Bad Day for Sinatra


The good news today is our Bengal cat got a lovely new home and has already settled in nicely.

The bad news today is our elderly Siamese mix, Sinatra, is very ill. His foster home reported that he'd been vomiting blood and brought him into Banfield. He spent the day at the vet getting fluids and x-rays and then I took him to the emergency vet. They are going to monitor him for the night and let us know tomorrow if he needs surgery. The whole thing is likely to cost us thousands of dollars but we are hopeful that he will make a full recovery.

Update: Sinatra had exploratory surgery and biopsies which all turned out negative. He's on a special diet now and seems to be feeling much better.
