Poor little Poppy!
Poor little us:
We came downstairs this morning to find several pools of catsick throughout! Not pleasant first thing on a Monday morning!
Anyway, she seemed really lethargic and unwell when I popped home at lunchtime, so it was straight to the vets this evening. One temperature reading later (A strange look of surprise was evident on her face at this point); an injection of antibiotics, and a couple of attempts to take bloods - not to mention a hefty vet bill to contend with - we got back home, still none the wiser as to what's wrong with her, but a vast amount of tablets and syrups to try to give her, and a strict diet of chicken and fish to feed her until she gets better!
Poor Poppy!
Poor us!!

Crazy cat is right, Jim - but you've only seen her on her good days!
Nikki Harman 15-Oct-2003 21:08
Yep, she's getting better, now! She doesn't like taking the medication, much though!!

What's unusual about a cat trying to climb up the walls??! LOL I feel bad for poor Poppy (and Poppy's owners :>), but you did take a very nice shot here, Nikki. The DOF is well done - and the pose is... well... pathetically sad! :> Hope Poppy is better soon!

Climbing up the walls? She must be better :->

Thanks! Poppy is certainly a lot more sprightly than yesterday, although we suffered a bad night last night as she was hallucinating and trying to climb up the walls!!!!!

Thanks Tinky and Lister - I'll pass your puddy tat comments on to Poppy!!!!!

I hope she feels better soon, She looks so sad :-(, even though it is a lovely shot.
