Sick Kitten

[wednes]

Clarence seems to be very sick. She has not been eating and has mostly just been laying around since the move. I expected both cats to take some time to adjust, but she seems to be losing wieght and keeps throwing up white or yellow foamy stuff in tiny amounts all over the place.

I can't really afford to take her to the vet, but I will if this keeps up. I just didn't want to spend my whole disability allotment on a vet bill.

Anyone know what might be causing this? Is it just stress of moving or could it be something more serious? How long should I wait before I take her to the vet? What can I do for her in the meantime? I'm giving her tuna in small amounts, which she seems to be eating a bit of. Other than that I don't know what to do for her.

That sounds encouraging! One of our vets told me about the tuna, mainly not to give it too often or if there's stomach trouble. I try not to give our kitties much people food either. They definitely get tuna treats occasionally, cuz they do love it, too. (and there was the one kitty we had who loved raw veggies ...)

Sounds like Clarence is coming around, though. I'll keep my fingers crossed for her.

Thanks.

If my neighbor continues not to password protect her isp, I'll keep everyone posted. ;-)

My cable/i-net is not to be installed until the 9th.
