Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: We started Mimi's atibiotic last night, before we went to bed (instructions said every 12 hours), and kept her in the bedroom with us last night (the only kitty onna big soft sleeping place, Weeble is a bit jealous of her), and she woke me every two hours as she wanted out. I would bring her out of the bedroom, following her hopping to get a poop-sample for TED, but all she did was *EAT*. Weighed her this morning as she's up an ounce! YAY!!!!!! Bad thing is she hasn't pooped since she left that squishy yesterday - at least that I know of, and I've been watching her pretty closely. I'm doing my happy dance, at least for the next ten minutes, then I have to geive her another dose of her medicine (It's a liquid pediatric form, and smells like bubble gum, so I'm assuming that's what it tastes like - makes me wanna go out and buy some Hubba-Bubba or Bazooka Joe bubble gum, but I'll settle for my sugar-free Extra bubble-gum :] ) Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Got word back from TED. Some of her blood values were a tad high (can't remember which ones), but all were still within normal values. *WHEW* We were worried that it was CRF (or worse). I was assuming that they did a fecal swab, but maybe they didn't as I had said she had not thrown up nor had diarhea, but now that we *know* that she's got runny poop (even though she's not poo'd herself or anyplace other than the litterbox) & possibly the pukies, he thinks it might be one of two things: food allergy or some sort of digestive tract infection (even though her white blood cell count was not elevated, but the stress of being at TED's for about 15 hours may have affected that - his statement not mine). We will be starting her on antibiotic tonight (Amoxocyllin) and see if that helps. If not we will try the hypo-allergenic' food and see how that goes. We (or rather I, since I am home more than DH) will try to get a fecal sample to take to TED so he can check for any nasties (I'm wondering if it shouldn't be wrapped in a red bow w/ Merry Christmas on it, LOL). Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Yesterday, Mimi acted a whole lot better, but today she threw up (I think it was her - there was some on my chair, and she had been there earlier, but so had Tennessee, Weeble & Ernie - at different times), it wasn't much. Later I followed her to the litterbox and her stool was very runny - almost like baby food. Sounds like something is upsetting her digestive system. I haven't heard back from TED's blood test yet. I have also emailed this info to TED, and haven't heard back from them on that either. Right now she is on the table behind the sofa, soaking up the rays of the 'sun lamp'. I found a brush & comb, and did her fur nice & pretty yesterday evening. She liked the comb better than the brush. I got a bit of fur off her with both, and she did look soooooooooooooo cute with the 'comb lines' in her fur, like a freshly plowed field. She is still eating, and drinking, but... sigh What to do with poor widdle sick kitty??????? Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Picked up Mimi at TED's around 10:30, dropped her off at home with plenty of food & water. X-rays came back normal - no fluid buildup or anything like that in her heart or lungs. No masses that would be causing any problems in her gut (not even a hairball), but they did say that some of her intestines seemed out of place, probably from when they palpated her , but her kidneys were looking normal (no tumors or other growths). The blood test will be back in a few days (they don't do that on site). She cried all the way home, and clawed at the mesh of my soft-sided carrier (I was afraid she would rip through it with her razor sharp claws). The tech said that she was cranky this morning (you would be too, if you hadn't had anything to eat for 12+ hours, and are used to being able to eat anytime, even if you don't want to), and was swearing at them when they came in. Of course, I had to fain incredulous comments ("Mimi, use foul language??? NEVER!"). But then again, she was NOT happy when TED stuck that thermometer where things are not supposed to be stuck When I got home, she walked out of the carrier, tail up in the air like she owned the place. I had all the cat dishes in the dishwasher, so I had to get them out so I could feed ALL of them (not just Mimi). Ernie, Moe, Weeble & Ping were torn between investigating the carrier (even though