So Gibson is still sluggish today... Do you guys think it's still from yesterday's heat? My appointment with the vet is tomorrow. She's eating and drinking just fine. Just won't move from the bed....

Always worth a look if you are genuinely concerned! My idiot was all floppy and slow once, so I went to the emergency clinic and he actually had a pretty high fever. They gave an injection and it was no joke as if someone had rebooted him, once home it was as if nothing had ever happened.

Yep great point. I booked an earlier appointment for tomorrow.

That's good to know! She might just have a tummy ache from eating something she shouldn't have. Lucky I have pet insurance!

It won't hurt her to go to the vet for a checkup. I suspect everything will be fine. It's a good opportunity for her to learn that a vet visit can be nice.

Your cat sounds like me whenever I have a day off work.
