Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


You should have seen her when she escaped from the carrier at the vets today, she was tearing around the reception area as if her tail was on fire, eyes dilated and trying to claw her way through the windows...staff yelling "loose cat" and all the dogs waiting became very interested in what was happening....

Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


Lol! Sorry Eileen, but I can just see her running loose, and all of you running after her! I'd just have the whole bottle of martini if I were you.

Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


I have no experience of that antibiotic Eileen, so I don't know how palatable it is?

Fran, I don't plan on tasting it myself (joking!). .....yes, Alex, looking back on it now I can see the funny side...t'waren't funny at the time, but it must have been a sight to behold......

Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


It's bound to be nerve-wracking if you've never had to give anything like this before Eileen ....... if need be, just give her a small spoonful of food at a time with a small drop of her med on it. If she eats it then continue a spoonful at a time until all the med has gone. Fingers crossed she will take it one way or the other....

Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


I so wished that I lived near to you Eileen so that I could come to help, I feel so helpless here. I realise how daunting it must be, Give Mags' suggestion a try and good luck!

Re: Leia just back from the vet!!


Fran, you all have helped greatly just being there and listening to me whinge! Believe me, it truly helps to know that your friends are listening and concerned...bless you all! As you may know, I'm mostly Irish and tend to overdramatize things a bit...not that you could really call me a drama queen...(snigger!) Probably all will go well with the medication & I've overdone the "poor, pitiful me" bit slightly...will report after dinner!
