Layla has taken a turn for the worse... her breathing is rapid & shallow & she's extremely lethargic. These are the symptoms she had when she was diagnosed with leukaemia & we nearly lost her

We increased her Prednisone dosage last night, but so far, there's been no improvement. I'll be calling her Vet in the morning to bring him up to date & see what, if anything, can be done. If the steroids aren't working any more, I don't know that there's anything else...

I'm writing this so I can look back on it soon & laugh to myself that it was a false alarm & there was nothing to worry about. I hope I'm right

Oh, no, no, no, no. no.no.
I thought it was all good with her now. I don't want you to lose her. I want her to be healthy and enjoy life.

Maybe she has something bacterial and needs antibiotics. Rapid and shallow breathing could indicate a respiratory infection.

Can you possibly call the vet now? He or some other veterinarian may be on call.
Be careful with the prednisone because it can mask symptoms, especially of inflammation.

Keep us up-to-date please.

FEEL BETTER, LAYLA.
