Hi,
My original post about Meetoo was about her arthritis but her blood test came
back and the vet said her calcium is high. Her potassium is low. She also has
an elevated heart rate. They are keeping her overnight to give her an IV
containing potassium and some insulin.
 I did not speak to the vet myself but I will about an hour from now. My
mother had spoken to the vet and the vet wanted Meetoo to check in right away.
Meetoo already takes 100ml of fluids for her kidneys daily.
I don't know what any of this new stuff in the IV means.
If any of what I've written is familiar to anyone, please respond. I keep
telling myself she's in good hands at the vet. I'm scared anyway.
Thank you,
Susan

Sorry I can't give you any advice, but we'll send you positive vibrations
for Meetoo and for you, too.

Same here.  I'm worried with you and my kitties send purrs.

And I as well. She is surely better at the vet with an IV giving her what
she needs. Sending good vibes. Keep us posted.

Hi Susan,
It really does sound like Meetoo is in good hands and I'm sure the vet is doing
everything to make her comfortable and to feel better.  Sending lots of healing
purrs,

Lauren
