My Sierra

Our precious cat Sierra has had a cold so to speak for the past week. Yesterday morning I let her in the house after being outside all night and she was coughing and looked very cold. All day I kept an eye on her and she wasnt getting any better. So by 11:30 last night she was in bad shape and I was worried. Off we went to the emergency hospital to be looked at. The vet said she looked pretty bad and gave her oxygen and took an ex-ray hoping to find the problem. Her airways were not blocked but there was a lot of gas in her intestinal tract. Poor thing, was in a lot of pain. The vet said she thinks that Sierra has Esophotitus. Inflamation of the esophogus. She was put on anti-inflamatory and something to take the gas away. I;m hoping she gets better very soon. She had a nice quiet nap with no coughing or hacking and got some well needed rest. I take her for a follow up visit with a new vet, St. Francis tomorrow. I'm praying for healing hands to bring her health back. Say a prayer for her too, please.
