Sorry to be off topic, but can everyone please send good
vibes/glow/prayers for
Whitey? He was neutered on Wednesday morning, and when I brought him
home, he began
to vomit and have severe diarrhea. He went back to the vet and was
hospitalized
overnight, and is now back home (mostly because I can't afford for
him to be at the
vet's office any longer). The vomiting is much better, and he is
able to hold down
small amounts of food at a time so long as he is not given his pain
medicine (it was
making his nausea worse, as when he vomited it up it made him foam
at the mouth and
gag terribly). Which means he's in pain, of course. I feel just
terrible for him,
he's so miserable! The vet did lots of testing, including a full
blood panel, and it
came back perfect. They said that if it were a reaction to the
anesthesia, it would
show something off on the blood work. He's FELV and FIV negative, and has no
parasites. All the tests say he is in perfect health, yet he is
really ill, and not
doing good at all. I'm going to have a friend come over tomorrow and
do reiki on him.
The vet thinks it's probably stress, since nothing appears to be
wrong physically.
Please send good well wishes for him! He is such a sweet boy, and he
is so miserable
now. I feel so bad, I didn't want to neuter him at all! I'm going to
try to get to
the health food store tomorrow to get some Rescue Remedy too. He's
eating good, which
is a good sign, but I'm having to limit his intake, as he's only allowed 2-3
tablespoons at a time in an effort to keep him from vomiting. Anyone
else had cats
get violently ill after surgery like this? The vet said she's never
seen this before,
and it's a VERY odd reaction, especially since there's NOTHING
showing up on any of
the tests that is abnormal.
