Good news (she said cautiously) after being very wobbly and actually wanting food but refusing everything, Sammi actually got back on the bed and had a nap, then after giving me some purrs and snuggles, she was much steadier when she got down and ate with appetite. Not the normal amount but she gave it a good go.
I’m much more hopeful now - earlier on I thought I was going to have to phone the vet tomorrow and have the ‘is it time?’ talk.
Crossing fingers for continued improvement!

Oh damn. She just threw up and she’s refusing breakfast.

Well she’s still alive.
And she hasn’t thrown up.
But she’s definitely not her snuggly purry self. 🙁

Crossing fingers for Melbcat.

Well that was what she said. I presume she’s talking about cats that don’t have hyperthyroidism.

Back home - blood tests showed nothing abnormal except for higher thyroid which is unusual in a senior cat. They gave us some fluids and that seems to have helped - when I got her home she went straight for the old food that Zooks hadn’t finished and then scarfed down the fresh stuff I gave her three mouthfuls at a time - didn’t finish it all but spread over three saucers probably a full saucer. So fingers crossed.

Still here: they were running behind because of an emergency.
Nothing obvious but they’re concerned that she’s dropped half a kilo since her last visit. Waiting on some blood results as I type.

Oooh never heard of that one!

Off the booze until tomorrow due to antibiotics. Have one for me.

Am at the vet with Sammi - poor love has been vomiting on and off since yesterday and hasn’t eaten more than a mouthful at a time.
Interestingly, she’s been a lot calmer coming up since it was just her so I had her beside me on the passenger seat instead of behind me in the back seat like I normally do when I take both of them.
She was calmly sitting in her carrier watching the passing traffic until the practice cat came and now she’s sitting up on alert. 😂

Just finished putting together one of those Kmart trolleys.
I feel like I’ve been stomped on by a troupe of tapdancers.

Ici.

Been wiped the last couple of days even though work was relatively easy. Trying to get the energy up to do more sorting and tidying. It doesn’t help that the cats seem to have missed me and have been demanding snuggles.

retrospective soothing noises

Had a new client assigned yesterday and one shift proved it wasn’t going to fly.
The co-ordinator was so quick to agree that I shouldn’t go again (and wanting to know what happened in detail) that I suspect this isn’t their first rodeo with her.
As I said to a friend, I’m too old and not getting paid enough to deal with that BS.

Don’t tempt me, Frodo!

Still got a lot of stuff piled around in boxes and was too tired to tackle it last weekend, so I will resist the lure of the beach and work on it today.

Ha, same

I’m trying to get the will to get out of bed and get ready for bed. 🤪

Grateful for this lovely weather - drive to client’s was much more pleasant and took ten minutes less
