I got up this morning to find that Levi, in all his sweetness, had left me some flowers before leaving for work. He had left a branch of lilies on the kitchen counter, not knowing how toxic they are to cats. To my horror, the vase had been knocked over and several leaf tips had been chewed off.
Without knowing which cat ate it, we took all three to the clinic where the vet administered a drug to make them vomit. Both Monty and Cheddar had eaten the plant, and now they're spending the next 24-48 hrs at the emergency clinic for fluids and another blood & kidney test tomorrow. We didn't find any sign that Sadie had gotten into it, but we'll still be keeping a close eye on her. The vet said that since we had started treatment right away, the prognosis is good and that hopefully the IV fluids will prevent damage to their kidneys.
It wasn't a good way to start the day.
