    Tigger our 18 year old cat seems to be very ill all of a sudden, she was OK when OH came in from work but wouldnt eat her dinner, she has been in her bed since then and she has just let out a couple of really haunting cries and seems unable to lift her head up.

    Her breathing is very shallow and rasping, I think she may have had a massive stroke but we dont want to move her...........should we just let her slip away..........this is so upsetting:(
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • Hi Beanie. We've not had frost yet.

    Aw Lou, I'm really sorry to hear that.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Her pupils are completely dialated and the only sign of life is a tiny murmur and shallow breathing........I should call the vets really.

    I will do that now.

    I've had the two and a half hours that my tv will let me watch :( I think I'm going to have to add the 20p's to the change pot that I'm saving up for a new one with, it's not going to last much longer. At least I get 20% off at Currys.

    Hiya

    Not been round these parts for a while, I have a 'spare' portable that you are welcome to [as long as it still works] if you want it. I was gonna say if you cover the postage I will send it to you but I notice we're in the same city.

    Hope my offer doesn't offend, just sending in the true spirit of DFW (as opposed to the yacht or the roller ;))

    Aw, thanks Tig, I can manage with what I've got, there's always the one in the bedroom.

    Woohoo, my printer wouldn't install, but I managed to figure it out and get it sorted all on my own! It's still not printing but that's cos it's an !!!! and never does what I want it to, when I want it to anyway. It'll probably deign to let me have my stuff sometime in the middle of the night.
