not as cool as inception. not at all actually.
so we took Moose to another vet today. a vet in ventura. kinda far but more reasonable prices and a way more personable staff. i just feel more comfortable with her and timmy agrees.
so she went over the records from the other vet with us and did her own exam. she did the ultrasound hopeful it would be something simple with the liver or something. but basically she said she found what was probably the worst case scenario at this point. she drained his tummy to get a better read on the ultrasound and make him more comfortable (and he feels so much lighter and perkier.. probably doesn't hurt to breath..) she said he has a possible intussesception. and she said that thats caused by irritation on the intestines or something (might be saying it wrong) which could be caused by FIP. so... he could have FIP AND intussesception on top of it. or just intussesception which really isn't any better... his stomach was so big because the intestines fold over... making the correct passage too small and the food gets caught in the folds.. so his belly gets huge. this is the best picture i could find of what she explained. she said sometimes (and i know i wont explain it right), in a very rare percent.. the folds will break off and heal at the right spots and the cat will poop out the folded part. but they have to break at the same time or something in order for them to heal right... idk. i can't explain things.
she said to keep giving him the clavomox and gave us some new antibiotics to kill bacteria that grows in stomachs when food is backed up. she also said to cut the dosage of predisone in half. she took another fluid sample and sent it to a lab for a different and what she says is a better test. we wont get the results until Thursday but she is going to call Tuesday or Wednesday to make sure everything is fine. She was so thorough and explained things perfectly. I wish all vets were like this. we're going through a nightmare and she seems to get it, unlike the last vets. and they just had such a negative attitude towards things.
Moose fell asleep purring on my lap on the ride home. When we got home he seemed a little weak and wobbly but probably from having fluid drained. He's been slowly following me if i leave a room. uhg. i love him so much...
did you know babies can get intussesception?? g's i can't even imagine how horrible. we were talking in the car on the ride home. no matter the result, we're done buying pets. At least for a while. and by while i mean years and years. It would be the worst if we had a sick baby and sick pet and we couldn't afford to treat both and had to choose. of course you pick your baby, and i hate the thought of not being able to care for my pets. Especially my Jefri.
other than that... just been cleaning around the house. took a nap with moose and slept through dinner. so did timmy.
chase and monica are confusing me. i really like them and i was hoping we would become really close and stuff. but. i don't think they like me. we've been asking them to hang out for a while. the last time we did we went to a movie in northridge close to their house. and tim has been asking if they want to hang out and stuff and they keep saying yeah but not setting up a time and we ask specific days and they get really wishy washy. or say maybe tomorrow or something. and today he asked them if they had any plans tonight and they said "i dont know" nothing else.. just kind of awkwardly trying to avoid the question you know? idk. I think its because of me. i don't think Monica likes me because i don't think she thinks I like her. its silly. but i don't know what to say. i DO like her. i don't know how to talk to girls. i think she is really cool and like her style and she's funny and fun to be around and i would like getting to know her better. but i dont know how. same with stephnie. but i can't seem to make friends with girls. like good close friends. but yeah, it just seems that maybe they don't want to hang out at all and possibly that reason is dislike for me. or another theory is maybe they hate driving over here. but. we went over there the last time. and its just easier to hang out here. and they know what is going on with moose right now and they know we dont want to really leave him alone for too long. idk. its weird.
Anyways.
