Welcome back, Pix!
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I went to Orange County for a couple of days for my birthday (Friday afternoon - Sunday evening) and since I've been back my cat's not acting right. At first I thought she was just punishing me (hiding, pooping next to the litter box) for going away a couple of days, but now I'm concerned about her. She hasn't eaten in a couple of days I think and when she moves from one spot to another (still mostly avoiding me), she's moving slow and staggering a bit. I think I should try to get her to a vet, except she's still hard to catch and I don't want to drive her into a panic when she's obviously feeling poorly (half-grown, semi-feral when we took her in - still not a fan of people AT ALL and hasn't been to the vet since she was spayed [that whole not being able to catch her thing]). Right now I'm just leaving her alone and making sure she's got water near by if she wants it. Monday and yesterday I was still hoping she might bounce back, now I don't know what to do ... if anything.

The status is NOT quo.
Epic, I hate to say this, but I do think you should take her to the vet. Cats not eating for more than a couple of days can lead to serious problems, including pancreatitis. If they can give her fluids tonight, that will help her recover.

Yeah, unfortunately, those are all red go to the vet flags.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh no, Epic! That does sound concerning. I hope you can get her to the vet without too much problem.

I'll get the carrier from the garage and see if I can get her into it. This is really a shitty start to my 53rd year. (See message in Beep Me)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
The heat wave continues here.The drive home wasn't too bad, considering that the a/c is not working well and the temps were in the 90s. Probably helps that my car is parked in a garage all day, away from the sun.

I hope the new treatment is helpful, Epic, and that you can get your cat to the vet with minimal issues.

Dammit. I'm so sorry, Epic.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Oh Epic, that is sucky. I am so sorry.
Ooh, that is a nice looking happy hour! $2 oysters is pretty good! I still want to be able to get them for a quarter but I know that's not a thing that will happen.
I couldn’t figure out why I was dreaming about oysters but I think this might be it.
