Queen Mab's Malady

This morning, I'm off to take Mab to a specialist at the School of Veterinary Medicine to hopefully shed light on months of illness. Her regular vet has treated her but the problem persists. Hoping and praying it is nothing serious and can be remedied. I'm prepared to move heaven and earth to make her well.

  4. Poor little dear. My kitties and I wish her a miraculous recovery. I know how you feel, I've got 3 elderly lady felines and we have had many doctors visits this year.

  6. Thanks everyone! After a round of tests that included ultrasounds, the hospital gave Mab a clean bill of physical health. Her issues are apparently behavioral in nature.

    We'll see if we can't determine why her little cataloons are in a bunch.

  7. Oh, I'm so glad there's nothing physically wrong with her! Of course, it still doesn't solve the problem. I hope you can figure out why she's behaving the way she is. Good luck to you, dear, I know how hard it can be to cope with our furry friends sometimes, especially when they're acting out of the ordinary.

  11. CatHerder - she'd had blood work done a few weeks prior; this doctor did an ultrasound, arthroscopic exam (she's had some back end mobility problems), a urine culture test (to rule out a UTI that is lingering and antibiotic-resistant). No health problems that they could find!

    They've concluded this is behavioral!!! Soooo, after all my confinements, etc. she has an appt. with a behaviorist.
