Purrs for Lindy?

I took Lindy to the doctor today, because she hasn't been eating for the
past couple of days (except some after I made the appointment), and she has
thrown up a small amount about once a day for the past week.
We saw my regular vet's new partner, who looks about 15 years old. The
good news is that Lindy's heart and lungs are good. She needs some dental
work, if they decide she can handle the anesthetic. They took blood and
urine and gave her an infusion (She was a little dehydrated) and an
appetite stimulant. I have a new kind of food to try, as well as more of
the appetite stimulant (Mirzapine). She's supposed to get 1/4 tablet every
3 days. They said if I can't get it down her, bring her in and they'll do
it. She didn't say whether or not they'd charge for that. They'll call
tomorrow with the test results and we'll see where we go from here.

She yelled for her dinner when we got home, and I gave it to her, even
though it was a little early. She is actually eating, but we'll see how
much she gets down - and if she keeps it down.
