Isis got sick at some point yesterday and hid herself away. I wasn’t able to find her until late in the evening. Isis had apparently been throwing up as well, although I didn’t actually find the stuff until later.

Dr. Calista’s office doesn’t open until 9am on Saturdays, so I had to wait around before I could actually get her up there. In the end I had to have my mother drive me because Isis’ state had deteriorated and I just couldn’t bring myself to put her in a cat carrier; I instead opted to wrap her in a towel and hold her on the way up.

They’re running tests on her right now and aren’t sure what’s wrong. What they do know is that she’s badly dehydrated now and having a hard time breathing because of fluid in her lung.

They’re going to do some x-rays on her, she’s in an oxygen tank, and on an IV. Because of her age (she’s almost 15 human years) they suspect it could be a heart problem, kidney failure, even her liver. But they don’t know and have to run tests.

I’m at my mother’s office right now, waiting on a phone call to let me know more. Said they’d have more information in about an hour or so. I’m just so worried for her. Isis has been with me for so long, she’s my little baby. I just want her better and her lovable self again.

What’s worst yet is the preliminary bill, just to figure out what’s wrong is more than I have. So far the bill is at $549.05 and I’ve put down $150. I have no idea how I’m gonna pay for this either. Well, I guess I could always go the route of title loans or asset based lenders or something. I dunno. I guess, worry about how I’ll pay her bills later and worry about what’s happening to Isis now? Just freaking out now.
