safe travels Sparky!
Teppy - I hope the vertigo is better today.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm at work today -- the vertigo is better, but not gone. Driving was fine, because the vertigo is only bad if I tip my head backwards to look straight up, and of course I don't need to do that when I drive.
All I have to do is just SIT STILL today, and I should be fine. And I can sit still; I'm quite good at that.

Dang- Taz seems lethargic and eating less. He doesn't seem to be in any pain, but he's not confident jumping up to the bed (he does, but after a few dry runs) and he's slow going up the stairs, and he hasn't been in his windo perch, and he just stays in one spot for hours and hours and hours. I mean, even for a cat it's worrying.
Should we call the vet? We are worried.

I posted a note in F2F asking Steph how her ears were - sounds like they've improved (mine have too - yay!).
When I had vertigo I found that when I was walking, if I focused on a stationary object at a distance from me and kept looking at it I didn't get as dizzy walking. It may help.

I called the vet and they said it sounded like Taz should come in.
This is upsetting.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I know, Nora, but hopefully it's nothing much. Just better to check it out.
Safe travels, Sparky! Have a great time!

Try to keep your spirits up Nora. As long as Taz isn't hiding, which cats do when they are really hurting, he is probably just uncomfortable....

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

You already have called, which was what I was going to advise. Try not to be too worried, as there are any number of simple, easy-to-treat explanations of these symptoms. Hairballs and worms are the top two.
Sending out the kitty~ma for Taz.

Thanks guys, he's going in this afternoon.
It's really just on top of everything else as well. Blergh.
