He was puky, then became unsteady, swaying back & forth while standing still, then his legs slowly collapsed and he acted like he was unable to walk. I videoed the behavior and took him as soon as the vet opened. After I watched his deterioration for 8 hours, as soon as he got to the vet, he started walking around the room, sniffing all the corners and acted like nothing had ever been wrong. The vet thought I was a histrionic idiot, I'm sure, because I felt that way about myself when we got there and he was fine. I thought the little s__t was gonna die. He scared me to death. Drama.. .
LOL. That's how Tibbe tells me something is wrong - he becomes the "John Barrymore" of classic drama fame. But it is effective and gets me to getting him help immediately so we stop bad things early, so far before anything he has has had time to get very bad. And if he's uncomfortable, so am I, so we might as well head for the vet right then. GFY for getting him in right away, mommie!
