Lissy (she is in my avatar) is poorly and it is breaking my heart.
Symptoms:
Lost weight.
Won''t eat.
Drinks lots & lots.
Vomits if eats (but not eating now).
Her poo is strange. (Starts off as diarrhoea in what looks like raw egg whites, now is just like raw egg whites- no ''poo'' at all. She does lots of these little blobs around and wails as if it hurts her to poop.
)
Much quieter than usual. When speaks wails and warbles as if saying "I''m sick, mommy".
Wanted to sit in very very quiet place and be left alone.
Pussy cat:
Under 2 years old.
Neutered.
Best marmalade cat in the whole wide world.
Vet:
She went to the vet after Christmas. About 2 weeks ago now. When we saw that she was vomiting and not eating. She was doing those weird poo''s and wailing as if in pain. The vet gave her an injection and antibiotics for a week. He had no clue what was wrong with her but agreed she had lost lots of weight. [He wondered if she had an obstruction and felt for that but found nothing. We mentioned when she was a kitten we often had to take string etc off her as she wanted to eat it. Once or twice we found string in her poo as a kitten.] He suggested we give her the antibiotic and see if that sorts her out. We brought her home and did a day or two of the antibiotic but by then she was back to form
. Eating like cray and running about. She was so active we forgot to continue her treatment (I know, I know I certainly regret it now). Well DH and I went out on Sat night and when we came home Lissey had vomited twice on the kitchen floor and done lots and lots and lots of the raw egg white looking poos. She was drinking lots but refused to eat come Sunday. I went to the vet on Monday and told them what happened. I asked for more antibiotics to start and finish her treatment now and the assistant gave it to me but suggested I bring her in if she was not eating. Well Tuesday is done and my beautiful Lissey has not eaten. I have tried: kibble, freshly cooked chicken, pro-biotic yogurt, warmed cat jelly pouch/gravy pouch/tuna..nothing. My baby is sick.
We are going to ring tomorrow and see what the vet tells us to do. I imagine that they will want to see her although the vet had no clue the last time...
Have you ever heard of this? Especially the raw egg white looking poo?
