Frank has pancreatitis. The vet says this can happen without any obvious cause, and is likely to sort itself out with our needing to do anything more than keep him hydrated etc. She wants to keep him in the hospital for 48 hours. The problem is that he's supposed to go to the cattery on Monday, for ten days, and there's no way to know if he'll be well enough in time. Even if he is, I don't know whether he might have a relapse during that time. This is going to be an interesting couple of days. I better go look at my travel insurance details.

speaking as a fellow sufferer with a wonky gallbladder, tell frankus he has my full sympathies. *snuzzles him*

if he has a relapse, won't the cattery people be able to deal with it? do they have his vet's number? they should be able to call you/the vet if something comes up and give him appropriate treatment. (which, of course, does nothing at all to soothe your nerves, or your desire to be with him while he's ill, but might still allow your travel plans to go ahead unconflicted)

Man, it's rough when the small, furry family members are sick -- adding travel on top of that makes it even worse. Best wishes to all!
