Usually Bugsy is the one needing vet care... He's been doing great... Now there is something wrong with Hope...
A background: Hope was for a long time on a all wet diet, and then I successfully transitioned her to a 50/50 wet and dry to match my schedule and budget. All the while I continued feeding her 2 wet meals a day.
Well... it turns out that all of the sudden she decided to boycott the dry food (without my knowledge). So about 2 weeks ago I hand fed her some dry food, not knowing she had stopped eating dry all together... and the rest you guys probably can imagine... Massive diarrhea.
I immediately put her on Bene-bac, and that helped a LOT, but she still continued having it on and off for a week or so. I stopped by the vet and he told me to put her on Fortiflora and wait for another week, which was last Friday, to see if she improved...
All was PERFECT... until last night... Her appetite decreased a little... Then today her appetite was way off... And she had the runs again...
Now Hope is not a cat to have low appetite - that is what is worrying me...
She is a cat that will eat her food, Bugsy's food, and my food... So, unless she is completely fine in the morning, I am taking her to the vet tomorrow.
Gosh... My poor Girl... I just hope it is the case of a course of metro, and nothing else...
(And a little vent.....) Can I just have three healthy kitties for a little while? at least while I am unemployed? P-L-E-A-S-E? That is how I feel sometimes (like now)... I know it is dumb, to feel this way, but man, I feel I need a break... (end of little vent)
