Currently going through this as well. Took my Cookie to the ER vet as a precaution because of some vomiting. Xrays were clear, just a tummyache but she got an injection of Simbadol. I have no idea why they gave her such a powerful painkiller instead of sending me home with oral Buprenex (which she tolerates well). We'll be at the 72 hour mark in 8 hours and she seems to be slowly coming out of it. Her symptoms:
Pacing for first 24 hours
Not sleeping for the first 40 hours, hasn't gone back to a normal sleep schedule yet.
Pupils dilated
Has an appetite, but only wants "junk" food- treats, food toppers/appetizers.
Haven't seen her drink water so I've been sneaking it into her food.
They told me she "might" be loopy for 24 hours. Cookie is a 12 year old tuxedo chonk, not sure how much that affects this outcome. None of my other cats have weight issues.
If I sit alone with her in a dark room she will sleep now but the pacing is still there on and off.
