It sounds as if she's having seizures of some sort? Thoughts and

Hi. Tonight I thought Isabella was dead when I arrived. She was
lying very still under the futon. When I trouched her, she cried
out. When I moved her a little closer to me she cried more and
seemed very upset. It looked like her legs were having spasms. She
moved very slowly and stiffly. She did crouch ~ still under the
futon ~ and lick gravy off the canned food.
Later, another caretaker went to check on her because I was
worried. She called me and said Isabella was dead ~ she was on her
back, legs straight in the air. I headed over and she called me
back and said she was moving. She eventually came out and walked
around, licked gravy and ate a few bites of food. She was her old
friendly self, talking and rubbing.
Has anyone else experienced these symptoms? Isabella has (short)
history of high fever and anemia. She has more recently cut back on
food intake despite taking prednisone.I planned to take her in
tomorrow for weight and fever check. Vet not there tomorrow so I
may wait until Friday for physical exam. Foster mom said she cried
out last night when she touched her front legs.
Vet plans to put her on an appetite stimulant that you give every
3 days. I don't remember the name.
any input greatly appreciated...
