Paka is under the weather...
We think he may have nibbled on a poisonous plant (our fall mums... we didn't know they were poisonous!) so we got rid of all our plants just to be on the safe side. Anyway, needless to say, I'm pretty concerned about our little guy...
* UPDATE * We took Paka to the vet yesterday. He rode in his new kitty carrier and HOWLED the entire way. But when we got there, he pretty much behaved himself. Well, he did try to run away when they, um, "probed" him, but I can't blame him for that. The vet weighed him, took his temperature, and did a few other little exams on him and said that he seemed pretty healthy. She told us to take him home and if he gets sick again. that we should bring him in and they'll run some tests on him. She seemed to think that he probably did get into the plant (or something else he wasn't supposed to eat). He seems MUCH better today. He ate breakfast and seems pretty active... so I guess we'll just wait and see.

Oh too bad. Its so tough to have a sick pet. We've had enough problems with pets recently to last us a long time.
poor little paka. i hope he gets better soon.
Be sure and update and let us know how paka is doing.
Sorry to hear. Any update?
my kitty, natasha, use to get sick like that. My vet told me to take her off food and water for 24 hours and then give her cottage cheese. I know that seems like a long time and it would probably be hard for you to do b/c of the other kitties, but it works! I didn't know mums did that? poor paka!
