Oh no...I'm very sick!

Well, my one day of feeling better didn't last long as I got worse overnight and I definitely didn't feel like eating this morning. Ms. Diana at Strawberry was very worried about my lack of appetite and not drinking water, but mostly because I was blinking my eyes a lot...the light was hurting them. She called Ms. Delilah but she was out of town for some weight pull thing (not sure what that is, but sounds hard!) so she called Auntie Margie and Ms. Kim to make arrangements for me. Ms. Kim picked me up from Strawberry and I wasn't too sure what we were doing so I walked real slow and stopped just short of the car. She had to carry me the rest of the way and she mentioned something about how she should've brought the doggie stroller with her! That would've been nice as I just wasn't feeling well enough to walk very far.

We sure did drive a long way but Ms. Kim was so friendly, I came up between the front seat and she gave me lots of petting! I really liked that and when she would stop (why would she stop...maybe her arm was sore from all the petting? Nah!!), I would paw her to let her know I wanted her to keep going! We finally got to a place and once I got in, it seemed familiar; it was Ms. Kim's vet. She said the vets here was very nice and it was where she took her fur-kids, and he was going to check me out and see why I was feeling so bad. Another nice lady, or so I thought until she stuck something cold up my bootie (how rude!), came and checked me out a little. Then a nice guy came and I found out he was the vet. He did his little exam and told Ms. Kim that he suspected I had distemper which neither of them looked happy about. I don't quite know what that is but Ms. Kim told me it wasn't a good thing and that I needed lots of doggie prayers cause she didn't want me to go to doggie heaven like Max did a few months ago.

She put me back in the car for another ride and this time I recognized the place we were at, Auntie Margie's clinic! We went in and I got tons of love from Auntie Margie and she gave me lots of pets too! Auntie Margie was so silly thinking she could get me to walk all the way to the back but I was just waiting for Ms. Kim to feel sorry for me and carry me (maybe she is the doggie stroller?) and I got to lay on a big fluffy thing! I was so exhausted, I just laid there but kept blinking my eyes so I could see what was going on. Then Auntie Margie gave me a bowl full of wet stuff and I tried a little bit of it...it tasted great and I ate the whole thing plus 2 more bowls!! Wooohooo!!! I was starving since I wasn't able to eat anything this morning!

Oh I almost forgot, there was another nice lady that came to the clinic, Ms. Jamie. She was a hoot doing whatever she was doing in the clinic; but she was so worried about her baby, Miko getting inflicted by my disease that she told Auntie Margie to stay away from her Miko! Auntie Margie then put me in my isolation cage so I could sleep and rest my eyes. She and Ms. Kim were talking about how Ms. Delilah would be so worried about me but hopefully since I ate on my own and I have a little more reactiveness that I'm a little further ahead than my cousin Max was when he first came in so they're all hoping for a miracle with me and that I will get better! I think Ms. Jamie and Auntie Margie are coming back tomorrow to take care of me so for now, I will just sleep in my nice comfy area with the "infamous pee spot" pad! Again, don't know what that means, but I like my new area.
