Hi Everyone,

Just a little update to say that (fingers crossed) Nina seems a lot better today

Without getting my hopes up she just looks a bit thin and tired but she is pottering about chirruping and rolled over for a tummy rub earlier. Eating plenty and using the tray no problems.

So we will see what Catherine the vet says tomorrow evening.

Does anybody have any tips how we can get her nice and clean again from where she wee-ed on herself yesterday? Have wiped her down but she is still a bit smelly, can I just use sensitive shampoo?

I don't think you can use human shampoos, fragrance free baby wipes should do the job

Just caught up with poor Nina's ordeal.
Wishing her a speedy recovery....

I wonder if she had a reaction to the Marbocil?

She hadn't had it Des, that's the mystery?

Had a pretty restless night, she was still holding her head to one side and walked into a few things but she has had her next dose of meds (Thanks to her dad) and is much brighter this morning

She even struggled when Jon was trying to pill her this morning

Have installed her in the spare bedroom with some nice comfy blankets and she was purring away when I left this morning which was a relief to hear. Oh, and she has used the litter tray

God bless Gibson he keeps trying to clean her which isn't going down too well, a little cuddle she will tolerate, a cleaning not so much.

Fingers crossed it is nothing too serious, I wonder if she had a reaction to the Marbocil?

Glad she's home

Glad you're just starting your annual leave too as that will help both of you I'm sure

So glad Nina is home and eating.

having those two weeks off is going to help such a lot, as you will be able to concentrate on Nina without worrying about work

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #54 on:** July 28, 2009, 21:18:27 PM »

Pleased she is home and eating cos livers need food and I do hope she improves from ther meds

clarenmax · « **Reply #53 on:** July 28, 2009, 20:50:30 PM »

So pleased she's back home, give her a gentle cuddle from me

bonnielass · « **Reply #52 on:** July 28, 2009, 19:57:29 PM »

Just caught up with this thread, im glad your little girl is back home and hope she soon picks up and the meds do the trick

Janeyk · « **Reply #51 on:** July 28, 2009, 19:41:04 PM »

Glad she is home with you, settled and having a munch. Hopefully the meds will soon help her feel much better, lots of gentle cuddles for Nina me thinks

Wibblechick · « **Reply #50 on:** July 28, 2009, 19:36:30 PM »

Youre very welcome

Hope you have a good night - will be thinking of you

ems · « **Reply #49 on:** July 28, 2009, 19:27:01 PM »

Thanks everyone

Well her bloods showed increased liver enzymes and white blood cells, she has been given more antibiotics ( amoxycare 10mg) and some Hepatocyl and is going back to the vets on Friday. The vets feeling is that she doesn't want to open Nina up to have a look at her liver at present and I agree, so we will see how the tablets go and take it day by day.

She is still very dazed and confused and struggling to get about, she has also wee-ed in the carrier so is very smelly at present. Jon has just given her the medication and I think we are going to try and clean her down in a bit. Just don't want to stress her out too much so am just putting throws down for her to sleep on which are easily washed. And will have a busy few days sponging the couch down I think.

She is just having some tea (Ocean Fish Applaws) and having a cuddle with Gibson (which is v.strange!) but is purring away and trying to have a little wash

Am going to sleep in the spare room with her tonight to make sure she is ok, and am only in work for a few hours tomorrow then by coincidence am at home for nearly 2 weeks on annual leave.

Will keep you all updated, thanks for all the support, it is very much appreciated.

Just in jon's car on the way to pick my baby girl up. It's definately something to do with her liver function. I'll do a full post when I get home.

Thanks for the good wishes everyone

Bloomin bosses who have no feelings

I am so sorry she is worse and sadly I think it sounds a neuro problem cos was reading Janeyk s guide to them a couple of days ago cos of Franta.

Sending lots of love to Nina and you and hope that the vet can help her get better

I take it that your boss doesnt consider cats as family

Obviously not, and what makes me laugh is that he has a dog so I thought he would understand. Unfortunately I think if it had been Gibson (God forbid) he might have had a different response.

Ems hun, do you have to stay in work today?

Well I was half an hour late (I had left a message and explained i was going to the vets) and my boss was on the phone saying it was essential I was in to meet up with him at 12

Just what I need.

I knew she was feeling very poorly when she didn't serenade me all the way to the vets in the car

Janeyk · « **Reply #30 on:** July 28, 2009, 09:44:08 AM »

hope the vet sorts her soon poor girl xx

Wibblechick · « **Reply #29 on:** July 28, 2009, 09:44:01 AM »

Oh, No!!

Sending loads of healing vibes for Nina - and lots of these for you

clarenmax · « **Reply #28 on:** July 28, 2009, 09:43:18 AM »

Ems hun, do you have to stay in work today? Saying that though, maybe being at work will make the time until you hear from the vets go a bit quicker and help take your mind of your worry a tiny bit

Hopefully they'll be able to work out quickly what is going on.

I feel for you hunnie, topping up with tons more positive vibes for you both

ems · « **Reply #27 on:** July 28, 2009, 09:41:07 AM »

It's a good job I took her in straight away this morning as she was worse again when we got the vets, she can't stand up now

They are keeping her in today and doing bloods screens today and giving me a call later, they have said it is either kidney/liver function or neurological

Will update when I know more, am so upset in work now

clarenmax · « **Reply #26 on:** July 28, 2009, 08:43:30 AM »

Best of luck babe, hope Nina gets seen quickly

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #25 on:** July 28, 2009, 08:22:26 AM »
