Just cleaned the cat box, looks like the mineral oil came out the correct end, along with some very small turds. Brownie sized, not the usual Maggie sized. I guess I'll call the vet tomorrow and report. It didn't look like all the mineral oil, 30cc is a good amount, so maybe she still has some in her...
I know we probably can't afford surgery if there's a huge hairball in there. So I may be telling Maggie good-bye soon too... but I'm not going to go there right now. I can physically feel my mind veer off from the very thought.
Updates as things occur...
Update 11:50pm: very soft, small blob of green poop, about the size of a ping pong ball. No apparent distress, she thoughtfully wiped her butt on the carpet (better than the bed), and is now having a crunch. Oh, that's something else -- when we got home from the vet she immediately went and had a nice crunch, drank some water, then had another crunch. She ate her bedtime snacks with alacrity, and there has been NO VOMITING AT ALL. By now she would have hurked up at least the food she ate earlier, and probably the snacks about 3 minutes after eating them.
