Max kitty update.



Called the vet this morning, after I dropped Mark off at work. Explained what Max was doing/acting/looking like. They said definitely bring him in, as the not eating for nearly a day can be an indicator of something bad, as well as the yellow tinge to his eyes and skin.

He did eat a bit this morning, and isn't AS yellow, but is STILL yellow.

So, pulled out the kennal as I called Mark to let him know what was up. He wanted me to come get him from work, so he could go too. Got Max and a blanket in the kennal and into the car.

Max hates car rides, usually he yeowls his head off. This car ride? Hardly any yeowling, very little clawing at the walls to get out. So yeah, something's wrong.

Get to the vet, and take him out of his carrier. Dr Nelson comes out and says yes, definitely jaundiced, good for me for me so observant.

Verdict?

They're keeping him for full bloodwork, possible x-ray of his liver and observation. They'll call me and let me know whether we can pick him back up today or what's going on. I fully expect that he'll have to stay overnight.

Right now, I'm trying not to stress out too much , not more than I already have, and I'm trying NOT to think of worst case scenarios.}:(

More news when I get it.
