Misty - Blockage??


Can someone please advise me....

Misty has become very quiet over the last hour or so, she is not interested in food and is sitting hunched up looking really sad.... do you think the streamers she ate have now caused a blockage, as she last pooed Sunday am at the lastest.

Donna, I really think you should contact an emergency vet, it doesn't sound too good!

Re: Misty - Blockage??


Oh dear poor Misty. I hope she will be ok Donna and that the streamers havent caused any blockage or damage.
I used to have a cat that would eat the handles off of carrier bags, needless to say we would always try to keep them out of his grasp.
there was one time that he had a bit of carrier bag hanging from his butt, we gave him butter to try to ease the passage, vets advice but this was many years ago. Probably not such a good idea thinking about it now but thats what we were told to do.
Sorry thats no help Donna. Will have everything crossed that she is ok xxx

If in doubt Donna, call your vet out.

Re: Misty - Blockage??


My emergency vets have said that as she has not vomited it is not dangerous as yet.. they say she is probably in a bit of discomfort as she is a bit bunged up.

They said to keep an eye on her and if she vomits to phone them back immediately... luckily they are only five mins drive away...

Does this sound ok?

Will be up most of the night no doubt keeping an eye on her in case she is sick... she looks so miserable hiding away under my chair in the dining room.
