But I suspect she's feeling miserable at the moment. She stays in the tiled

in a warmer room, she just wanders away and back to her cold tile floor.

Purrs that everything is okay with Spicey!


They said that it's a bad indicator when a senior cat's appetite (Spicey is
12yo) crashes like that. They ran some blood tests, gave her sub-q fluids,
and precautionary antibiotics.

She'll be back at the vet on Wednesday for a follow-up.

She seemed a bit limp and listless at TED, but when she got back home, she
was eager to hop out of her carrier and go back to her tile floor.


Dunno where you live, but here in Arizona we've had temperatures in the
100F+ range for a couple of weeks, now (with no end in sight). My
remaining cat seems to prefer the tile bathroom floor these days, even
though the A/C is functioning well.
