| - About 2 weeks ago, we thought our cat was not going to make it. She was really weak, not eating, not drinking, throwing up, had diarrhea with traces of blood and was giving hints that she was giving up. We thought it was a kidney issue, and we knew how deadly and non forgiving that was.
We took her to another veterinarian and they wanted to do all kinds of tests, which would have been very costly, before even treating her. We wanted a second opinion; so, they sent her home without any treatment. That was a very sad day, because her health further deterioratad that evening.
We had an appointment with All About Cats the next day and we just braced ourselves to hear the bad news. We didn't let our kids go to the vet, just in case we had to make unpleasant decisions on our Princess' health.
When my wife got there, I got an optimistic call. She said that they were so caring, paid so much attention to our 14 year old cat, and had the expertise and experience to suggest quick solutions and treatments to make our cat comfortable. Also, the suggestions they had were less expensive than all the tests the other vet was suggesting. They wanted to do things step by step to save some money and observe her as well.
My wife came home with our Princess, armed with some antibiotics and other medication to keep her going. We canceled a quick summer trip to tend to our cat.
The next day, our cat woke us up eating and walking around like normal... It was a bit surreal compared to a few days ago, we were so overjoyed! She was responding positively to what they suggested!
We had to go back for a revisit and we decided to continue the treatment and do the blood work. After a day, we found out that it was not the kidney issue we were so afraid of. We were so relieved...
Today, our cat is so calm and back to her normal self... Even better than how she was just before she got sick...
We thank you All About Cats, Dr. McCormick, the other vets and the assistants for all your help, care, concern, and your sensitivity to family's budgets.
You are an amazing team and we would not take our cat anywhere else and would recommend your services to all cat lovers!
Thank you! Our Princess has a new lease in life! She looks fully recovered! And we have you to thank for this wonderful turn of event! Thank you!