they had ignored it last night), and chowing down. Mimi nibbled a bit, then starting cleaning herself (where the thermometer should not have been put - and I'm sure they did a fecal swab to check for parasites/bacteria as well), then nibbled some more.. She also has a shaved spot on her neck from where they drew the blood - and it looks like she might have struggled a bit when they did it as it does not look too nice She is now purring, meatloafed on my desktop. She looks better, albeit a bit thin, but I guess she had a major grooming-session while I was out running errands (new movies come out on DVD on Tuesdays, and LOTR3 extended version is one of them - DH would be a major grump if I did not get that for him). I need to go unload my purchases now, so I will stop gabbing about poor widdle Mimi. Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Just got back from TED. Have left her there overnight as they are going to run blood (and other) tests in the morning, and probably do some x-rays as well. TED said that her kidneys felt small (but she's a small cat), and her heart sounded loud on both sides (she was scared to death). She was not dehydrated at all, and her temperature was normal (and she growled like a junkyard dog while TED was taking it). I could have brought her home, but for blood tests they need to have fasted for 12 hours, and 8 hours was bad enough when we took Ping in for TBS (The Big Snip) - deny food from one and you have to deny food from all, and they nearly ate me alive the next morning. She will have food and water until the cutoff time, and then only water. She will also not have 7 other cats harrassing her, even if she is cowering in a metal cage Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Well, she hasn't gotten any worse, but hasn't improved any either, so she will see TED this afternoon (he only sees patients in the afternoons, mornings are when he does surgeries). She is eating, but not enough. She is also drinking & her skin is elastic, so I don't think she's dehydrated. I hope that this is nothing serious. She just looks soooooo sad, like she's saying "Mommy, my tummy not feel good" I'll post more after her visit to TED. Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: The past couple of days, Mimi has been 'off her feed' so to speak, only nibbling at the food instead of gobbling it down with her usual gusto (I guess she decided to put herself on a diet in order to lose some weight, so we won't call her "butterball' any more). She's also started to get a bit 'scruffy' looking. Her skin is still very elastic, so she's getting plenty of fluids. Last night, she acted like she was going to puke (but didn't) - so, remembering back when we had Ivy & her CRF, we decided to give her a Pepcid - actually, about a fourth of a pill. An hour after that she ate some, not much. At 3:30am I got up to do the bathroom run, and Mimi was in one of the kitchen chairs (I gave her a pat on the head before I went tinkie). After the obligatory bladder-emptying, I stopped at the computer to check things out (a habit I find hard to break), and after about 30 seconds, I hear crunching behind me. Mimi is chowing down. When she's finished, when wanders over to a scratching post to sharpen some claws. About then DH comes in, and ask about her. She immediately trotted over to him so she could rub his ankles. More movement than she's made in days! We took her back to bed with us, and she settled in to give herself a bath. About an hour later, she was walking around the bed, so I got up and took her out to the sofa. When DH's alarm went off & he got up, he said she came running to the bedroom door. After DH left for work, I left the bedroom door open and lay in bed reading. Mimi joined me, leaning on my ankles (after conquering them with a kitten-nip or two) and proceeded to give herself another bath - until she drowsed off. DH just called me from work, and Mimi followed me into the kitchen - and she 'meeeeeeeeeee' at me! She proceeded to lead me back in here to the computer so I could watch her eat, and she is now meatloafing under the 'sun' created by my desk lamp (the only sun around here for a couple of days, too - it's been yucky wet weather so much, I was wondering if our complete neighborhood had been beamed to the Seattle WA area). She is also looking less 'scruffy'. Purrs that Mimi continues to get over her upset tummy, and a visit to TED is not needed. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

