Title: Sly vets and ET the blue cat update
Post by: Kate on May 29, 2008, 20:24:12 PM
Well me and my little newly defined blue persian are back from the vets. naughty ET would not let them take a blood sample so back next wek to try thyroid test again. Vet still insists 4 pouches is an abnormal amount of food. 60g wieght gain this wek - at 3% of her bodywieght dos not seem too bad. Anyway whiel I was there vet nurse brought out a five week old feral kitten she had rescued only yesterday with the words "she needs a home"! Sly vets!! Cutest thing ever. Anyway I would have loved to have her but ET needs me right now. happily I think I have found her a home in farmhouse in somerset, with parents of a friend, mad cat ppl, - ideal! they are getting in touch with vet nurse tomorrow to talk.

Poor ET - ask the vets to put an anaesthetic gel on her neck first, it is the only way we can get blood out of Molly. I can't understand why the vets are thinking 4 pouches is too much if she only eats wet though.

I agree with Desley on the food and why dont some verts seem to care about how a cat feels when thses procedures are carried out grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I dont think that four pouches is too much.
And what naughty sly vets they are, but at least kitten will hopefully have a new home home.

4 pouches for an underweight cat isnt loads, maybe they think she should only have 40g of bix a day and thats that. Try not to worry about it  :hug:
