Aye, it was quite a scare for me as you could imagine...she seems fine now, like nothing even happened. She drank a lot of water and I have been checking her gums every few minutes and they are normal bright pink. She is playful and responsive.

I really think it could have been heat stroke. She came in from outside and was super hot to the touch, breathing heavily, and then the vomitting.

I just think it was too much play in too much heat (it's over 100 degrees here today.)

I put a wet rag on her and got her to drink some.

Sorry to cause such a scare but I was terrified and my first though (besides the vet) was to post on YT bc last time Abs got sick I got better advice here then from the vet!

Sigh...I am so relieved. Thanks everyone for the concern!!! It means so much to me. It does seem these things always happen on weekends...

Thank you all! I will contiue to monitor her throughout the day...
glad shes better

you can give her a water soak in the tub just to cool her off.. poor things with fur
