Brand new here - I need help/input/a shoulder and not sure where to go in this forum . . .
Hezký, my 2.5yo male tabby ate the 18" braided cord off of my medallion.
I'm kicking myself! For 22 years, the ONLY TIME that I take that medallion off is to bathe.
[that's beside the point - leaving out many unnecessary details - like WHY I wasn't paying attention - I knew he was playing with it -----}
This happened late Tuesday afternoon. [Nov. 1]
I didn't realize what had happened until the next evening.
[omitting more details]
Now, it's early Saturday [Nov. FIVE] and the gravity of the situation is JUST NOW hitting me full force.
He was ok until a few hours ago. When his sister gets her meds, she gets 'nummies.' Hezký's feet barely touch the floor, he's in the kitchen that fast when he hears the jar rattle. Friday night, he just laid there in the living room and looked at me. Then he verrrrry slowly got up and walked into the kitchen like nummies-time was no big deal. [IT IS]
His vet's clinic opens in 5 hours and I WILL be calling!
Am I right in thinking that this will mean he needs surgery - since it's been days? ANY chance it'll make it thru his guts??
I'm leaving tons of info out - if this sounds cold, that's why. Trying to leave out unnecessary stuff like how bad _I_ feel and just give facts about my baby boy so he'll be ok.
Is anyone awake at 3am central?
