Miss Boo Went To The Vet


During the past week I noticed a dry cough that Boo was
exhibiting. It only lasted a few seconds & I only saw it
happen once off and on for a few days.
But it persisted.
Then to top it off I noticed her scooting on the carpet.
So, I knew she needed to visit the Vet.
So bloodwork, exam, xrays and one consult later
and we know that Boo is in the beginning stages of
heart disease. She is scheduled for an echocardiogram
next month to find out exactly what shape her heart is in.
That cough is probably related to Asthma.
A very very minor case.
It is not related at all to her heart.
We are awaiting the echo before any medication is added,
if any is needed.
Her respiration is super good. Less than 30 breaths a minute.
Oh yes, unfortunately much to her dignity being slapped 
in the face, she had to have her anal glands expressed
and they truly needed it. So to top off all the indignity
she will have to have that done more often.
So please keep her in your purrs & prayers.

  18. Our best to Boo! It's a good thing you noticed the cough and took it seriously, and that's what got her in for an exam. Those things are often ignored.

  23. Oh no! Boo, we sure hope the results show your heart to be in good shape overall. We're so sorry to hear this. Sorry about your bottom too. Pierrot has to have that done every so often (he scoots regularly unfortunately) and he doesn't like it either. It's so good you went to the vet even though it was for something entirely different. Purrs to you and your mom!

  26. Sending healing purrz. Since when did expressing anal glands become so popular. Vets are kinky. I’ve sneezed a few times. TW is thinking Fall allergy season. She’s gonna have to start wetting me down.

  31. Oh poor Miss Boo.....I'll send you a pile of POTP to help. Let's hope the heart thing won't require meds AND the asthma isn't serious. As for the anal glads well nothing makes that FUN but it is necessary right? Sending you hugs....maybe those will help too!
