Our wings are not tired.

I am afraid seeing a movie filled with babies would just hurt too much.

The status is NOT quo.

Java, yeah, that's probably part of it for me too. Hugs.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Hugs & hairpats.

I'm exhausted and it's not even 1:30. Hungry. Stinky. But, I am sitting in Fluffy surrounded by boxes in my new apartment. Movers called at SIX AM!! WTF? Later he heard me say that on the phone, and said "we on east coast time. I called you at 9am". Um. No. 4 hours to unpack the truck. I have 2 of the 5 kitchen boxes done. The kitchen is my goal today. Tomorrow is living room. Need help in boxing the tv. Oy. Moving sucks.

Good luck, hon.

I am sitting in Fluffy

Then everything's gonna be alright.

“Not dead yet!”

Well, a quick visit to the vet and Moosh seems to be okay for the moment. Doc gave him an anti-naseau med shot and I've just cooked up a huge batch of ground beef and rice with absolutely NO seasoning whatsoever. As soon as it cools off, we'll see if he's interested in eating.

Tummy-soothing~ma for the four-leggers who ain't feeling so good.

Work ~ma for you, Andi.

And Moosh definitely seems to be feeling better. Our first try at the ground beef/rice combo went well. He ate it quite happily and more importantly, has kept it down, so it seems as if he just had a tummy bug of some sort.

And let me tell you, trying to feed a 70 pound dog Pepto when He Doesn't Want It is not fun. At least it was the tablets and not the liquid.

Yep, that would definitely be a hot pink mess.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm fretting over whether I should take Leo to the emergency vet. He trotted up and down the stairs with no reluctance, and stretched, so he doesn't appear to be in pain, he's just listless and quiet and has been hiding all day. He only came out because I disturbed him by opening the box and looking at him. Now he's staring out the open window, which at least shows more interest in his favorite things than he had this morning. Should I wait 24 hours from first barf and see if it's just an upset tummy? Maybe he ate a bug. I'm sorting through everything in the kitchen counter catch-all to see if he chewed off a piece of something and maybe swallowed it.

Zenkitty, the symptoms you have seen are (repeated) vomiting, lethargy, and hiding? In your shoes, I would be doing a watch-and-wait. Possibly freaking out, but at a lower decibel level than I do when there are frequent visits to the litter box. Just in case anything else of interest becomes apparent, here is a checklist to help sort out when emergency treatment is needed: [link]
