Stella’s vet visit

Stella was really good this time for the vet this time. The vet gave Stella subcutaneous fluids (Stella was great (boggle)) and also took a urine sample.

The initial results at the vet’s office were inconclusive. She said that often cats with kidney issues have such diluted urine that you don’t get enough white blood cells to know for sure.

We have sent off the urine sample to to be tested and cultured. This way we’ll know exactly which bateria it is and which antibiotic to treat it with. The test results should be in on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Expensive visit. Ouch.
