Last week the Mom took me on a trip to see Dr. Stabby again. Dr. Stabby told the Mom that she wanted to sedate me (with the surgical gas anesthesia) to get a UA and x-rays of my chest. The Mom did not have a good feeling about that, but she reluctantly agreed. But the more she thought about it, the more she said she didn't want me going under anesthesia because I am getting older, and it is risky for any kitty, let alone one who has been struggling with asthma. She and I don't understand why Dr. Stabby seems so scared of me anyway. I am a good cat! Just because I scream doesn't mean they should sedate me.
In any case, they did not sedate me because the Mom told them I have been having daily asthma attacks and she didn't think it was a good idea. They did not get an x-ray of me or a UA. They didn't even try.
Dr. Stabby decided to add Terbutaline to my Prednisolone twice a day for my asthma, but I am still having asthma attacks every day.
The fill-in vet will be in this week, and the Mom says she will try to get an appointment with her. The fill-in vet has a much calmer energy and I don't scream with her. The Mom says she thinks I need to have a chest x-ray done to make sure I am not having pneumonia again because I acted similarly when I had that.
I keep telling him he should eat more like me, but he just doesn't. I don't know why. Food is SO GOOD!! He is still pretty
Dang Malita, we sure hope you can stop that weezie stuff, it's downright scary. Hopefully it will settle down soon. Hugs from all of us sweet girl.
ReplyDeleteUGH, asthma is SO not fun! Purrs to you!!!
ReplyDeleteWe sure hope you can get that naughty asthma under good control.
ReplyDeleteCarmine you gotta eat! As if we should mew about that, just talk to Minko. MOL!
We sure send lots of purrs to you Malita and hope that asthma goes away soon. That isn't any fun.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that you are having asthma attacks. Those are no fun. I agree with your mom about not letting you be sedated. Dr. Stabby needs to not be a scaredy cat! MOL! MOL!
ReplyDeleteMom is very worried about Fiona. They are going to the vet in the morning. She has suddenly lost a lot of weight and is not eating anything but Temptations. She's always been a super picky eater, but Mom knows something is going on. Sending lots of purrs and prayers to both of you.

ReplyDeleteWe hope those drugs works and help you ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteDr Stabby is a scary name to start with, I would scream too if my Dr had that name. Milita your New Year's resolution needs to be "GET BETTER". Hope you get to feeling better soon. Keep us up to date on your progress and keep being good cuz Santa Paws is coming soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get to see the fill in vet, Milita. It is not very good for Dr Stabby to be scared of you. Is there another regular vet that you can see because it might be better for both of you.
ReplyDeleteAsthma is scary stuff. We hope you get to see the fill in vet and can get some answers, Milita.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are going through so much. {{{hugs}}}
ReplyDeleteOh dear. I'll start purring for you right now. We don't want anyone sick for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get those x-rays soon, Milita! My human says you should have the Aerokat very soon - she mailed it last week and according to the USPS, it arrived in Denver today.
ReplyDeleteMom says it is so stressful having a sick kitty. She doesn't know how you are managing with two!
ReplyDeleteOh Milita, we're sorry you're having so many asthma attacks. And we're purring for Carmine too and hope he starts eating more.
ReplyDeleteBy asthma attack, do you mean coughing fit? Could you be allergic to the food? Something is not right.
ReplyDeleteWe're so worried about you guys. We're sending lots of prayers and purrs. Mommy will send Reiki, too!
ReplyDeleteHi Milita. We are sending tons of purrs and prayers that you breath better real soon and that Carmine eats more.
ReplyDeleteLove you kittys and Mom. Have a Merry Christmas and Better New Year!
Timmy, Dad Pete and Family
sorry you have to go through all of this. Maybe, since you don't seem to care for "Dr.Stabby" why don't you just switch and go to the "fill-in" doctor? catchatwithcarenandcody
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you both fell better soon.
