Further update on Millie
12
Wed, 05-06-2009 - 8:23am

I've decided not to call the vet. Or at least not for another couple days.  Millie looks and acts fine. She is using her sand and eating and drinking and jumped up onto and down from the table today. And she lets me pet her and seems to like it. As long as I don't try to handle her too much, she seems fine. So rather than call the vet and then probably have to take her in there, which would mean catching her and putting her in - and getting her out of - the carrier, I'll let her rest wherever she wants for another couple days - as long as she doesn't seem sick. If she still seems really sore on Friday or Saturday, I'll call and get her in on Saturday, when dh can help me take her in.


Keep up the good thoughts for her soreness to get better and not have to go through another visit to the vet, and thanks so much for all the good thoughts you're already sending. They help me, anyway.

Ann, I read your other post you made around 5:30 am and while that did not sound great I assume that you found Millie to be able to ascertain at 9:25 that she was getting a bit better?

Yes, the early post was after I had kind of held her to steady her when she slipped off the counter. She cried and ran off without eating. Dh got up and found her and got her to eat and later she came out of hiding and was looking better.

Glad to hear she's sorta okay now, or better than last night anyway. When I had a cat, she always

Yes, things are looking up! As I said in the Whines and Whoo hoos, she came out of hiding to see what I was having for lunch. And after a little time she jumped up onto my lap and settled there. She let me pet her gently, then washed my hand (I don't know why she likes to do that, but I was thrilled to let her do it this time because it was so normal, lol!).

speaking of shots and stuff.....we gave the cat (monkey) fea drops between his shoulders. She went mental. was crouched running, liking like crazy. then the vet said try it next month. if it happend again keep her off it.


Noiw wondering if i should give to the kitten?? Monkey has never had a reaction to shots or anything...so why now??


The dog takes it with no reaction. sadly he got a tick on the top of his eat. The rest of the body was ok.


I found a tick on my arm this morning...the worst part of spring!
