Get Well Soon!

Poor baby Belle was really sick yesterday.  Really sick.  I was up with her all night while she had some sort of stomach bug, so soon as the vet was available in the morning, we were in the office.  They were concerned about her and had us wait in the cat room so Belle didn't infect anyone else.

After a shot to make the stomach bug go away, a shot to give her fluids because she was dehydrated, and getting blood from her to check her liver, kidneys and white blood cell count, poor Belle was pooped.  She was so exhausted.  

We got the results this morning that her enzyme levels were normal, so her sickness was some sort of scary fluke.  She's back to her bouncy puppy self this morning, and it's so nice to see her happy again.  Yesterday she was flat out pitiful.  Wanna see what I mean?

Those things on her arms were from where they took blood.  Poor baby was so tiny they couldn't get blood from one arm and had to have the other one stuck too.  It broke my heart when they brought her back in the room looking like this.  She wouldn't even look at the camera for the picture.

So once we got to my parents house (who's right down the road from the vet), both me and Belle were exhausted.  Belle had no interest in walking or playing, so we both cuddled up together and took a much needed nap.  Poor, sweet Belle.  I'm so glad she's back to her bouncy puppy self!
