Where the Man Cat tells you I AM NOT A PANSY MEEZER!

Dudes (And ladies). Thanks for the purrs, they've really helped me while I've been in this miserable steel hell-hole. They knocked me out. They x-rayed my insides, ultrasounded me, stuck far too many needles in me, and stole way too much blood.

What can I say, I'm a rock. All test came back inconclusive. Just as the vet was about to scratch his head and move on to the next horrific torture the humans figured something out.

Kaze now has the runs. And Latte's poos is heading there. Yeah, can you say VIRUS? You know, not something worth subjecting me to the hell of the vet for so long. No idea how it got in the house or why but generally everyone is jumping up and down and doing happy dances.

Yet still I sit in my prison cell while they "monitor" me and starve me to death. I need an escape plan, who's in with busting me out? Apparently I get to go home this evening.

(The Woman:)
Hi all, thank you SO much for all of your kind thoughts and worries about Chase, they have been such a comfort. I found Kaze's case of the runs last night and just about screamed for joy (though I'm sure she's less than thrilled). Called the vet first thing this morning and he was quite relieved as well. We'll be getting our big teddy bear back this evening and I fully expect to be shunned for a while. Though I did make the Awesome Man come with me when we dropped him off so maybe I won't get all of the blame?

We are sorry that everycat has poo puddles now, but at least it indicates something brief and benign! Feel better soon!

Yay! Yay! Yay! We're so glad about everybody's poo problems! (Well, you know what I mean). What a relief! I was thinking about it last night and was going to email you this morning. We had a similar thing a couple of years ago. Everyone ended up getting it, but it was scary for a couple of days when it was just EG.
FWIW, I usually make the hubby drop them off, so I can pick them up and be the good guy. ;)
We're so glad that Chase gets to come home today. Please give the big guy a scritch from us. Please give those sweet meezer babies some love from us, too. We hope everyone feels better soon.

YAY! Sorry that you now all have the runs, though. We believe the best suited exclamation is "POO!!!" Are you all on some kind of medication/restricted diet until it's over?

BIG PURRS and little woofs,
The Chans and Tommy

Well I hope that everyone starts feeling better. What a nightmare that sounds like.

Angel Junior, Orion and Sammy said...

Wow! So many happenings while Meowm was gone! We are glad she got back so we could come over and find out what had been happening!

We are very glad you are being sprung from the horrible v-e-t place Chase!

We hope you all get to feeling better quickly!!!!

May your poo puddles turn into sun puddles soon...glad the tests so far have eliminated many things!

Max said...

I'm sorry everyone is getting it, but I'm glad it pointed to what was wrong with Chase. Being sick sucks but the not knowing sucks harder...

Glad you get to go home, Chase!

We never thought we would say it, but, Yayyy for viruses!! We are very glad that it is not something bad. Now we will purr for all of you to get rid of that nasty old poopy virus.

Whew & hurrah for the virus!
Smoochies!

The Island Cats said...

Well, at least you know now what is going on! We hope everycat feels better real soon!!

Niko and Cloud said...

Hi Chase! Have they tested you for coccidia yet? That is a parasite that can have symptoms like you have and is easily spread from cat to cat. I had it when I was a baby and my symptoms were just like yours.
In any case, hope all 3 of you feel better soon!

Purrs
Niko (and Cloud)

Just Ducky said...

So glad you figured out what it is. It's bad enough to be sick but to have to be at the vet's .... Glad Chase is home.

And a Happy Birthday to Chase. We hope he is feeling better by now!

Zippy, Sadie, Speedy and M'Gee said...

Glad to hear it was a virus and not something way more serious!

Samantha & Mom said...

Happy Birthday Chase and we are glad you are home and it's just a virus!!
Happy homecoming, too!!
Your TX furiends,

Skeezix the Cat said...

Poor Chase. What a berthday. When yoo are paroled and bak in the howse, yer mom and dad should rub you (to get yer smell), then rub Kaze, go back and rub you, then rub Latte. If you are successful in mingling thare sents, they are less likely to treat Chase like an outcast.

Craig & Caroline Hind said...

Aw sorry we missed all of this, but we're glad you're getting better and get to come home! Being in the prison really sucks.

Rosemary B❤️ said...

Get better kitties.
I was sick too but it turned out... finally after two months of diarrhea, they finally got a positive sample of giardia. Mom was pissed... but she does not have to take the meds so I don't see what her problem is.

bonks for all of you
