If Chloe's breathing gets slower, then I'd have to check her into emergency care right away but for now, she's stable and will be fine for a while. The tricky thing is that I have to FEED her somehow. She won't take anything in -- throws up immediately. So my challenge will be to try to keep her hydrated as much as possible and to keep her blood sugar level more or less stabalized. Thanks again for all your help. I'll keep you posted.

I really hope you can get her to a different vet asap.. From what you described it sounds very serious. Just because she is stable doesn't mean she will be that way for very long. I don't mean to sound so bad, I just want you to know that these little ones can go down hill VERY FAST! They don't have any reserves to help keep them going. I would definetly get her some water or pedialyte by syringe in the mean time, and some nutrical. Then get her straight to the vet. Please keep us updated!
