bad news:Loreena is at the hospital since 9am today
We dont know what is really going on.
She had stayed home since 4pm yesterday cos it was a rainy day and all was fine,playing ,eating
About 11pm she was sleeping in a weird place(near the toilet, on the floor)and position and that worried me a little but I assumed she was just tired of the kids
By the moment i went bed I had to rescue her from under the furniture,and pĺace her on her basket.
Breath was a little acelerate and I already having a terrible bad feeling.For some reason I could go bed and sleep.
Today morning I found her in the same place ( inside the basket) And a poo not so bad near that, meaning she was not able to go litter, the more she could was not poo in the basket, poor one...
Took her vet without any calling this time,girl was like a ragdoll,i didnt dare do more than put some antitoxical on her mouth and go there.
I had to wait for 3 dogs to be attended and this time I knew my baby was not fine
Vet could not measure her temperarature, so low it was - 32C if I'm not mistaken
He put her on fluids and me outside room cos at this moment I was already crying.Pick some blood for lab tests ( that only will be ready at night, if so - he asked urgency,but the will pick the sampler after 12pm.He's susppectig diabetes,glicemia was a lot high and she took some insuline already
At this moment she is there,I have a future big bill waiting for me ,an much, much ,much fear about everything.
Shes not lying on that weird position anymore - but that is all the progress i can see
Cage is big ,I cant touch her.And she had one eletric heater,so i guess its the best we can offer there now
I was there twice already , second one I let Blue ( a toy she enjoys sometimes,arms and legs are cords) with her,hope it keeps my smell and make her feel a little better
Its all folks, i cant keep posting with tears rolling by
Guys at the clinic are simpathetic but I guess i will could only visit her again after 18pm.Theres no news by now, anyway.
Hope i can return soon with good news...

Mc cats family behaviour is almost normal again.
Lolo was driving me crazy on the weekend.She now not only scratches the door, she also looks for the backpack I put her to walk sometimes, sniff her leash ( no doubts she will start grabbing that as a dog soon) and, last resource she got - uses the pledging heartbreaking meowing ! (she never had done it - she' almost dumb)
Last step will be no eating strike,I just hope we can skip that
She has a new vet appointmant ( retorno) tomorrow, and will be the last day of the medicines, unless vet change something. Poo was not so bad last time I saw and she's taking the oral medicine quite easily, today I put not deeper enough but she swallowed e licked.Taste is not bad, definitly - uff!
My 2 fears at this moment are
1- They wanting new lab tests to check if the infection was gone _ I still have to pay those,this week.( plus 3 monthly instalments of "others")I cant afford nothing more!
2-Girl returning to her normal life without me knowing what exactly she had/has
I wonder if she had that on the street or outside will she get safe?
Could a cat survive outside with 32C grades? What if she had decided for lying under a car and not under my wardrobe?
Better not think about - since my eye problem may life has been "like anonimous alcohoolics life" - just for today!
Just for today its all right here, and I have to be happy for...

I'm sorry, Apple....I didn't mean to suggest you weren't keeping a close eye on Loreena and the kids. I know how dedicated you are to them. But when you were talking about Loreena climbing the tree with the leash trailing behind and hoping for a rotten collar rather than a hanger cat...well it conjured up all kinds of images for me. I'm sorry I let my imagination run away with me. Love You, Linda >^-^<
Product is called here "Mercepton"
Its a mix of hepatic protector plus vitamines - and not dangerous for not sick animals, so vets say
I will give more detils asap

Apple, we know how cautious you always are and how well you care for Loreena and the kids...you are a great mommy.
Lolo's symptoms are a puzzle for sure, so bear with us as we try to help you sort some of this out.
I too wondered about toxins or poison exposure.she is showing some unusual signs that all came up so quickly...like you said she was fine and playing shortly before.
when you get her blood work, post it and I will try to determine what the tests show(in my very limited ability)...
here is a site that talks about common household toxins and the signs of poisoning, read thru it all and see if theres anything on there that she could have been exposed to....
Also WHAT is the antitoxic you gave her?

dear, of course leash for loreena means me at the other end :)
Means me having to take forced sunbath together standing on her side ( everytime I sit on the floor she moves)
Im not crazy - and for kids nor this way, I dont trust them very much
And grab the leash very very hard,after that episode when she was quietly sleeping and run away with suddenly
About the possibility of poisoning, that would be my first idea,( even not knowing who in hell could be the **** but all the context makes this higtly improbable this time
See: it was a rainy day and she was coming and going from the backyard - and no one except me was home.About 4 pm she decided for be inside again and i closed the door
She stayed normal happy and playful til 11PM - any poison would have acted faster, dont you think so?
No vomit, no diarrea, no convulsions
Gave her a few antitoxic next morning just in case she hd eaten something inside - a bad bug, maybe?
No trusting it will help, not really
It s a real puzzle

Linda, I think she's right there watching and could make a rescue should Loreena get hung up. Knowing Apple, she's probably not but a few yards away, if that. We had to do the same thing with Abby when she was so ill - she would NOT use a litter box and being an outdoor cat, she was going crazy inside so we did the same thing and took her out on a harness both for her peace of mind and ours.
Apple, that's great to hear Loreena progress. I'm with Linda - gosh, maybe she was poisoned. The meds will make her stool unusual, you're right about that. You're doing a wonderful job taking care of everyone as always. And medicating your cats by yourself makes you my hero!
