Update on Mac (XP from TIP)
The vet called this morning and said that Mac pulled out his fluids catheter last night and didn't eat all night, but she was pretty sure it was because he was huddled in the corner of the cage in rage. Seriously, THIS is what my cat is like at the vet:

Well, maybe not that bad...but he is not polite. So instead of keeping him another night, she sent him home. She is giving him subcutaneous antibiotics, which is why she was hesitant, but since I gave them to the dogs at my last job, she trusts me to do them with him, too (it's essentially the same: pick up skin on his upper back and stick a needle in).
As soon as they brought him into the room he was growling and screaming, but once he figured out it was me, he started headbutting me and purring and was the happiest cat I've ever seen. He hasn't left my side since we got home, except for a bit when he decided to inhale some food.
He is acting so much better. The doctor still isn't 100% sure what's going on with him, but he'll be on the antibiotics for a couple of weeks and we'll go from there. The other cats are still unhappy with him because he smells like the vet.
I'm so happy that I came home with good news today instead of bad.

Yay! Glad he's feeling better! It really sounds like he just caught a quick and nasty virus (probably what was going on with Sammy too) and is recovering quickly. Eating is a good sign!
PS: That cat literally made me LOL! A little snort couldn't help escaping my attempts to keep my giggle fit silent (at work).
