Well where to start?!?
We were looking after my cousin (one of many:roll:) last night who is approaching two..set her down to bed etc last night n she was fine..went out like a light.
About an hour or so afterwards Clementine kept running down from the landing bawling..and i mean bawling louder than a siamese!! She then started to go up to us and scratch at our clothes, tugging at us etc..then racing back upstairs bawling again...this carried on for about 10 minutes or so before i went to see what was up..it only turns out Chelsea, my wee cousin was having convulsions in the bed and had sorta swallowed her tounge and was choking! Well we got her to A&E-shes fine now BTW, convulsions due to her getting too hot apparentlly...and when the nurses asked us how we noticed and we replied the cat told us they gave us quite an erm..funny look, until we explained.
I DREAD to think what could have happened had it not been for Clementine 'noticing something'-and how strange that she would *realise* it wasnt right and come and fetch us-shes a life saver i guess! Needless to say she will be fed rich in tuna for the next few days..
Maybe we do underestimate our pets?