He said to keep on what we've been doing (mixing a bit of kitten chow in with her food doesn't hurt her, or any of the cats for that matter) but if her stools don't solidify, to start with the lactobacillus (sp?) in either live culture yogurt (which she doesn't like) or with Bene-Bac like we did with Minnie this past summer. He also didn't find anything in her poo (aside from come cat litter LOL). She's felling a lot better, even pounced on my feet last evening while we were in bed. She wants to play, but Moe, Ernie, Ping & Weeble are kinda toy-hogs so she doesn't get much of a chance. Yesterday afternoon, she was rolling around a katnip infused kitten-pillow (make by the same people that put out the TED doll), biting and bunny-kicking it one second, licking and rubbing her face on the next.... Soooooooo cute. She then hopped up to the kitten-cuddler bed on the table behind the sofa (under the sun-lamp) and I actually saw her wash her face and shoulders some. Yay Mimi!!!! AND.... She poo'd again just about an hour ago, and it was fairly solid (if somewhat stinky). Thanks to everyone for their well-wishes and purrs - they seem to be working.

I would bring her out of the bedroom, following her hopping to get a poop-sample for TED, but all she did was *EAT*. Weighed her this morning as she's up an ounce! YAY!!!!!! Bad thing is she hasn't pooped since she left that squishy yesterday - at least that I know of, and I've been watching her pretty closely. I'm doing my happy dance, at least for the next ten minutes, then I have to geive her another dose of her medicine (It's a liquid pediatric form, and smells like bubble gum, so I'm assuming that's what it tastes like - makes me wanna go out and buy some Hubba-Bubba or Bazooka Joe bubble gum, but I'll settle for my sugar-free Extra bubble-gum :] ) Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Got word back from TED. Some of her blood values were a tad high (can't remember which ones), but all were still within normal values. *WHEW* We were worried that it was CRF (or worse).

We will be starting her on antibiotic tonight (Amoxocyllin) and see if that helps. If not we will try the hypo-allergenic' food and see how that goes. We (or rather I, since I am home more than DH) will try to get a fecal sample to take to TED so he can check for any nasties (I'm wondering if it shouldn't be wrapped in a red bow w/ Merry Christmas on it, LOL).

Later I followed her to the litterbox and her stool was very runny - almost like baby food. Sounds like something is upsetting her digestive system. I haven't heard back from TED's blood test yet. I have also emailed this info to TED, and haven't heard back from them on that either. Right now she is on the table behind the sofa, soaking up the rays of the 'sun lamp'. I found a brush & comb, and did her fur nice & pretty yesterday evening. She liked the comb better than the brush. I got a bit of fur off her with both, and she did look soooooooooooooo cute with the 'comb lines' in her fur, like a freshly plowed field. She is still eating, and drinking, but... sigh What to do with poor widdle sick kitty??????? Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Picked up Mimi at TED's around 10:30, dropped her off at home with plenty of food & water. X-rays came back normal - no fluid buildup or anything like that in her heart or lungs. No masses that would be causing any problems in her gut (not even a hairball), but they did say that some of her intestines seemed out of place, probably from when they palpated her , but her kidneys were looking normal (no tumors or other growths). The blood test will be back in a few days (they don't do that on site). She cried all the way home, and clawed at the mesh of my soft-sided carrier (I was afraid she would rip through it with her razor sharp claws). The tech said that she was cranky this morning (you would be too, if you hadn't had anything to eat for 12+ hours, and are used to being able to eat anytime, even if you don't want to), and was swearing at them when they came in. Of course, I had to fain incredulous comments ("Mimi, use foul language??? NEVER!"). But then again, she was NOT happy when TED stuck that thermometer where things are not supposed to be stuck When I got home, she walked out of the carrier, tail up in the air like she owned the place. I had all the cat dishes in the dishwasher, so I had to get them out so I could feed ALL of them (not just Mimi). Ernie, Moe, Weeble & Ping were torn between investigating the carrier (even though they had ignored it last night), and chowing down. Mimi nibbled a bit, then starting cleaning herself (where the thermometer should not have been put - and I'm sure they did a fecal swab to check for parasites/bacteria as well), then nibbled some more.. She also has a shaved spot on her neck from where they drew the blood - and it looks like she might have struggled a bit when they did it as it does not look too nice She is now purring, meatloafed on my desktop. She looks better, albeit a bit thin, but I guess she had a major grooming-session while I was out running errands (new movies come out on DVD on Tuesdays, and LOTR3 extended version is one of them - DH would be a major grump if I did not get that for him). I need to go unload my purchases now, so I will stop gabbing about poor widdle Mimi. Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: Just got back from TED.

