RE: STROKE - My Shorty was having a series of strokes. He woke me up around 4 AM screaming. Never want to hear that sound again. I took him to the emergency vet that is open all night. We had to put him down as he was having strokes every 5 minutes and the doctor said enough damage had been done that he would not recover. I just could not stand listening to him scream. It might have been different if the vet thought he could do something for him and bring him out of it. ---- "Gloria B. Lane" <gbl...@aristotle.net> wrote: > Another possibility - a stroke.
