[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 524155, member: 84"] Our shelters basically have nothing to do with cats. They're too overrun with dogs. It's something that amazed me when we moved to the area. Although before the super high unemployment rates it wasn't quite as bad as it is now. But even with dogs........they don't offer help with vets. They don't always treat the ones staying there for that matter. It's not uncommon to bring home a very sick dog from them. I've done it at least twice, barely managed to save them .......with a high vet bills to show for it due to medications ect. I'm not seeing the discharge like I was.......much less now. She's still acting fine, eating & drinking, purring and such. She doesn't seem to have a fever, at least her body doesn't feel overly warm. I don't think she's in heat.........or Bruce is the dumbest male cat on the planet, because he is NOT fixed, and he shows little interest other than Mom I don't want to share my house with Midnight. This is why I hate when this stuff happens over a weekend. There is nothing that can be done until monday, even if it's an emergency. I've been in this situation with furbabies before. Precious (basset) had her pups on a weekend (sunday) and had really awful complications due to a uterine infection....[B]still[/B] had to wait to take her to the vet until monday morning. Luckily she recovered ok.....although I swear it changed her temperament. I *might* be able to squeeze enough out of the budget for an office visit, our vet doesn't charge too bad........treatment is another matter, that's where it gets expensive, although they do what they can to keep cost down as much as possible. Any chance it could be GI related?? (I'm thinking both openings are in the same area) She's not had a BM in the litterbox......Although she doesn't seem the type to go munching on random things as I feed her and Minnie well......... Just once it would be nice that if something was gonna happen to a furbaby it would be when I can at least [B]talk[/B] to the darn vet. [/QUOTE]