She was not dehydrated at all, and her temperature was normal (and she growled like a junkyard dog while TED was taking it). I could have brought her home, but for blood tests they need to have fasted for 12 hours, and 8 hours was bad enough when we took Ping in for TBS (The Big Snip) - deny food from one and you have to deny food from all, and they nearly ate me alive the next morning.

She's also started to get a bit 'scruffy' looking. Her skin is still very elastic, so she's getting plenty of fluids. Last night, she acted like she was going to puke (but didn't) - so, remembering back when we had Ivy & her CRF, we decided to give her a Pepcid - actually, about a fourth of a pill. An hour after that she ate some, not much. At 3:30am I got up to do the bathroom run, and Mimi was in one of the kitchen chairs (I gave her a pat on the head before I went tinkie). After the obligatory bladder-emptying, I stopped at the computer to check things out (a habit I find hard to break), and after about 30 seconds, I hear crunching behind me. Mimi is chowing down. When she's finished, when wanders over to a scratching post to sharpen some claws. About then DH comes in, and ask about her. She immediately trotted over to him so she could rub his ankles. More movement than she's made in days! We took her back to bed with us, and she settled in to give herself a bath. About an hour later, she was walking around the bed, so I got up and took her out to the sofa. When DH's alarm went off & he got up, he said she came running to the bedroom door. After DH left for work, I left the bedroom door open and lay in bed reading. Mimi joined me, leaning on my ankles (after conquering them with a kitten-nip or two) and proceeded to give herself another bath - until she drowsed off. DH just called me from work, and Mimi followed me into the kitchen - and she 'meeeeeeeeeee' at me! She proceeded to lead me back in here to the computer so I could watch her eat, and she is now meatloafing under the 'sun' created by my desk lamp (the only sun around here for a couple of days, too - it's been yucky wet weather so much, I was wondering if our complete neighborhood had been beamed to the Seattle WA area). She is also looking less 'scruffy'. Purrs that Mimi continues to get over her upset tummy, and a visit to TED is not needed. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

Last night Mimi didn't want to come to bed, she was playing with a twistie (her favorite toy), pounced on our feet when she did (she even bit my big toe!), and this morning she gave the the 'look from hell' after I gave her the medicine. Now she and Ernie (and Moe, Weeble & Ping) are all participating in the Zoomies. Earlier, Mimi was playing with *her* twistie, when Ping pounced on it (and getting her as well), she got all huffy and her tail puffed to 5 times it size! Yay Mimi!!!! Also, she's up to 7lb, 1.5oz!!! YAY!!!!! What a good (zoomie) girl Jill Magic Mood Jeep© wrote: We finally manged to get a poo sample for TED from Mimi. I followed her all day Friday, but all she ever did was 'window shop' whenever she got near a litter box. I think she must have been holding it until I was "distracted by something shiney" and made a break for it. Finally, at around 10pm-ish last night, I cleaned out a litter box and locked Mimi in a room by herself with food & water. At about 4am-is, DH got up for a potty-break of his own, and checked on Mimi, and came back in and annouced that 'we got poop', and that Mimi was all frisky, wanting either to rub on his ankles or scratch the mini-tower that we had in there with her.... she just wanted some attention in there all by her widdle self she was getting lonely. TED had emailed me last evening mentioning that there might be parasites.... some sort of bacterial innfection, food allergy, IBD or IBS. He suggested that we bring her in this morning, along with poo sample. BUT, since we started the antibiotic, she has been eating like she just remembered how, and has gained 4.5 - 5 ounces! And she's started grooming herself again, so she's not looking so 'scruffy'. At the TED, we told him about her improvement, and when he looked at her, he could tell without even touching her.
