Clem must be feeling better- he's knocking things off the coffee table.
It's been a long week. We think Clem is cured, but have cancelled our Christmas travel plans so we can be sure. He spent all day Thursday at the vet, getting various types of fancier and more expensive x-rays. In the end, all we know is he was really gassy, throwing up, and generally unhappy with life. When we brought him home Thursday night, he was nearly back to his old self- and he wanted to eat, which wasn't the case for the past couple of days. Yesterday, he went back to the vet for one last x-ray and has been normal, happy Clem ever since. This is a very good thing, not just because we want the kitty to be happy and not feel sick, but also because the vet thought we might have to get him emergency surgery. We decided to spend the weekend at home, just me, Dave and the cats, to make sure Clem is still feeling okay, and because we now have *no time* to spend in New Hampshire with my family. We'll make up the visit sometime next week, when all is much calmer.
For today, I'd like to finish writing my paper, so I can take a day off and then look it over and fix what needs to be fixed. Like I said, it's been a long week.
I hope everyone has nice weekends.

It just occurred to me that it sounds like Clem's mysterious illness is just like that of my parents' cat Ella. Same thing happened, she wouldn't eat, was throwing up all the time, and Mom took her to the vet's and they did X-rays and found nothing. She's fine now. Very bizarre. Must be some weird kitty illness going around. :(
