> I've got to do something for her nausea before she's really dehydrated, so I gave her 1/4 tab of Gravol (kitty dose). Now I'm going to try to syringe some more water (only) down her throat. She must wonder why I'm being so mean to her. Still, while she's upset, she loves me lots & will cuddle.
Hello Iso
Not been feeling well? I'm glad that you are able to joke again!!! I'm pretty fragile myself at the moment and the doc has given me an extra week off work but coming Monday is D-Day again. I hope I have a more successful comeback this time :).
You ARE being mean to your poor little kitty (is Medusa her name?) But your only being cruel to be kind.
Nothing tugs at my heart-strings so much as a suffering animal. I think that despite all the hissing she still knows deep in her little heart that you are helping her despite her confusion?
When my female dog had an ear infection she HATED me squirting the stuff down her ears that the vet gave me. When it was dosing time she literally used to run away and hide under the bed. She would tremble and make very sad little whining noises the whole time that I was fiddling with her ears.
But she still loves me :) :).
Warm regards to you and Medusa.
My Growwwly companions also also send their love...they used to get all concerned whenever our kitty was not well.
