She definitely had the runs the 2 times I saw her going. She was gonng both, but I think has been only peeing now since mid yesterday. I'm not sure how worried I should be about that because she really hasn't had a lot of food in her tummy to make her have to poo. I am calling the vet now though...hopefully it's just a tummy bug, my sisters dogs had one a couple of weeks ago, so I'm hoping she just caught what they had

Curious, very curious. My two F3 brothers about 3 weeks ago both stopped eating, period. Two days and would not eat a thing. My wife works down at a local vet office. Took one of boys in to be checked out. Best guess, stomach virus. (I'm thinking she may have brought it home... as they were getting some other cats with the same presentation.) The oldest started slowly eating after 3 days. The youngest took another two days to start eating. And they didn't start back eating ravenously. Very slow increase in amount ingested. Now, the brothers can't eat enough. But the most curious part of this episode, they acted totally normal aside from not eating. They tore up the house like usual. No fever. No malaise. Just savannah shenanigans. These cats always make you shake your head.:confused:

Yesterday I could see she wasn't feeling well, she was really mopey, but my sisters dogs were here and she usually makes herself scarce when they are around anyways. Today she seems to have picked up more and was playing with my sheets (because apparently all those toys she has aren't nearly as much fun). We have an appointment for 2:20 so I will update after

So it looks like her colon has twisted and she might need surgery. The X-rays are showing a lot of gas that isn't passing so they are taking another X-ray and will send blood work tonight.

Aw crap, Kristin. I'm so sorry to hear that. Keeping my fingers & toes crossed for a good outcome for Zeddie. And take good care of you too. We all understand how difficult it is for moms when their babes are sick.
