Blood, Stress, and Tears
The vet has declared Pheen regulated at three, so the glucose curves are over. He won't need to go back to the vet, except for his regular checkups, and to get his vaccines, which were put off for all this. The vet wants to give him some time to calm down, so he suggested next month for his needles.
Unfortunately, just like there was no way to tell Pheen why this started, there's no way to tell him it's over. And his stress, instead of going away, is increasing. In addition to all the other horrid mess, he's crying. No, not wailing. Crying. With tears.
A constant stream of tears.
So, we're both a soppy mess.
I pretty much have the vet on speed dial now, and I had to call him again for this. I was thinking eye infection. His eyes had been streaming a little off and on during this whole thing. It's just last night it was the waterworks. He could barely see. Boo was leaving a puddle, not just on his chest, but everywhere he went. Miserable. But he could catch anything being at the vets all day once a week. Hell, I dose myself in purell after all my doctor appointments. The second I leave the doctor's office, baby. That's where sick lives.
But no, the vet said if it's clear it's not an infection. Nearly all cats have a virus. It's usually dormant, but in times of severe stress, they'll cry.
I didn't know a cat could cry.
I'd rather never known.
