Gabe's fine, I'm sick

(11 posts)
  1. Been out of the office since Tuesday. Got sick Monday night; vomited twice, had diarrhea for 2 days. Was just like it is when you have to drink that gallon of stuff to clean out before an exam, straight water. Good thing I stopped vomiting and could keep down fluids and oral meds, or I'd have wound up in the ER on IVs. Still feel weak; probably won't stay long today.

    Gabe is fine, emptying the (small) food bowl three times a day. All tests are in; has been exposed to FIP at some point, but evidently doesn't have it. Has been exploring the upper reaches of the indoor territory (tall furniture). Sloppiest eater I've ever had, too; kibble all over the floor and in water bowl at each meal. Delighted to see it; means he's eating.

    May try to type in some of a manuscript we're revising. Have to go get Gabe another week's worth of antibiotic from vet, but that's not far.

  4. Sorry to hear your not feeling well Leeny. {{{HUGS}}}

    Glad to hear Gabe is doing so well. My one & only Orangie, Rusty, is also a "Sloppy" eater. He takes a big mouthful of kibble & carries it away a few feet & drops it on the floor & proceeds to eat it. Then goes back for another. Silly cat.

  8. Leeny I'm sorry you're feeling so poorly. Please get some of those re-hydration drinks for yourself as well. Could you have gotten a touch of food poisoning? Please take care dear. Happy Gabe is doing so well! Just wish you were too. :(

  10. Leeny, get well soon. I've been meaning to ask, who's your vet? When I lived in Athens, it was Dr. Ellen Maxwell. She's the best--I've never known a more compassionate soul, and among the special people whom we call veterenarians, that is indeed high praise.

  11. Please get better soon, maybe Gabe can return the favor now that he's on the mend.
