All glibness aside... turns out Kona was (is?) actually quite sick.
She spent all night Thursday night throwing up- almost every 1/2 hour-45 minutes like clockwork. And she had awful diarrhea, or tried to go but nothing would come. So neither one of us got much sleep...
I got her up to the vet Friday morning. Turns out she has something called Hemorrhalgic Gastroenteritis (HGE). Long diagnosis short - her gut is inflammed from an overload of bad bacteria, which causes internal bleeding.
She spent the night at the Vet hospital, on IV fluids, getting antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea meds. I think I will be able to bring her home this morning. She may be on a "recovery" diet of white rice, boiled chicken and cottage cheese for a few days.
I just want her home & well. We miss her terribly, especially Ami.
