Chance has been ill for a few days. Her symptoms mimic Jedi’s in that she is dripping stool- yet still eating and drinking. I talked with Dr. Steve yesterday and he said that all they are doing on their end for Jedi is feeding her, giving her Baytril and watching her. Not even needing supportive fluids. IF this were distemper, these cats wouldn’t be eating. Chancy goes nuts when I am opening cans for the other cats and she has a voracious appetite. Yes, she has been dewormed several times. All she wants me to do is sit and cuddle with her and she screams bloody murder after she uses the pan. It’s as if she is saying “MOM! Get this stinky mess outta here!”
Chancy was running a fever, she is no longer doing so. I hear her caterwauling in the distance so it is time for me to grab her towel, wrap her up and sit with her giving her comfort. Please pray the results coming in tomorrow or Tuesday will give us some answers-So much for my dirty house needing cleaning. Chancy is more important.
It doesn’t seem as if the doctors know what’s going on, either. Good luck to Chancy and Jedi Knight.

It is showing up in a lot of dogs, but also in cats and other animals. Might be worth it for your vet to see. I hope Jedi and Chancy are feeling better soon. <3
