If this is the case, hopefully the vet will be able to 'wash' anything out. Good call on taking her to the vet. Sometimes wait and see is not a risk worth taking.
But as a note to everyone, Lillies are highly toxic to cats and the smallest amount will cause the cat to go into renal failure within hours. They don't have to eat the plant, if they just brush past it and get pollen on them, they can later injest the pollen by cleaning themselves.

Hi Helz, thanks for that. I don't THINK we have got lillies in the garden. The vet also said about how nasty they can be. My girlfriends father is our real gardener so I will check with him.
I am glad we got her there this morning now. It is just so out of character for her. Will the blood test show up anything else that might be wrong with her or do the vets only look for one certain thing at a time, in this instance kidney damage.
I pray she is ok
