They dined on mince and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand on the edge of the sand
They danced by the light of the moon.

We headed to the vet's this morning. Barfing has been consistent and daily. Sadly, she has a heart murmur. UGH! She was such a good little scardy cat and let us handle her for a blood draw. We will start with a thyroid panel. If that is negative, continue with further blood work. If positive, I will have a decision to make and it won't be good. I will either put her down or return her to her trapper. I just can not see pilling such a feral kitty twice a day with thyroid supplementation. She is still quite thin. She eats well enough, but does barf up every day. She is only 4.7lbs. Stay tuned...............
What the heck is a runcible spoon?

Poor kitty! I can't believe you have another cat with a heart murmur. I don't like the vomiting. It's too soon to put another cat down though. I have my fingers crossed for her. I suppose you've considered the possibility that she has a huge hairball or something, and that's why she's throwing up. That would be so, well, easy. I can't find a definitive answer about what a runcible spoon is.
ReplyDeleteThyroid is normal, so now we are thinking just stress or irritable bowel of some sort. She is short haired, so unlikely a hair ball of that type.
