Please help me say a prayer for my poor TK! I had to rush.....literally rush him to the vet this morning because he's so sick! He developed diarrhea again, Radar too, and I've been helping them cope with that, but this morning all heck broke loose with TK. I've been so dissatified with my vet that I called a new vet office this morning and made both kittens an appointment for 3 pm today. Suddenly, TK starts throwing up.....7 times he threw up! Diarrhea pouring out the other end, he finally rested on my bed. I sat down to watch tv and TK suddenly showed up, demanding to be held, nasty butt and all. He started shaking and I checked his gums, a pale pale barely pink color! I decided to get dressed, and I found where he'd thrown up again............bright red blood!!! I immediately called this new vet and got clearance to rush him in. They were expecting us, and whisked us off to an exam room as soon as we walked in the door. TK is being hospitalized overnight for dehydration and ANEMIA again!!! Radar isn't quite as bad, so he'll most likely come home this afternoon. But get this, the vet explained to me that the treatment for hemobart is a pulse treatment! My vet didn't do that, I was given a 21 day supply of doxycycline for both kittens and that's it. They never said that we would need to pulse treat them, they considered them both "cured".
OMG, I just hope that TK will be alright! Please God let him be ok!!!
Editted to add: Radar is also sick and in the hospital at this point, but the vet feels that he will probably come home later this afternoon...........TK will have to spend his first night ever without his little bro!
