well..yesterday was pretty effed up. just another expample of how things get really bad once you think they’re ok again.

my mother came home from work, just another normal day. karen was going to come over to check out the kittens and possibly take one, and my mother was going to allow me to keep sundae because shes grown so attached to me…and then as we’re sitting at the kitchen table, we look down at kitty…and shes turned on her side and wide-eyed and staring off into space. when we try calling here she doesn’t respond. when we try picking her up shes all ridged and shaking..my cat was having a seizure. we called the vet that was just down the road and told them our cat was having seizures and needed to be taken in as an emergency and they fed us some bullshit about not being able to because she was never seen there before. fucking people i sware. so my mother had to take her to the other vets office that was 40 MINUTES AWAY, meanwhile kitty was working on her 3rd seizure. and to make things worse i had my ass hole step father on the phone who wouldn’t let me go because he needed me to look up information about the cure and when they’re touring in europe ><. so with that done and over with and kitty into her 5th seizure, my mother finally left for the vets office. she was gone a few hours, i was stressed and made dinner…cause the first thing i like to do when i’m stressed out is stuff my face. then my mother finally comes home in tears…and tells me the cat is blind…the seizures made her go blind. and i thought i was going to die…my poor kitty…no one could tell us what caused her to do this out of nowhere…and now shes blind…and scared…and theres nothing we could do about it….

the vet refered us to go to the animal hospital in redband NJ where they’d be able to perform the proper tests on her and take care of her through the night. so i called up joe to drive us because my mother was too shaken up…and we went to the animal hospital…was probably like 8 at night at the time. its a really really nice animal hospital. its huge o_o! and has a pretty fish tank….anyway, so they take kitty and let the vet look at her…and we’re called into a room after like 40 minutes. the vet says kitty is stabalized, they put a cathiter in her and have her on valium so she won’t seizure anymore. the vet can’t really determine whats going on with her till a few tests are run, so we agree to the tests, and see kitty one last time before we leave. she was all scared looking, smelt like alcohol and pickles, and had stuff stuck in her…my poor kitty….we left at like 11:30.

so i get a call from the vetirinary neurologist this morning to tell me whats up and how shes doing. she didn’t have anymore seizures through the night and seems to be stabalizing quite nicely. the first set of blood test showed nothing…so at this point it could be one of 3 things causeing the seizures. it could be epilepsy which is rare in a cat, it could be a metabolic disorder or disease meaning something wrong with her kidneys or liver or hormones, or it can be neurological meaning something wrong with her brain being it a tumor or a disease…to determin it they need to perform more testing. so at this point they’re going to do the metabolic testing to see if thats causeing it…and if not then the next step would be an MRI…and then we can only hope its nothing serious….

so the past 24 hours have been pretty effed up…and i’m going to go cry now.
