Jo Firey...
As usual, I feel like a bad mommy for not noticing sooner. Jake has been a
little listless the last couple of weeks. We noticed and chalked it up to
the weather. I'd stay in bed all day too if I could get away with it.

Purrs for Jake. It's hard to tell sometimes.


Wednesday night he didn't come to bed. That is almost unheard of. But
Kayla has been annoying him, etc. Thursday, I checked him over for injuries
and lifted him up to the food and water bowls. He ate but didn't drink.

He turned his back on his nightly glass of ice water last night, and opted
to sleep on the floor again, so this morning we called the vet. All they
found is that he has a very high fever. Some kind of systemic infection.
So he got a shot and we got pills for the next ten days.

He already seems to feel better. But we will still take any recovery purrs

Poor Jake! It must be very unsettling not to know what's wrong. But
if he gets better, then I guess it doesn't matter. Which I certainly
hope he does, as quickly as possible!

Purrs for you and Jake.


Adrian A...
Poor Jake, purrs for a rapid recovery.

Poor Jake! The Highland Kitties are sending their best Get Better Soon
purrs his way.

Glad to hear that the antibiotics are already starting to work.


glsummer...
You got it, Jo. Purrs for Jake to perk up and be back to normal very

jmcquown...
Purrs for Jake on the way. Poor fella.


kilikini...
Purrs on the way. Please keep us updated!


Jo Firey...
I know, it can be very frustrating. Doesn't help that they purr both when
they are happy and when they aren't.

Jake was purring so hard at the vet, they had a hard time listening to his
chest.

He already seems very much his old self. Takes his pills nicely, was back
between our pillows for the night etc. He is responding very well to the
antibiotics.

Wayne Mitchell...
Good to hear. Purrs that he continues to improve.


jXwXeXrXmXoXnXt...
I'm really glad to hear that!


Karen...
Purrs for Jake. I hope he recovers quikcly.


W. Leong...
Purrs going out to Jake. Rusty is currently recovering from a urinary
infection.
Looking back, there were signs that I did think much of at the time, but
they
all pointed to something not quite right.


Sam...
On the way, Jo. Sick young'uns (furred or bare) are no fun.

I'm so happy to hear Jake is feeling so much better already.
Lots of purrs and best wishes,
Polonca and Soncek
