Drinking some aged DHP this morning from my brand-new, super-tiny gaiwan.
But I’m having a hard time focusing on the tea. Last night my family had to take Gracie to the vet – she was lethargic, not eating, and had collapsed on the floor near the litter box this morning. (I didn’t see her before I left for work. If I had looked for her then, would things have been different? We don’t know how long she was lying there for.)
The vet said last night that she was severely dehydrated, and it looked like she had lost a substantial amount of weight in the past few days. She’s stayed at the vet’s office overnight, but since the office isn’t open yet, I have no idea how she’s doing. The vet won’t open for another 20 minutes. Will they call right away?
Gracie is 17 years old, guys. She’s a wonderful cat, but she’s getting old. I’ve had her for over half my life. I can’t her being gone, but I know it will have to happen one day. Will she be okay? Could I have done anything differently if I had looked for her before I left?

Thinking of you, Christina. I can relate to wondering how things would have been had you acted differently, but remember that they could have also turned out worse, too. Also, the waiting is often the worst part. Hang in there hugs

So sorry to hear. Hope things turn out well. Don’t blame yourself, though. Old kitties just get old.
