My cat Hepburn is in the hospital

[flamingyouth]

He's been vomiting quite a bit over the past couple of days. He has a very sensitive stomach and this has been a lifelong issue with him (he's 13). Today he wasn't holding down any water, even, and he seemed to be in distress, so rushed him up there. I'm sure he's dehydrated. I hope he'll be okay. He's my little buddy. :cry:

[flamingyouth]

12. He's upset that he hasn't talked to you for a few days

;)

[Fenris]

13. Well, I was waiting for you to call last night.

You didna! :o

[flamingyouth]

14. Weren't you studying?

I didna want to bother you. :shrug:

[Fenris]

15. I was, but I still wanted to talk to you.

Sorry for the miscommunication. :blush:

6. Oh I'm sorry. Poor little guy!

:-(

Hopefully he just has a kitty stomach flu. He'll probably feel better once he has some intravenous fluids, and he'll stabilize. Has he had any other issues, aside from the puking?

[flamingyouth]

7. He seems kind of "bloated," but that's not the right word

It's hard to describe what I felt when I picked him up this morning after his latest incident, but like his stomach was bigger than normal, which concerned me. :(

20. Oh, I hope he's OK.

:hug:

Sending good thoughts your way!

34. Oooh, yes he does!

What a handsome kitty! :D

[flamingyouth]

33. They've decided to keep him over night

He managed to keep some food down today, which is a good thing. His blood work will be back tomorrow, so hopefully that won't be too scary and he can come home tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks again, everyone. :hug:
