cat distemper? Mine had it once years ago.
I don’t know chicksoup but glad you responded.
First, I am a cat lover. Well I am an animal lover, got three cats and a dog. Live by myself, love my pets.
Gerald is as sweet and loving a black and white cat ever.
But at times I see him heaving as if throwing up but nothing comes out but a bit of spittle. He lays by the water bowl most days. Yesterday he spent the entire day in the closet, took me two hours to find him.
Cats usually find some hidden spot to go and die. Last thing I needed was a dead cat smelling up the place that I can’t find.
::taking deep breath:::
About the Vet....yeah I got a Vet. Looks like Mitt Romney.
But what’s wrong with Gerald, as I strongly suspect, is that he has a blockage in his stomach.
Now I know it’s not food. He is an indoor cat always. He is bright-eyed, loves people, not a fur ball problem as I groom all these shedding animals religiously three days a week.
I think he has cancer.
Now I take him to the Vet...Mitt Romney says he needs xrays. My Vet has just a small practice, likely have to leave Gerald.
Probably lots of examinations....lookit....I know my animals. I am giving Gerald lots of love, Lord I love him dearly.
And I see in his eyes he loves seeing me first thing in the morning. The other day I did get him to eat three shrimp, which I peeled special for him.
Gerald LOVES shrimp.
But he’s dying. I know he’s dying.
So I am a bit grouchy.
He’s had all his shots, including distemper, rabies....goes to Vet every year.
Say a prayer for me and Gerald.
He’s had a good life.
