Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
kerry, is the blood red blood on the outside of the stool or is the stool black? if it is the former, the combination of symptoms could be ibd. michelle In a message dated 10/17/2006 6:42:52 P.M.

Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
I've been told that a small amount of red blood at the tip of a stool can be an indication of stress. Try to find out more specifics about it. If you can't go to the vet visit with Megan, try and impress upon her how important it is to get to the bottom of Kitty's symptoms and to treat them promptly. Did the adoption contract specify that you have a right to take Kitty back if you think it necessary? I know you don't want to alienate the new mom, but you might have to start being more firm in your approach.

When I first brought Romeo in, he was so scared that I know he was afraid to go to the box as often as he wanted to. Well, I noticed small drops of blood on the edge of the box and got a bit nervous. Turns out, he just had become really constipated and problem sort of solved itself when I made sure he was able to freely go to the box without being so scared. I had talked to vet though.

Thanks everyone, Kerry This morning she had again vomited twice. She doesn't seem to be ailing, although she is considerably more clingy than usual.

The vet said nothing to really worry about (unless vomiting increases or she quits eating) but I'm bringing her in on thurs AM as I had an appt then anyway for Alex's annual. I did give her a 1/4 tab of Pepcid though to soothe her tummy if it was just a little upset. Thats the story as of right now. Thanks for all of your suggestions and concern.

Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
Hi Kerry, I can understand your concern about Kitty. Her symptoms are troubling to me too. How old is she again? If this had just started, then I might think it had to do with the stress of her new home and not so friendly attitude between cats. I would feel better if the vet this woman was seeing seemed more competent. Granted, everyone on this list has red flag hair triggers, but... It does sound like the new mom is concerned and keeping an eye on the situation, although the question about whether cats get fevers is an indicator about how little experience she's had with sick kitties. Would she be willing to take Kitty to a vet that you trust? I know first hand how difficult it is to let go of the responsibility we feel toward foster fur kids. There is only so much you can do at this point though. I'm glad that the new mom seems open to your intervention. Have you paid Kitty a visit in the past few days? Perhaps she wouldn't mind if you went with her to your vet. If it were me, I'd go have a look at Kitty and see what my impressions are. Remember Vladimir's story?

RE: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
Not necessarily --- some kitties have warm ears with normal temperature -- I just rescued a feral boy, Tony-- and his ears are really warm, and I checked his temperature and it was 100.7 -- normal -- one time I asked my vet about it.. she said it all depends.. how about the nose? Are they dried? Vomiting can be or is not any serious problems,, I have a cat who vomits all the time, and they couldn't find anything wrong -- does she eat okay? Did she lose any weights? Could be psychological or emotional, too?

Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
Not necessarily. Cat's temps are warmer than ours in their normal state, so she may not be able to gage if her ears are too warm. I make a habit of touching their ears etc when I know they are feeling good so I have a better idea when things are off.

Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
If the vet doesn't get it find another vet. This has gone on too long without an explanation. The thing is to catch problems while they can still be handled. I have taken too many critters to the vet just because something didn't feel right in my stomach. I have rarely been wrong and in several cases delays could/would have cost lives. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

RE: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
Title: Message One very serious effect of not eating *can* be hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver disease) which can, if untreated,kill them. Diane R. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of MacKenzie, Kerry N.Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 3:58 PMTo: felvtalk@felineleukemia.orgSubject: o/t familiar with these symptoms? Hi everyone Please know that though I'm not able to be on the list all the time at present, and have to go away again soon, all your furbabies are always in my thoughts, and I especially send positive thoughts for those that aren't doing so well. As always, I send my condolences to everyone who has lost a beloved kitty. My beloved foster cat, Kitty,who went to her new home a few weeks ago, while being treated at the same time for diarrhea, has had a recurrence of the same symptoms, and I'm worried about her. Here's what her new mom says: "She is vomiting clear liquid, not eating as much and there was a small amt of blood in her stool this morning too. I talked with Robin (from PAWS) and she said the thing that worried her the most was the lack of appetite. I called my vet and she said the same thing, we're going to go in on Thurs AM and run the full gamet of tests- just to be on the safe side. Although, Robin mentioned this was the same type of symptoms she had before with you. True? The Vet wasn't worried so much and thought theThursday time was fine enough unless things seem to worsen. like I said she's still hydrated, I've seen her drink and she's been playing." Does anyone have any idea what these symptoms may mean? She did have all those symptoms while with me (I rushed her to the vet). Also, can someone confirm what I believe to be the case: that it's unsafe for a cat to go even one day without eating. Kitty was very hard to assist feed, and I'm afraid that her new mom may not realize how very important it is to get food inside her (it doesn't seem like the vet paid much attention to the lack of appetite and associated danger in letting it go on). I want to email her mom, but back it up with facts, and what the consequences of Kitty not eating can/will be. Grateful for any information that i can pass on. Kerry M. IRS CIRCULAR 230 NOTICE.

Re: o/t familiar with these symptoms?
Kerry in all fairness, cats that get HL after only a day or two of not eating anything probably haven't been eating well for a few days and it wasn't noticed until they stopped eating. Unless you weigh your kitties regularly most people aren't going to notice that their cat isn't eating as good right away, especially if you have a multi-cat household. I weigh the cats I know don't eat as good as the others about once a week and keep a close eye on the rest just because I've had to deal with HL before. this one say's not eating for 3 days, but I know of cats that it took less time -- Belinda happiness is being owned by cats ...
