Meow's first illness

Meow is in the midst of her first real kitty illness. She hasn't eaten or drank since last Saturday, and has been vomiting. Last night Jay and I took her to the vet here in Los Angeles. It took two vet techs, 4 towels, and a vet to draw blood and give her fluids. That's my kitty... sick as I've ever seen her and still willing to kill someone. She seemed to be better that evening, but today is again lethargic and refusing to eat or drink. We are wating for test results right now, and may be making another trip for x-rays (she wouldn't allow any examination or even her temperature to be taken last night). I will keep everyone posted, but if you are trying to reach us and not getting any replies, we are very busy taking care of the wee one.

UPDATE: We went back to the vet today (Thursday) where they sedated her and did x-rays, physical exam, gave more fluids, an anti-inflammatory shot, trimmed her nails, and shaved around her tail. She has been prescribed an appetite stimulant, but will be force-fed if necessary, starting tomorrow. All labwork and x-rays look normal, so we can't figure out why exactly she is not eating. She has eaten some on her own today, so we really, really hope we don't have to syringe feed her. That will be very painful. For us.
