Cat is back in kitty hospital
They are mostly concerned about the fact she's still not eating and her temperature is still raised. So another £500-£600 for today, and then £250 a night if she's not ready to come home tomorrow. Plus the likelihood of further tests and investigations because nothing major showed in her bloods and urine from yesterday apart from very mild kidney disease. They are not sure what is causing the dramatic weight loss and this temperature etc as it's not like she's even been going out to catch anything.
I am extremely grateful for the fact that I've got an empty CC I can put it on for now, and then will be able to transfer from my PBs. It makes the whole thing so much less stressful than it would be if I was wondering how to pay."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

Thank you both. They've just called and said she's perked up and eaten, so hopefully she'll be home tomorrow 🤞🤞WinterWarrior said:Oh no, poor kitty.
