Boots is Home from the Vets....

They said it took about 4 hours for the barium to go through her system. Thankfully the x-rays did not show any blockages or anything. Just inflamation....they think just a result of a virus. I am still frustrated that there's no real diagnosis. Just wait & see. They did not do any tests for parasites since they did not think they were a likely problem. I sure hope the vet is right. She thought the barium would coat her intestines and cut down on the sensitivity/nausea. So far she still seems nauseus when we try to pet her....strange. Her voice is still not there. I am supposed to call the vet tomorrow to let her know how she's doing. She ate a few bites of her dry food tonight and that's it. Still no water.....sigh. At least she got some fluids at the vets.

Thank you everyone for your continued thoughts & prayers. It is hard seeing any of our babies so ill. Sweet Boots tried to clean Boots (they had given her a partial bath at the vets). So cute!
Boots & I are off to sleep....Misha & Meezer are up playing as usual. LOL
Good Night!

That's good that Boots doesn't have a blockage.
You're a sweetheart!
I'm working at a college which is a minimum 30 minute drive each way from home (there's lots of construction around town, so in rush hour traffic it has taken me up to an hour on bad days).
Dusty was so lucky to have you at home. :-)
It is good that the xray showed no blockages.
You poor thing! You had to go through the barium x-ray procedure before? How did you feel afterwards? Was it painful or just yucky to get the barium? I knew it would take something pretty uncomfortable or scary to ever make Boots react like that. She normally is so friendly she'd come right up and sit on your lap even though she just met you.
Boots really appreciates the hugs & kisses from Misha & Misty. :-) She sends purrs (since her meows won't work at the moment. LOL) Thanks so much for your prayers!
