OK, so at least I can say that:
a) I wasn't being paranoid
and
b) I didn't keep procrastinating too long

Lena-kitty has had a variety of exceedingly vague symptoms, gradually worsening over time and therefore hard to focus on or know how much weight to give... Things like not being able to jump up onto the living room furniture, just seeming a bit unsteady on her feet, shaking her head, and most recently a noticable decrease in grooming. On Saturday, she was vomiting and didn't eat Saturday evening or Sunday morning, then her appetite was back to normal Sunday evening and yesterday, then this AM she wasn't much interested in breakfast...

I had made this vet appointment on Saturday, then called yesterday to reschedule it in order to see the particular vet I like best -- but she had no appointments for the next couple of weeks, except on days when I'm in San Bruno -- so I decided not to change it after all, because even though she was eating at that point, I've just been worried and didn't want to wait that long.

The upshot: her ears are infected again. She's on antibiotics, and a new anti-nausea med -- the latter in pill form, which will be a new adventure :/

Plus I got a whole slew of tests to see if anything else is going on, results to be known in a couple of days.

All in all, I feel like an adequate if not outstanding cat-mom.
